Cordova Download Plugin

⚠️ DEPRECATED, use https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file-transfer instead

Simple plugin allows native downloads from javascript and get notified via a progress callback.

The plugin is known to work from cordova 1.7 to 2.0

  • multiple concurrent downloads
  • progress callbacks for downloads and unzip operations
  • auto detect ZIP files, unzip then delete original zip
  • files are extracted in the NSDocumentDirectoryof the application but you can override
  • iOS only at the moment

Proudly made by the revolunet team

Example :

window.plugins.Download.start(
    // File to download
    'https://github.com/revolunet/incubator-cordova-js/zipball/master', 
    // success callback
    function() { $(#'progress').html("SUCCESS"); },
    // failure callback
    function() { $(#'progress').html("FAILURE"); },
    // progress callback
    function(infos) { 
        var statusText = window.plugins.Download.status[infos.status];
        $(#'progress').html =  statusText + ' ' + infos.progress;
    }
    // here you can specify an absolute output directory where to place the file
    // eg: '/Documents/mydownloads'
);

There is a full working example at index.html.
