picker doesn't return type for PDF

[Mactub07]

I've tried to download PDF file from ICloud and got
DocumentPicker.show({
filetype: ['com.adobe.pdf'],
}, (error, res) => {
const allowedType = ["image/jpeg", "image/png", "pdf"];

            if (allowedType.includes(res.type) && res.fileSize < 2000000) {
                const Name = "Document " + res.fileName.split(".")[0];

                // todo GuidKey should gets from uploadFile endpoint response
                const file = { Name, GuidKey: "" };
                this.props.uploadDocument(res.uri, res.type, res.fileName, { Code: this.props.onBoardingCode});

                // this.props.addFileToCurrentDocument(file);
            } else if (!allowedType.includes(res.type)) {
                Alert.alert("You can upload only jpeg, png or pdf");
            } else {
                Alert.alert("You can not upload a file larger than two megabytes");
            }
        });

If print res I've got fileName, fileSize and uri, but not "type" is there a bug?

The iOS implementation doesn't return a mime type:

Yeah that sucks...

I found a solution to this. hfsTypeCode doesn't work, but Cocoa does have an API for interacting Apple's their database of UTIs and can be used to ask for the appropriate UTI for a file extension and then a mime type for a UTI.
