XLS and CSV files not recognized

Open guillaumefgn opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Hello,

I tried to recognize several mime types, including XLS and CSV. Here are the results I have:

csv - NULL doc - application/msword docx - application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document xls - NULL xlsx - application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet xml - application/xml

Is it a bug that CSV & XLS files are not recognized? Can I do something to recognized those mime types?

Thanks!

Wait are you talking about mime types or file extensions? csv and xls file extensions should be supported. What is missing right now from the library is next file handling and docx zip file processing both of which are special cases unfortunately.

Maybe duplicate of #38

Hi,

I was wondering if this was fixed or still an issue as I am using version 1.16 en csv extension is returing null. Or maybe there is a work around?

Cheers!
