Summary: Dynamic mime-types
Product: openZIM
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: zimlib
AssignedTo: tommi(a)tntnet.org
ReportedBy: emmanuel(a)engelhart.org

Estimated Hours: 0.0
Currently, the ZIM format can only support a limited and predefined set of
document mime-types.
You can get the list of supported mime-types here:
http://www.openzim.org/ZIM_File_Format#Mime_types
Mime-types are represented by a number in a ZIM file, and the mapping is done
statically by the zimlib.
This means than you can not store document with custom mime-type.
This is a problem for me because I have people who use Kiwix and deal with
other mime-types, for example: archives or binaries.
I think, this is a necessary improvement to make this mime-type table dynamic.
I see two solutions :
* The ZIM file creator specify it manually during the creation process.
* It goes automatically (also during the creation process).
