Re: [sleuthkit-developers] Help Writing a Module - isMimeType() - SortedSet

[Richard C. <rco...@ba...>]

You could call the following ImageUtils to get a SortedSet of image MIME
types:

public static SortedSet<String> getSupportedImageMimeTypes()

You could also call this FIleTypeDetector method to see all the values that
can be stored in the field returned by AbstractFile.getMIMEType:

    /**
     * Gets a sorted set of the file types that can be detected: the MIME
types
     * detected by Tika (without optional parameters), the custom MIME types
     * defined by Autopsy, and any custom MIME types defined by the user.
     *
     * @return A list of all detectable file types.
     *
     * @throws FileTypeDetectorInitException If an error occurs while
assembling
     *                                       the list of types
     */
    public static synchronized SortedSet<String> getDetectedTypes() throws
FileTypeDetectorInitException
