1.17.2 / 2011-10-25

  • Bug Fixes:
    • Fixed an issue with Ruby 1.9 and file encoding.

1.17.1 / 2011-10-23

1.16

  • Made compatible with Ruby 1.8.6, 1.8.7, and 1.9.1.
  • Switched to the ‘hoe’ gem system and added a lot of build-time tools.
  • Updated the MIME types to the list based on the values in the Perl library version 1.27. Also updated based on external source information and bug reports.
  • This is the last planned version of MIME::Types 1.x. Work will be starting soon on MIME::Types 2.x with richer data querying mechanisms and support for external data sources.

1.15

  • Removed lib/mime/type.rb to form a single MIME::Types database source. It is unlikely that one will ever need MIME::Type without MIME::Types.
  • Re-synchronized the MIME type list with the sources, focusing primarily on the IANA list.
  • Added more detailed source information for MIME::Type objects.
  • Changed MIME::Types from a module to a class with a default instance. There should be no difference in usage.
  • Removed MIME::Types::DATA_VERSION; it is now an attribute on the MIME::Types instance.
  • NOTE: Synchronization with the Perl version of MIME::Types is no longer a priority as of this release. The data format and information has changed.
  • Removed MIME::Types.by_suffix and MIME::Types.by_mediatype.

1.13.1

  • Fixed a problem with the installer running tests. This now works.
  • Improved the implementation of MIME::Type.signature?
  • Moved code around to use the class << self idiom instead of always prepending the module/class name.
  • Added two new best-guess implementations of functions found in Perl‘s MIME::Types implementation (1.13). Do not rely on these until the purpose and implementation is stabilised.
  • Updated the MIME list to reflect changes noted by Ville Skyttä <ville.skytta@iki.fi>.
  • Added a new constant to MIME::Types, DATA_VERSION. This will allow the Ruby version number to be updated separately from the Perl version while keeping the MIME Type list version in sync.

1.13

  ! WARNING: This version changes the API of MIME::Types !
  ! WARNING: This version is compatible with Ruby 1.8 and higher ONLY !
  • Removed dependency on InstallPackage; offering 1.13 as either .tar.gz or .gem.
  • Split into two files, mime/type.rb and mime/types.rb. This will make maintaining the list of changes easier.
  • Changed the MIME::Type construction API. Accepts only a single String argument (but does no named type-checking) and yields self.
  • Removed private methods init_extensions, init_encoding, and init_system and replaced with extensions=, encoding=, and system=.
  • Added default_encoding to return ‘quoted-printable’ or ‘base64’ depending on the media type of the MIME type.
  • Added raw_media_type and raw_sub_type to provide the non-simplified versions of the media type and subtype.
  • Alternative constructors MIME::Type.from_array, MIME::Type.from_hash, and MIME::Type.from_mime_type added to compensate for the removal of named type checking in the original constructor.
  • Added to_str, to_a, and to_hash methods. The latter two will provide output suitable for use in from_array and from_hash.
  • Removed "binary" encoding and enforced the use of a valid encoding string.
  • Added system? returning true if the MIME::Type is an OS-specific MIME::Type.
  • Added platform? returning true if the MIME::Type is an OS-specific MIME::Type for the current RUBY_PLATFORM.
  • Added like? returning true if the simplified type matches the other value provided. #<’application/x-excel’>.like?(‘application/excel’) is true.
  • Added complete? returning true if the MIME::Type specifies an extension list.
  • Updated the MIME type list to reflect additions by Mark Overmeer for Perl‘s MIME::Types 1.12 and the official IANA list as of 2004.04.06. A number of formerly "registered" MIME types are now no longer registered (e.g., application/excel is now application/x-excel). This ensures that the simplified type still works with applications, but does not report an unregistered type as registered.
  • Restored MIME type list to Mark Overmeer‘s format to facilitate easy exchange between the two projects.
  • Added additional unit tests from Mark Overmeer‘s 1.12 version.

1.07

  • Changed version numbering to match Perl MIME::Types 1.07.
  • Re-synchronized with Mark Overmeer‘s list in Perl PMIME::Types 1.07.
  • [NN Poster] updated the attributes for the PGP types.

1.005

  • Changed to Phil Thomson‘s InstallPackage.
  • Added several types from Perl MIME::Types 1.005.
  • Cleaned up data format; some data formats will show up with proper data now.

1.004

  • Updated to match Perl MIME::Types 1.004, links credited to Dan Puro. Adds new reference list to www.indiana.edu/cgi-bin-local/mimetypes
  • Removed InvalidType and replaced with TypeError.
  • Changed instances of type to class.
  • Cleaned up how simplified versions are created.

1.003
