Closes #2151

Feat: client binding for persistent-storage file download — downloadPersistentStorageFile

Problem

Ocean Node now serves raw file bytes out of a persistent-storage bucket — a new
persistentStorageDownloadFile command reachable over both HTTP and P2P (see ocean-node
#1466, "download a file from a
persistent-storage bucket"). ocean.js already exposes the rest of the persistent-storage surface
(create/update/get buckets, list/upload/get-object/delete files) but had no way to pull a file's
bytes back down
: consumers would have to hand-roll a fetch/dialAndStream and the byte-stream
plumbing themselves. This PR adds the typed client binding so the download is first-class on
ProviderInstance, transport-agnostic, exactly like the sibling persistent-storage methods.

Approach

Follow the existing Provider layering — BaseProvider is the transport-dispatching façade that
routes to HttpProvider or P2pProvider via getImpl(nodeUri). Because the node returns raw bytes
(not JSON), the return shape mirrors getComputeResult: an AsyncIterable<Uint8Array> (the existing
ComputeResultStream type). This is memory-safe for large files, matches how P2P already streams
bytes back, and lets callers consume incrementally.

  • HTTP GETs /api/services/persistentStorage/buckets/:bucketId/files/:fileName and wraps the
    response body with the existing responseBodyToAsyncIterable helper.
  • P2P dispatches the persistentStorageDownloadFile command and reuses getComputeResult's
    bulk-transfer streaming path (dialAndStream + status-frame check + flow-controlled generator).

Both accept an optional offset to resume a partial download (HTTP Range header / P2P payload
field), matching getComputeResult.

Changes (5 files, +162)

1. Types — src/@types/Provider.ts

  • PERSISTENT_STORAGE_DOWNLOAD_FILE: 'persistentStorageDownloadFile' added to PROTOCOL_COMMANDS,
    next to the other persistent-storage commands. No new response type — the return is
    ComputeResultStream (bytes), already exported via the @types barrel.

2. HTTP transport — src/services/providers/HttpProvider.ts

  • downloadPersistentStorageFile(nodeUri, signerOrAuthToken, bucketId, fileName, offset?, signal?):
    signs the request with the standard address + nonce + command scheme (via
    getSignedCommandParams), GETs the file route (no /object suffix — that is the metadata call),
    sets an Authorization header for auth-token callers, adds Range: bytes=<offset>- when resuming,
    and returns responseBodyToAsyncIterable(response.body).

3. P2P transport — src/services/providers/P2pProvider.ts

  • downloadPersistentStorageFile(...) with the same signature. Cloned from getComputeResult's
    streaming path rather than the JSON sendP2pCommand helper: dialAndStream, first-frame
    status-JSON check, then a flow-controlled async function* with the same idle-timeout, backpressure
    (resumeReads/pauseReads/readFrame), clean-end handling and stream-abort/release cleanup.

4. Façade — src/services/providers/BaseProvider.ts

  • One public method taking nodeUri: OceanNode, delegating through getImpl(nodeUri) so HTTP/P2P
    selection is automatic. Placed alongside the other persistent-storage delegators.

5. Tests — test/integration/Provider.test.ts

  • Made the uploaded file content deterministic (fileContent) so the round-trip can be asserted.
  • New "downloads the uploaded file bytes" test: calls downloadPersistentStorageFile, collects the
    async-iterable chunks, and asserts the decoded bytes equal the uploaded content. Runs under both
    the HTTP and P2P integration matrices, and is skipped when the node lacks persistent storage.

Why it's safe

  • Additive & backwards-compatible. One new read-only client method; no existing method,
    signature, or type changes.
  • Consistent with the surface it joins. Same signing scheme, façade dispatch, and naming
    (downloadPersistentStorageFile) as the existing upload/delete/getPersistentStorageFile* methods;
    same byte-streaming machinery as getComputeResult.
  • Depends on node support. A node without the persistentStorageDownloadFile command will reject
    the request; the new test only runs where persistent storage is enabled.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for downloading files from persistent storage over HTTP and P2P connections.
    • Downloads support streaming, authorization, cancellation, and resuming from a specified byte offset.
    • Service restart requests can now include optional metadata.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved reliability when P2P download or compute-result streams encounter errors.
    • Improved persistent-storage integration coverage by verifying downloaded files match their uploaded content.
    • Added coverage confirming correct behavior for job-related routes.

Overall risk: low

Summary:
This PR implements persistent storage file downloading across BaseProvider, HttpProvider, and P2pProvider. The implementation is solid, including proper flow control for large file streams in P2pProvider. However, a CI workflow configuration temporarily points to a PR version of the ocean-node which should be updated prior to merging.

Comments:
• [WARNING][other] You have pinned NODE_VERSION to pr-1466. Make sure to revert this or update it to the proper release version/tag before merging, to avoid testing against an ephemeral PR build on main.
• [WARNING][other] Same as above, ensure this pr-1466 environment variable override is removed or updated to a stable tag before merging this pull request.
• [INFO][performance] Excellent handling of backpressure and flow control here! This is crucial for correctly downloading large files without exhausting memory or desynchronizing the frame parser.
• [INFO][style] Good use of the HTTP Range header for implementing the offset parameter.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds persistent storage file downloads through the base provider, HTTP transport, and P2P streaming transport. Integration tests verify downloaded content and jobs routes. CI sets the Barge node version for unit and integration jobs. Service restart requests can include metadata.

Changes

Persistent storage download

Layer / File(s) Summary
Download contract and HTTP transport
src/@types/Provider.ts, src/services/providers/BaseProvider.ts, src/services/providers/HttpProvider.ts
Adds the download command and provider method. HTTP downloads use signed parameters, optional authorization, byte ranges, response validation, and streamed response bodies.
P2P download streaming
src/services/providers/P2pProvider.ts
Adds signed P2P downloads with status validation, flow control, cancellation, timeout handling, and stream cleanup. It also resets failed compute-result streams before releasing concurrency slots.
Integration validation and CI wiring
test/integration/Provider.test.ts, .github/workflows/ci.yml
Tests downloaded content and jobs routes. Sets NODE_VERSION: main in unit and integration Barge startup steps.

Service restart metadata

Layer / File(s) Summary
Service restart metadata forwarding
src/services/providers/HttpProvider.ts, src/services/providers/P2pProvider.ts
HTTP requests forward optional metadata. P2P documentation describes restart modes and the unencrypted metadata label bag.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to d72e9

The new download API is not ready to merge because P2P downloads may expose credentials, return corrupted file bytes, or retain transfer capacity after cancellation.

Reset the response stream before rethrowing a status error.

The catch block only releases the concurrency slot. It leaves the response stream paused and unconsumed. If a peer sends an error status and keeps the stream open, that stream retains connection capacity until the peer closes it. Call abortResponseStream(stream, e) before release().

Proposed fix
     } catch (e) {
       // Nothing is going to consume the generator, so hand the slot back here.

Copy each frame before yielding it.

The surrounding buffered path copies readFrame(...) because the frame may be a view over storage owned by LpFrameReader. This generator yields the original value and then reads the next frame. Consumers that retain chunks can observe overwritten bytes and reconstruct a corrupt file.

Proposed fix
-          const chunk = await readFrame(frames, signal, idleTimeout)
+          const chunk = new Uint8Array(

Keep cancellation active before generator iteration.

After downloadPersistentStorageFile returns, signal is not observed until the async generator starts its first readFrame. If the caller aborts after the promise resolves but before iteration starts, the generator finally does not run. The paused stream remains open, and the concurrency slot stays occupied until the peer closes the transfer.

Register a one-shot abort listener before returning the generator. Remove it during generator cleanup and reset the stream when it fires.
