It provides functions to guess content types from filenames with optional body data inspection, detect text content types from raw text, and parse MIME type strings into their components. The package wraps and extends Python's standard mimetypes module with additional MIME type mappings and convenience functions.\n\nThe package has minimal dependencies\u2014only setuptools\u2014making it easy to integrate into existing projects. It supports Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13 on both CPython and PyPy. The codebase is stable and production-ready, though releases are infrequent; it is typically used as a dependency in larger Zope ecosystem projects rather than as a standalone tool.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need MIME type detection with minimal overhead. The package is stable, has no known vulnerabilities, and installs with low friction. The unclear license treatment requires verification before use in proprietary or GPL-licensed projects. The aging maintenance status is not a blocker for a mature utility."},"id":"zope-contenttype","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/zope-contenttype","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/zope-contenttype.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/zope-contenttype/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-09-12","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"zope.contenttype","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Zope contenttype"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":172811,"position":10323,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"6.0"}
