Overview

Encapsulates the notion of a MIME type. Can be used at render time, for example, with:

class PostsController < ActionController::Base
  def show
    @post = Post.find(params[:id])

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html
      format.ics { render body: @post.to_ics, mime_type: Mime::Type.lookup("text/calendar")  }
      format.xml { render xml: @post }
    end
  end
end

.register_alias(string, symbol, extension_synonyms = []) ⇒ Object

Registers an alias that's not used on MIME type lookup, but can be referenced directly. Especially useful for rendering different HTML versions depending on the user agent, like an iPhone.
