[Ruby FileMagic] Checks on ARGF (STDIN)
by Michael Uplawski from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6NZSS)
Good morning
I must verify Mime-types and/or the Magic of data which is read via STDIN (ARGF in Ruby ... and others) (I presume)
The only thing that I can currently come up with, this morning, under pressure of time, is a temporary file.
So basically, I *can* do what I want. But I find it clumsy and ugly.
AFAIS the obstruction comes from the limited functionality of the FileMagic gem, but I may be erring (StreamMagic or STDINMagic is what I seek, I guess).
Would anybody have a better idea? Do as if I was starting to program and this were my very first project, ever. Wrong project!" would be a pertinent answer, but let us exclude this for now. TY.
