What mime type would be used with .wat (text format) file extensions?

[summercms]

Did a search through this repo and couldn't my an answer.

The closet issue was found here: #573

I noticed @ericprud registered the IANA found here: #573 (comment)

.wat (text format)
.wasm (binary format)

.wasm uses application/wasm

What would .wat use?

I was expecting to see: text/wasm in IANA for the .wat file extension.

Should I use application/wasm for .wat file extensions?

Please advise.

p.s. Just working on a mime type app and want to register the correct mime-type to the .wat file extension.

Certainly not application/wasm. .wat is not intended for interchange, so I'm not sure it needs a mime type.

If you have to pick some media type, text.plain seems appropriate. If it isn't specific enough, i.e. some client is switching its behavior based on the media type for some foo.wat resource, it's probably being used for interchange and we have to revisit the above assumption.

@ericprud Thank you, will go with text/plain
