How to set MIME type of application/vnd.apple.pkpass in order to share pass by link or email

问题

I just created an app and a pass, so I can add the pass to the PassBook in iPod, but I cannot share the pass by email or link from web server. From the documentation I read from Apple, I need to add a MIME type as application/vnd.apple.pkpass. However, I don't understand clearly what steps should I do. I don't know how to use MIME type.

How should I add this MIME type in order to use pass from my web service?

回答1:

Apache

Add the following line to either:

the .htaccess in the directory serving your .pkpass, or
to the mime.types file, or
to your appache httpd.conf or virtuatl server .conf file

Then restart Apache (not required if adding to .htaccess)

AddType application/vnd.apple.pkpass    pkpass

nginx

Add the following line to your mime.types file and restart nginx

application/vnd.apple.pkpass    pkpass;

IIS

Open IIS Manager and navigate to the level you want to manage.
In Features View, double-click MIME Types.
In the Actions pane, click Add.
In the Add MIME Type .pkpass
Type application.vnd.pkpass n the MIME text box
Click OK
Restart IIS

If you are serving your file via a script and are not able to edit your web server config you could add the following line before any content is sent:

PHP

header('Content-Type: application/vnd.apple.pkpass');

WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "application/vnd.apple.pkpass");

For a pure PHP solution, add your .pkpass bundle to the server, then create the following file and name this file pass.php.

<?php   
$pkpass_file = '/path/to/your/.pkpass/file/GenericMemberCard.pkpass';

header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Content-Type: application/vnd.apple.pkpass");
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="pass.pkpass"');
clearstatcache();
$filesize = filesize($pkpass_file);
if ($filesize)
    header("Content-Length: ". $filesize);
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
if (filemtime($pkpass_file)) {
    date_default_timezone_set("UTC");
    header('Last-Modified: ' . date("D, d M Y H:i:s", filemtime($pkpass_file)) . ' GMT');
}
flush();
readfile($pkpass_file);

Then create a second file linking to the file you created above.

<a href="pass.php">Click to download your pass</a>
