Getting Started

• NOTE: This package will automatically create the directories the file_path has if it doesn't exist!

    const { Downloader } = require("@elara-services/downloader");

    // Without default directory. ('path' required to be included per-download)
    const client = new Downloader();

    // With default directory 
    const client = new Downloader(`${process.cwd()}/downloads`); // Will download all files to the downloads folder. 
Copy

Set Default Directory/Folder

    // SET
    // NOTE: This WILL create the directory if it doesn't exist!
    client.setDefaultDirectory(`${process.cwd()}/downloads`); // Sets the default directory as `/downloads`

    // RESET
    client.setDefaultDirectory(null);
Copy

Download File:

    // Will extract the file name and extension from the link.
    const r = await client.file(`LINK_HERE`); // Downloads the file to the default directory.

    // With options.
    const r = await client.file(`LINK_HERE`, {
        name: `boop`, // [OPTIONAL]: Only use a file name not the extension! (extension is automatically set!)
        path: `${process.cwd()}/images`, // [OPTIONAL]: OR `${process.cwd()}/images/file_name.png` (an exact path name you want to use)
        extractFilename: false, // [OPTIONAL]: If false it won't extract the file name and use the one you provided.
        maxRedirects: 2, // [OPTIONAL]: The max redirects to follow before erroring out. (default: 21)
        // ...other_https_client_options,
    });
    // Use 'r'
Copy

Download Files:

    const r = await client.files([
        { url: `....` },
        { url: `....`, ...other_file_info_above },
    ]);
    // Returns { success: string[], errors: Error[] }
