finfo_file
It seems there is quite some inconsistency in distributions and loading of magic files.
On Archlinux, the file is located here:
/usr/share/misc/file/magic.mgc
But this:
<?php
$fi = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME, '/usr/share/misc/file/magic');
$fi->file('/tmp/fubar.txt');
?>
Actually segfaults, where if I type the full name (including the file extension:)
<?php
$fi = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME, '/usr/share/misc/file/magic.mgc'); // added ".mgc"
$fi->file('/tmp/fubar.txt');
?>
It works as expected, so I guess something goes wrong with "A .mime and/or .mgc suffix is added if needed."
finfo_open
finfo->__construct
(PHP >= 5.3.0, PECL fileinfo >= 0.1.0)
finfo_open -- finfo->__construct — 新しい fileinfo リソースを作成する
説明
手続き型
resource finfo_open
([ int $options = FILEINFO_NONE
[, string $magic_file = NULL
]] )
オブジェクト指向型 (コンストラクタ)
finfo
__construct
([ int $options = FILEINFO_NONE
[, string $magic_file = NULL
]] )
この関数は、magic データベースをオープンしてそのリソースを返します。
パラメータ
- options
-
ひとつあるいは複数のFileinfo 定数の組み合わせ。
- magic_file
-
magic データベースファイルの名前。通常は /path/to/magic.mime のようになります。 指定されなかった場合は、環境変数 MAGIC の値が使用されます。この環境変数も設定されていない場合、 /usr/share/misc/magic をデフォルトで使用します。 必要に応じて、.mime や .mgc が追加されます。
返り値
成功した場合に magic データベースリソース、失敗した場合に FALSE を返します。
例
例1 オブジェクト指向型
<?php
$finfo = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME, "/usr/share/misc/magic"); // return mime type ala mimetype extension
if (!$finfo) {
echo "fileinfo データベースのオープンに失敗しました";
exit();
}
/* 指定したファイルの mime タイプを取得します */
$filename = "/usr/local/something.txt";
echo $finfo->file($filename);
?>
例2 手続き型
<?php
$finfo = finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME, "/usr/share/misc/magic"); // return mime type ala mimetype extension
if (!$finfo) {
echo "fileinfo データベースのオープンに失敗しました";
exit();
}
/* 指定したファイルの mime タイプを取得します */
$filename = "/usr/local/something.txt";
echo finfo_file($finfo, $filename);
/* 接続を閉じます */
finfo_close($finfo);
?>

Since it costed me some time to find the needed magic database files for Windows, just a hint:
The last release of the GnuWin32 project with both needed files (magic and magic.mime) currently was "file-4.23".
All releases after 4.23 to 4.25-1 did not contain both needed files.
Hope that helps.

Platform: WinXP-SP2, PHP5.2.5, MySQL 5.0, Apache 2.2.8
After reading former notes, I wasn't able to load my magic database: 'magic.mime' file (donwloaded from GnuWin32 project, zipped with the binary files v4.21). I always got an invalid $finfo object or finfo_open(...) returned FALSE.
In order to be able to load the 'magic.mime' file, Fileinfo library (bundled in PHP5.2.5) also requires 'magic' file.
For example:
1. Database:
c:\php\magic.mime
c:\php\magic
2. PHP Code:
<?php
$filname = 'c:\php\php.ini';
$finfo = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME, 'c:\php\magic');
if (!$finfo) return false;
echo $finfo->file($filename);
?>
For further info see: http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=7555
Pay attention to comments added by 'christophe dot charron dot xul at gmail dot com'
NOTE: Before upgrading to PHP5.2.5, I was working with PHP5.2.1 and it only required 'magic.mime' file.

The current version (1.04) doesnt support a different mime.magic database than the server default.
(the documentation is thus not correct)
Ubuntu default location is '/usr/share/file/magic'. In order for the examples to work all finfo_open()-commands must be issued with the extra location accordingly:
<?php
$file = "/path/to/file.jpg";
$handle = finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME, '/usr/share/file/magic');
$mime_type = finfo_file($handle,$file);
?>

Couldn't get finfo to return the mimetype in the way expected so i made a function to do it with system()
<?php
function get_mime_type($filepath) {
ob_start();
system("file -i -b {$filepath}");
$output = ob_get_clean();
$output = explode("; ",$output);
if ( is_array($output) ) {
$output = $output[0];
}
return $output;
}
?>
hope it works for other people too

On Windows systems people might find that this always returns "application/x-dpkg".
There are 2 ways of solving this problem:
1. Get the mime-magic database file from GnuWin32 at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32/>
2. You can manually "fix" the mime-magic file by editing it and escaping all lines starting with !, thus changing each one to \!
