Laravel File::mimeType memory issues

There is an issue with one of my jobs, where I'm using a code block

$mimeType = \File::mimeType($localFile); // $localFile - absolute path of the file

This brings an memory issues with message below

local.ERROR: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 156161944 bytes) {"exception":"[object] (Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalErrorException(code: 1): Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 156161944 bytes) at /var/www/project/vendor/league/flysystem/src/Util/MimeType.php:209)

It's clear, that by increasing memory limit this issue will be resolved, but I'm looking for something more, let's say flexible or elegant way of detecting file mime type like I have done for file upload to s3 and avoids memory issues using below code

$disk = Storage::disk('s3');
$disk->put($path, fopen($localFile, 'r+'));

Is there any way to detect mime type without increasing memory limit?

Thanks

So it looks like the root cause is coming from the encoding of libmagic. For v1 of Flysystems(which laravel is currently using in V8) they added a dependency that you can use to get the mimetype by file type, which should resolve the issue.

Original Issue - https://github.com/thephpleague/flysystem/issues/1172

Dependency - https://github.com/thephpleague/mime-type-detection

So you would include the new detector and use one of the different types to get the mime type without relying on libmagic.

$detector = new \League\MimeTypeDetection\FinfoMimeTypeDetector();
$mimeType = $detector->detectMimeTypeFromPath($localFile);
Storage::put($path, $contents, ['mimetype' => $mimeType]);
