Downloading multiple files

[gielcobben]

Hello, I try to use this package for downloading multiple files. I send the ipc download-subtitle multiple times but electron downloads just 1 (of 4 files, for example).

Renderer:

ipcRenderer.send("download-subtitle", { file, subtitle });

Main:

  ipcMain.on("download-subtitle", async (event, args) => {
    const downloadLocation = path.dirname(args.file.path);
    const filename = args.file.name.replace(/\.[^/.]+$/, "");
    const options = {
      saveAs: false,
      directory: downloadLocation,
      filename: `${filename}.srt`
    };
    const dl = await download(mainWindow, args.subtitle.url, options);
    console.log(dl.getSavePath());
  });

@gielcobben Did you find a solution or did it just start working?

@gielcobben @abmagil Was there ever a solution for this? Running into this issue now. The multiple downloads all overwrite eachother and only keep the last filename.

Any updates on this? I am running into the same issue
