Usage

const MIME = require('bare-mime')

const mime = MIME.parse('text/plain;charset=utf-8')
console.log(mime.type)                      // 'text'
console.log(mime.subtype)                   // 'plain'
console.log(mime.parameters.get('charset')) // 'utf-8'

API

const mime = new MIME(type, subtype[, parameters])

Construct a MIME type. parameters is optional and defaults to an empty Map. Exposes mime.type, mime.subtype, and mime.parameters (a map of parameter names to values).

const mime = MIME.parse(input)

Parse a MIME-type string into a MIME. Returns null on failure. The type and subtype are lowercased, and leading/trailing HTTP whitespace is stripped from the input. If the same parameter name appears more than once, the first occurrence is used and subsequent duplicates are ignored.
