假设我有一个完整的文件路径:(/sdcard/tlogo.png)。我想知道它的mime类型。

我为它创建了一个函数

public static String getMimeType(File file, Context context)    
{
    Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(file);
    ContentResolver cR = context.getContentResolver();
    MimeTypeMap mime = MimeTypeMap.getSingleton();
    String type = mime.getExtensionFromMimeType(cR.getType(uri));
    return type;
}

但当我调用它时,它返回null。

File file = new File(filePath);
String fileType=CommonFunctions.getMimeType(file, context);

当前回答

Intent myIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                        File file = new File(filePatch); 
                        Uri uris = Uri.fromFile(file);
                        String mimetype = null;
                        if 
(uris.getScheme().equals(ContentResolver.SCHEME_CONTENT)) {
                            ContentResolver cr = 
getApplicationContext().getContentResolver();
                            mimetype = cr.getType(uris);
                        } else {
                            String fileExtension = 
MimeTypeMap.getFileExtensionFromUrl(uris.toString());
mimetype =  MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().getMimeTypeFromExtension(fileExtension.toLowerCase());
                        }

其他回答

首先,你应该考虑调用MimeTypeMap#getMimeTypeFromExtension(),就像这样:

// url = file path or whatever suitable URL you want.
public static String getMimeType(String url) {
    String type = null;
    String extension = MimeTypeMap.getFileExtensionFromUrl(url);
    if (extension != null) {
        type = MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().getMimeTypeFromExtension(extension);
    }
    return type;
}

Jens的回答的优化版本与零安全和回退类型。

@NonNull
static String getMimeType(@NonNull File file) {
    String type = null;
    final String url = file.toString();
    final String extension = MimeTypeMap.getFileExtensionFromUrl(url);
    if (extension != null) {
        type = MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().getMimeTypeFromExtension(extension.toLowerCase());
    }
    if (type == null) {
        type = "image/*"; // fallback type. You might set it to */*
    }
    return type;
}

重要:getFileExtensionFromUrl()只适用于小写字母!

好处:上面的方法是一个不那么冗长的Kotlin扩展函数:

fun File.getMimeType(fallback: String = "image/*"): String {
    return MimeTypeMap.getFileExtensionFromUrl(toString())
            ?.run { MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().getMimeTypeFromExtension(toLowerCase()) }
            ?: fallback // You might set it to */*
}
Intent myIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                        File file = new File(filePatch); 
                        Uri uris = Uri.fromFile(file);
                        String mimetype = null;
                        if 
(uris.getScheme().equals(ContentResolver.SCHEME_CONTENT)) {
                            ContentResolver cr = 
getApplicationContext().getContentResolver();
                            mimetype = cr.getType(uris);
                        } else {
                            String fileExtension = 
MimeTypeMap.getFileExtensionFromUrl(uris.toString());
mimetype =  MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().getMimeTypeFromExtension(fileExtension.toLowerCase());
                        }

这里没有一个答案是完美的。以下是一个结合了所有热门答案的最佳元素的答案:

public final class FileUtil {

    // By default, Android doesn't provide support for JSON
    public static final String MIME_TYPE_JSON = "application/json";

    @Nullable
    public static String getMimeType(@NonNull Context context, @NonNull Uri uri) {

        String mimeType = null;
        if (uri.getScheme().equals(ContentResolver.SCHEME_CONTENT)) {
            ContentResolver cr = context.getContentResolver();
            mimeType = cr.getType(uri);
        } else {
            String fileExtension = getExtension(uri.toString());

            if(fileExtension == null){
                return null;
            }

            mimeType = MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().getMimeTypeFromExtension(
                    fileExtension.toLowerCase());

            if(mimeType == null){
                // Handle the misc file extensions
                return handleMiscFileExtensions(fileExtension);
            }
        }
        return mimeType;
    }

    @Nullable
    private static String getExtension(@Nullable String fileName){

        if(fileName == null || TextUtils.isEmpty(fileName)){
            return null;
        }

        char[] arrayOfFilename = fileName.toCharArray();
        for(int i = arrayOfFilename.length-1; i > 0; i--){
            if(arrayOfFilename[i] == '.'){
                return fileName.substring(i+1, fileName.length());
            }
        }
        return null;
    }

    @Nullable
    private static String handleMiscFileExtensions(@NonNull String extension){

        if(extension.equals("json")){
            return MIME_TYPE_JSON;
        }
        else{
            return null;
        }
    }
}

上面的解决方案在.rar文件的情况下返回null,使用URLConnection.guessContentTypeFromName(url)在这种情况下工作。
