# fileidentifier This repo is a library for both Rust and Javascript (Node.js). It does not identify files using file extension but using magic number. So It helps you to check files better. ## Installation * For Rust, you can install it from [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/fileidentifier) * For Node.js, It is available in [npm](https://npmjs.com/package/fileidentifier) ## How to use in Rust: ```rust use std::fs; use fileidentifier::check::{FileFormat, get_file_format, is_png}; fn main() -> Result<(), Box> { let file = fs::read("/usr/bin/whatever")?; assert_eq!(FileFormat::Script, get_file_format(&file)); // or you can check the file format let png = fs::read("/file/path/x.png")?; assert_eq!(true, is_png(&png)); Ok(()) } ``` in Node.js: ```javascript const fi = require('fileidentifier') let file = fs::readFileSync('/file/path/x.png') console.log(fi.getFileFormat(file)) // It will print 'png' // check the file format console.log(fi.isPng(file)) // It will print true ```
