    def content_type_equals(type1, type2)

type1 :

a content type string.

type2 :

a content type string.

Returns :

True if the two strings are identical or equivalent, False otherwise.

The content_type_equals() function compares two content types for equality.

gio.content_type_from_mime_type

    def content_type_from_mime_type(mime_type)

mime_type :

a mime type string.

Returns :

The content type or None when does not know.

The content_type_from_mime_type() function tries to find a content type based on the mime type name.

gio.content_type_get_description

    def content_type_get_description(type)

type :

a content type string.

Returns :

a short description of the content type type.

The content_type_get_description() function gets the human readable description of the content type.

gio.content_type_get_icon

    def content_type_get_mime_type(type)

type :

a content type string.

Returns :

the registered mime-type for the given type, or None if unknown.

The content_type_get_mime_type() function gets the mime-type for the content type. If one is registered

gio.content_type_guess

    def content_type_guess(filename, data, want_uncertain)

filename :

a string, or None.

data :

a stream of data, or None.

want_uncertain :

a flag indicating the certainty of the result.

Returns :

a string indicating a guessed content type for the given data.

The content_type_guess() function guesses the content type based on example data. If the function is uncertain, result_uncertain will be set to True. Either filename or data may be None, in which case the guess will be based solely on the other argument.
