Info Needed: Why Partial Match and what it does? about simplemagic HOT 11 CLOSED

At https://github.com/j256/simplemagic/wiki, only 2 links : central maven repository and github works. Rest all down.

I've got a bad bug that I'm looking at now and I hope to release a new version once that's done.

a. What was the need of Partial Match?

Sorry for the delay on this @se7en007 . The partial match is needed because in magic files, often there are multiple matches and later ones may be better. For example, SVG images are XML matches but the SVG+XML match is better.

Documentation in github wiki seems to point to urls which redirect to external websites.

I sold my 256.com domain a while back. I should have migrated all of those links to 256stuff.com. Which URL are you talking about that has out of date links?

b. When Partial Match happens, what happens to ContentType - Multiple Values/Single Value always?

It should return good information. Can you give me an example of where it doesn't?

from simplemagic.

No worries for the delay.

The library gives partial match on webp files.

So, read from google docs that webp files are in RIFF container. If I run on webp files, it gives There was a partial match, RIFF, type OTHER, msg 'RIFF (little-endian) data'. This is also a feature request as enum com.j256.simplemagic.ContentType#WEBP is provided but it is not what returned but enum com.j256.simplemagic.ContentType#OTHER.

For now I am using workaround:

if(contentInfo.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("RIFF")) return ImageMimeType.WEBP;

Fixed thanks.

Hey, can you turn the WEBP request into another issue so I can track it right? Thanks.
