typer.parse(req.headers['content-type']).
typer.parse(res)
var obj = typer.parse(res)
Parse the content-type header set on the given res. Short-cut for
typer.parse(res.getHeader('content-type')).
typer.format(obj)
var obj = typer.format({type: 'image', subtype: 'svg', suffix: 'xml'})
Format an object into a media type string. This will return a string of the
mime type for the given object. For the properties of the object, see the
