File Metadata Attributes¶
On this page
Overview¶
You can define metadata attributes for each file that you host with MongoDB Realm. Metadata attributes map to standard HTTP headers and allow you to optionally configure how Realm serves your files as well as how clients that request resources should handle them. This page provides examples and describes the purpose of each available attribute.
Content-Type¶
The Content-Type file attribute indicates the media type of the file.
Note
If you do not specify a Content-Type attribute for a file, Realm
will attempt to automatically add a Content-Type attribute to it
based on the file extension.
For example, Realm would automatically add the attribute
Content-Type: application/html to the file myPage.html.
Content-Disposition¶
The Content-Disposition file attribute indicates to client applications (such as your web browser) whether the file should be downloaded as an attachment or displayed inline as a web page.
Content-Encoding¶
The Content-Encoding file attribute indicates any encodings that were applied to the file. Client applications can use this header to determine how to properly decode the file.
Content-Language¶
The Content-Language file attribute optionally specifies the language used by the file’s intended target audience. This attribute does not necessarily represent the language that file is actually written in.
Cache-Control¶
The Cache-Control file attribute instructs CDN servers on how they should handle cached copies of the file.
