Use Magika in the browser or in Node!

npm install magika

Simple usage in Node:

import { readFile } from "fs/promises";
import { MagikaNode as Magika } from "magika";

const data = await readFile("some file");
const magika = new Magika();
await magika.load();
const prediction = await magika.identifyBytes(data);
console.log(prediction);

Simple usage in the browser:

import { Magika } from "magika";

const file = new File(["# Hello I am a markdown file"], "hello.md");
const fileBytes = new Uint8Array(await file.arrayBuffer());
const magika = new Magika();
await magika.load();
const prediction = await magika.identifyBytes(fileBytes);
console.log(prediction);

For more, see our documentation.

Please use the official CLI (with pip install magika) as it can perform batch processing and search for files recursivelyw. Read more about that in the main README. This one is useful to load the TensorflowJS model and see that it works as expected.

Install it with npm install -g magika. You can then run it by executing magika-js <some files>

MagikaJS is designed flexible in how you provide the model and configuration file to it.

Both the Node and browser versions accept URLs to asyncronously load these two assets.

await magika.load({
        modelURL: "https://...",
        configURL: "https://...",
    });

The Node version also allows to load local files.

await magika.load({
        modelPath: './assets/...',
        configPath: './assets/...'
    });

Using the model hosted On Github:

yarn install
yarn run build
yarn run bin -- README.md

Using the local model:

yarn install
yarn run build
(cd ../website; yarn install; yarn run dev) &
yarn run bin --model-url http://localhost:5173/magika/model/model.json --config-url http://localhost:5173/magika/model/config.json ../tests_data/mitra/*

Execute:

yarn install
yarn run build
yarn run test
