electron-download-manager
Manage downloadItems for Angular from Electron's BrowserWindows without user interaction, allowing single file download and bulk downloading asynchronously
Why?
- Register global listener that attaches to all newly created BrowserWindow instances
- Automatically download the file to a given folder, without user prompt
- Callback when download has completed (or failed)
- Bulk download: pass a bunch of links and all will get downloaded, with a callback once they're all done.
Install
$ add "angular-electron-download-manager":"require('angular-electron-download-manager')" to module.exports in webpack.config

const electron = require('electron').remote; const app = electron.app; const DownloadManager = require("electron-download-manager");

url: File
}, function(error, url){
if(error){
console.log("ERROR: " + url);
return;
}
console.log("DONE: " + url);
