Features

Supports these platforms:

  • Android
  • iOS
  • Linux
  • MacOS
  • Web
  • Windows

There are a few caveats about this package:

  • On the web it caches the contents in a Blob and eventually saves the file in browser's default location.
  • On desktop it saves the file in absolute or relative path.
  • On mobile it saves the file in absolute or relative path, but we should ask/ensure if the app has the required permissions.
  • On the web, not supported in IE or Edge (prior version 18), or in Safari (prior version 10.1).

Getting started

In your pubspec.yaml file add:

dependencies:
  download: any

Then, in your code import:

import 'package:download/download.dart';

Usage

final stream = Stream.fromIterable('Hello World!'.codeUnits);
download(stream, 'hello.txt');

or

import 'package:http/http.dart';
const url = 'http://example.com';

final stream = get(url);
download(stream, 'hello.txt');

Please refer to /example folder for a working example.

How do I choose a repository?

Start with your use case, compare repository activity, and check the original project before adopting it.

  1. Search by repository name, owner or description, then narrow the results by topic.
  2. Compare stars, forks and recent pushes. Stars show community interest, not a guarantee of quality.
  3. Read the README, license and issues on GitHub before using a project.
