When carrying out the development of iOS macOS，We often need to interact and file，For example, association and open a certain type of file，Well, this time，Your name suffix used in this document are not，But it's UTI。
UTI is a unified file type name，It sets out what should be a file type，Rather than suffixes to determine，For example, txt，text，json are plain text files，They are public.text
Then，usually，For the well-known file types，You can go toApple's official pageView the list，Here we show the most common extensions should correspond to the UTI for you。
But these are only a small part，There are many known file suffix does not exist in this list among，such as .plist ，Then，We want to how to do it? Themselves to declare it?
Obviously，Declared himself a common suffix is the existence of hidden，Then，You can use the command line tools on macOS to determine the file type。
First of all，You need to have a .plist file，Then you can execute the following command：
|
1 |
mdls -name kMDItemContentTypeTree "your/path/to/file.plist" |
This type of tree can get the file，The topmost is its type。
The results you get are as follows：
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
kMDItemContentTypeTree = ( "com.apple.property-list", "public.data", "public.item" ) |
Then clearly， with.apple.property-list It is .plist Of the UTI。
