module Padrino::Mailer::Mime

Handles MIME type declarations for mail delivery.

Constants

MIME_TYPES

List of common mime-types, selected from various sources according to their usefulness for an email scope.

You can add your own mime types like:

Padrino::Mailer::Mime::MIME_TYPES.merge!("text/xml" => :xml)

Public Class Methods

mime_type(mime, fallback=:plain) click to toggle source

Returns Symbol with mime type if found, otherwise use fallback. mime should be the content type like “text/plain” fallback may be any symbol.

Also see the documentation for {MIME_TYPES}.

@param [String] mime

The mime alias to fetch (i.e 'text/plain').

@param [Symbol] fallback

The fallback mime to use if +mime+ doesn't exist.

@example

Padrino::Mailer::Mime.mime_type('text/plain')
# => :plain
Padrino::Mailer::Mime.mime_type('text/html')
# => :html

This is a shortcut for:

Padrino::Mailer::Mime::MIME_TYPES.fetch('text/plain', :plain)
# File lib/padrino-mailer/mime.rb, line 29
def self.mime_type(mime, fallback=:plain)
  MIME_TYPES.fetch(mime.to_s.split(';').first.to_s.downcase, fallback)
end
