Sebastian Nagel commented on TIKA-2648:
---------------------------------------
Yes, but also if a web site is mirrored (e.g. using wget) the downloaded files
are saved with the extension {{.php}} but are HTML (could be also PDF or any
other MIME type). If you then call Tika on the files, the solution does not
work. But I agree that [~gbouchar]'s fix is better than nothing. The access
pattern (file or HTTP) is also a strong hint whether to trust the file
extension or not. It was more a question from my side, whether a more
generalized solution is possible: give the file extension {{.php}} in general
less weight and rely on the content itself or (if available) the Content-Type
sent in HTTP header? It could be something similar to the magic priorities. --
But in any case it's better to have a solution now applicable for web crawlers.

> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Gerard Bouchar
> Priority: Major
>
> When using tika to detect a mime type given only an URL containing ".php" and
> a content-type hint of "text/html", it guesses "text/x-php", whereas one
> could expect "text/html".
> {code}
> TikaConfig tika = new TikaConfig();
> Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
> String url = "https://www.facebook.com/home.php";
> metadata.set(Metadata.RESOURCE_NAME_KEY, url);
> metadata.set(Metadata.CONTENT_TYPE, "text/html");
> MediaType type = tika.getDetector().detect(null, metadata);
> System.out.println(url + " is of type " + type.toString());
> // Prints https://www.facebook.com/home.php is of type text/x-php
> {code}
