API

Generated API docs

Basic usage

import { download } from "@thi.ng/dl-asset";

const src = "Hellö wörld!";

// mime type derived from file extension (.txt)
download("hello.txt", src, {
    utf8: true,
    expire: 1000
});

// with explicit MIME type string
download("hello.txt", src, {
    mime: "text/plain",
    utf8: true,
    expire: 1000
});

...or using MIME type preset from @thi.ng/mime.

import { preferredType } from "@thi.ng/mime";

downloadWithMime("hello.txt", src, {
    // here mandatory to provide MIME type
    mime: preferredType("txt"), // text/plain
    utf8: true,
    expire: 1000
});

Simplified canvas downloads

Since v2.1.0, HTML canvas downloads can be simplified using downloadCanvas():

import { downloadCanvas } from "@thi.ng/dl-asset";

// download as PNG (default)
downloadCanvas(canvas, "file-name-without-ext");

// download as JPG or WebP with given quality
downloadCanvas(canvas, "file-name-without-ext", "jpeg", 0.9);

downloadCanvas(canvas, "file-name-without-ext", "webp", 0.9);
