Mimetype aliases
================
Mimetype Aliases
================
ownCloud allows administrators to specify aliases for mimetypes. This makes it
possible to show more specific icons for certain mimetypes. Take as an example
audio files. It is nicer if they show a nice audio icon instead of the default
file icon.
ownCloud allows you to create aliases for mimetypes, so that you can display
custom icons for files. For example, you might want a nice audio icon for audio
files instead of the default file icon.
By default ownCloud is distributed with ``config/mimetypealiases.dist.json``.
Administrators should not modify this file, as it will be replaced when
ownCloud is updated.
By default ownCloud is distributed with
``owncloud/resources/config/mimetypealiases.dist.json``.
Do not modify this file, as it will be replaced when ownCloud is updated.
Instead, create your own ``owncloud/resources/config/mimetypealiases.json``
file with your custom aliases. Use the same syntax as in
``owncloud/resources/config/mimetypealiases.dist.json``.
Adding custom aliases
---------------------
Once you have made changes to your ``mimetypealiases.json``, use the ``occ``
command to propagate the changes through the system. This example is for
Ubuntu Linux::
Custom mimetype aliases can be added to ``config/mimetypealiases.json``, using
the same syntax as ``config/mimetypealiases.dist.json``. Some common mimetypes
that may be useful in creating aliases are:
$ sudo -u www-data php occ maintenance:mimetype:update-js
See :doc:`../configuration_server/occ_command` to learn more about ``occ``.
