How to get the real extension type of Multipart file

Question

I have checked answer here, but here first they are saving it to some place and then reading it's stream and trying to check Mime type of that file

Get real file extension -Java code

But I want to know the file type before even saving it to the hard disk or at some place.

I know I can do it in these 2 more ways

File savedFile = new File(fileHandler.createTodayFolder(fileLocation) + "/" + name);
            Path path = Paths.get(file.get);
            Tika tika = new Tika();
            String checkType = tika.detect(path.toFile()); 

and

          Path path = Paths.get(savedFile.getPath());
          Files.probeContentType(path)

But in these both cases they are using somefile which is already at some location in hard disk. I want code something like this

  public @ResponseBody ResponseEntity<?> importResume(@RequestParam(value = "name", required = false) String name,
        @RequestParam("file") MultipartFile file) {

     if (file!=DESIRED_TYPE)
     {
       return Exception;
     }
}

Is there any way of doing this ???

Solution 1

For me, the cleanest solution:

using FilenameUtils of org.apache.commons.io:

String extension = FilenameUtils.getExtension(file.getOriginalFilename());

Solution 2

You can use Tika https://tika.apache.org/

//file is a MultipartFile    
if(!file.isEmpty)
{
  Tika tika = new Tika();
  String detectedType = tika.detect(file.getBytes());
  System.out.println(detectedType);
}

This should get you the mimetype without saving the file

Solution 3

Given the String filename, you can do:

filename.substring(filename.lastIndexOf(".") + 1);

Solution 4

You can map the mimetype to a existing extension by making a map...

You can use apache.mime.types for create one like it's done here:

That way you could obtain the extension from the content-type...

Solution 5

To get the file extension You could do:

multipartFile.getOriginalFilename().split("\\.")[1];

The name You get with:

 multipartFile.getOriginalFilename().split("\\.")[0];

What if the user upload a executable file with .doc extension? You could get the content type:

multipartFile.getContentType();

This will return a MIME type string. To get the correct file extension you could search the file name string for the last dot and then split it at this position.

You need to start streaming it (reading it) otherwise you can't check MIME.

[Vipul Jain]

@PetterFriberg- So what I am doing is correct or not ??

[Petter Friberg]

Its arrving in a stream I suppose, before saving to the hd check the stream for MIME type.... if ok you save otherwise not...

[Vipul Jain]

@PetterFriberg- It is coming as a multipart file, currently I am saving it as file and then checking it's type which is wrong for security purposes. searching ways to streaming it(reading it).

[KJEjava48]

@VipulJain did u find any solution??

[Vipul Jain]

But what if someone uploads a executable file and names it some doc file, then this will not work I think. Or if someone upload a file with 2 extension then also it will not work

[Nirmal Dhara]

This solution will not work if you have file name with dot , like - "Screen Shot 2017-03-03 at 6.56.04 PM.png".

[be4code]

This solution verifies only file extension which is not directly connected with mime type (i.e. someone uploaded .exe file with .doc extension)

[João Wiciuk]

Read carefully the answer: "[...] you could search the file name string for the last dot [...]"

[valik]

may be but he needs to access this from Multipartfile and not String as he has given in the eg. controller

[naXa stands with Ukraine]

Note from the documentation: The IllegalArgumentException is possible on Windows. This method used to have a hidden problem for names like "foo.exe:bar.txt". In this case, the name wouldn't be the name of a file, but the identifier of an alternate data stream (bar.txt) on the file foo.exe. The method used to return ".txt" here, which would be misleading. Commons IO 2.7, and later versions, are throwing an IllegalArgumentException for names like this.

[techfly]

@valik to get the file name, just use file.getOriginalFilename()
