File format determination library
Project description
File format determination library for Python
Getting Started
fleep is a library that determines file format by file signature (also known as “magic number”).
Installation
You can install fleep using pip. Simply run in CLI:
pip install fleep
Requirements
Python >= 3.0
Example
fleep has only one function get(). It takes two arguments:
input -> data to be processed: path to the file or array of bytes
output (optional) -> format of output values: “extension” (by default) or “mime”
Function returns a list, because magic number may refer to several formats.
There are some examples:
import fleep
print(fleep.get(input="path_to_windows_media_file")) # prints ['wma', 'wmv', 'asf']
import fleep
file = open("path_to_flac_audio_file", "rb").read(1024)
print(fleep.get(input=file, output="mime")) # prints ['audio/flac']
