HttpContentType

This gem allows you to check the Content-Type of any asset accessible via HTTP.

Compatible with Ruby >= 1.9, JRuby (1.9 mode) or Rubinius (1.9 mode).

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'http_content_type'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install http_content_type

Usage

checker = HttpContentType::Checker.new('http://domain.com/video.mp4')

checker.error?                # => false (true if there was an error requesting
                              #    the asset)
checker.found?                # => true (the asset was found, i.e. request
                              #    returned an `Net::HTTPSuccess` response)
checker.expected_content_type # => 'video/mp4' (the expected content type is
                              #    based on file extension but can also be
                              #    hardcoded with the :expected_content_type option)
checker.content_type          # => 'video/mp4'
checker.valid_content_type?   # => true
