A pure Elixir parser for HTTP Content-Type headers.

It's an extraction from Plug by Plataformatec.

  [
    {:content_type, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end

Usage

Parsing a content type:

import ContentType

content_type "text/plain"                        
# => {:ok, "text", "plain", %{}}

content_type "x-sample/json; charset=utf-8" 
# => {:ok, "x-sample", "json", %{"charset" => "utf-8"}}

content_type "APPLICATION/vnd.ms-data+XML"
# => {:ok, "application", "vnd.ms-data+xml", %{}}

content_type "x/*"
# => :error

Parsing a media type (with potential wildcards):

import ContentType

media_type "x/*"
# => {:ok, "x", "*", %{}}

media_type "text/*; q=1.0"
# => {:ok, "text", "*", %{"q" => "1.0"}}

media_type "x y"
# => :error
