I've been looking around in the PHP documentation for some time, but I found no way to convert a MIME type extension to a file type extension.

image_type_to_extension

Seems to work if the file is an image. In my particular case, the mime types are not for images, they are for font types: 'otf, ttf'.

You could use something like:

function getExtension ($mime_type){

    $extensions = array('image/jpeg' => 'jpeg',
                        'text/xml' => 'xml'
                       );

    // Add as many other Mime Types / File Extensions as you like

    return $extensions[$mime_type];

}

Note: not every MIME type has a fixed file extension. Also, MIME types like application/octet-stream can refer to multiple file extensions.

  • Thank you, I didn't know that octet-stream referred to multiple file extensions. Perhaps I should find a way to send the filename, although right now it is "blob" because of converting a dataURL to blob, I can change the filename but it doesn't work in firefox:http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8495301/changing-filename-in-blobbuilder-to-be-passed-as-formdata-on-xhr – TaylorMac May 12 '13 at 19:23

    For people arriving here late like me, here is a dedicated library that does the job: https://github.com/dflydev/dflydev-apache-mime-types – Romain May 02 '16 at 09:51
  • If you're not interested in a whole library to do the this simple job, here's a small php function for you: https://gist.github.com/alexcorvi/df8faecb59e86bee93411f6a7967df2c – Alex C. Jun 29 '16 at 10:07
  • If like me, you are trying to save a BLOB to file again, it is easier to save the filename with the BLOB content and mime type and then just grab that from the database when saving. – Anriëtte Myburgh Sep 02 '16 at 10:49
  • I have just came across the following bundle to convert mime type to file extension (and on the contrary - file extension to mime type): https://github.com/ralouphie/mimey What I find useful for file upload validation is that You can get an array of all mime types for the provided file extension. About to test it myself now... – Oleksii Zymovets Sep 22 '16 at 16:53
  • If you have access to Symfony components, they have a pretty nice Extension guesser: https://api.symfony.com/4.0/Symfony/Component/HttpFoundation/File/MimeType/ExtensionGuesser.html – Bert H Jun 12 '18 at 15:02

First get $mime type for an image, then explode the string by '/' which will return an array.

$extension = explode('/', $mime )[1];

  • I was wondering if this solution could work. But it will since mime type always has 2 parts separated by "/". A complete list of mime type that prove it https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types/Complete_list_of_MIME_types – BoCyrill Aug 21 '17 at 11:48
  • Yes, instead of putting a certain set of MIME types, it can simply be done like this.... – Md. Zubaer Ahammed Aug 21 '17 at 11:54

    This solution is nice but won't work for things like `application/msword` (`.doc`) etc. – user101289 Jun 06 '18 at 14:55
  • Okay, I see the second part of the mime_type isn't quite identical with the file extension. But, we are still getting a unique mime extension which we can use to identity file type and handle accordingly. Sucg as: ```application/vnd.ms-excel``` (.xls) or, ```application/msword``` (.doc) – Md. Zubaer Ahammed Jun 07 '18 at 20:58

It's very hard problem to tackle using just pure PHP. You'd have to manually manage MIME to extension mapping, as nearly all the previous answers point out.

Luckily, there's an excellent composer library that just does that for you:

composer require ralouphie/mimey

And then just:

<?php
$mimes = new \Mimey\MimeTypes;
$mimes->getExtension('application/x-font-otf'); // otf
$mimes->getAllExtensions('image/jpeg'); // array('jpeg', 'jpg', 'jpe')

  foreach( $all_mimes as $key => $value )

}

Also converted the list to an array, for convenient adding of mime types - gist

You can use function from manual comment by Josh Sean Not very nice, but working code:)

define(
  'APACHE_MIME_TYPES_URL',
  'http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/mime.types');

function generateUpToDateMimeArray($url){

  $s = array();
  foreach(@explode("\n",@file_get_contents($url))as $x)
    if(isset($x[0])&&$x[0]!=='#'&&preg_match_all('#([^\s]+)#',$x,$out)&&isset($out[1])&&($c=count($out[1]))>1)
        for($i=1;$i<$c;$i++)
            $s[]='&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\''.$out[1][$i].'\' => \''.$out[1][0].'\'';
  return @sort($s)?'$mime_types = array(<br />'.implode($s,',<br />').'<br />);':false;
}

echo generateUpToDateMimeArray(APACHE_MIME_TYPES_URL);

Full list of mime types you can find here.

But I think the best solution is to get info from the file '/etc/mime.types': Ready-made code

I wanted to use the above list in my database, so I converted it to SQL:

CREATE TABLE `mimetype` (
  `mimetype_id` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `mimetype` varchar(100) COLLATE utf16_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  `extension` varchar(10) COLLATE utf16_unicode_ci DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`mimetype_id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `mimetype` (`mimetype`)
);

You can use following class.

Usage:

<?php

    echo MapMimeTypeToExtension::getExtension('application/andrew-inset');

?>

Minified Class (I couldn't fit formatted PHP script in the reply):

<?php abstract class MapMimeTypeToExtension{public const

If you are using Laravel and you want to get the right file extension from mime-type (for example you have a temporary file without extension), take a look:

$fileName = '/some/file/name/without/extension/or/with/extension';
$ext = (new \Symfony\Component\Mime\MimeTypes)->getExtensions(\Illuminate\Support\Facades\File::mimeType($fileName))[0];

Not sure if this one will always return the right file extension, but you can use pathinfo() to get the extension from file name, instead of converting mime_types.

$Extension = pathinfo(basename($_FILES['image']['name']), PATHINFO_EXTENSION);

echo $Extension;

    This is probably not a good idea since you want to be able to determine the extension by mimetype not by filename. If the filename is userinput this could be dangerous in a security context. – Tim Strijdhorst Apr 26 '18 at 12:08
