npm install @file-type/xml
The following example shows how add the XML detector to file-type.
import {NodeFileTypeParser} from 'file-type';
import {detectXml} from '@file-type/xml';
const parser = new NodeFileTypeParser({customDetectors: [detectXml]});
const fileType = await parser.fromFile('example.kml');
console.log(fileType);
You can also use the XML detector outside file-type:
import {XmlTextDetector} from '@file-type/xml';
xmlTextDetector.write('<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path fill="#00CD9F"/></svg>');
const fileType = xmlTextDetector.fileType;
console.log(JSON.stringify(fileType)); // Outputs: {"ext":"svg","mime":"image/svg+xml"}
