Setting media_type for ui.download

[me21]

Question

Hello,

Is it possible to specify the media type for ui.download command? For example, 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet' to indicate the downloaded file is an Excel document.

I generate a Word document from the data entered by the user and would like to enable user to download that file. On another hand, the document can be easily recreated from the original data so I'm not sure I should save it to disk - maybe it's possible to keep it in memory?

Hi @me21,

I think this isn't possible at the moment. But I just created PR #2494 to add this feature with the next release.
