1. Type Definitions

1.1. DownloadHTTPHeaderFields

A set of HTTP header fields. 
    typedef object DownloadHTTPHeaderFields;

Since: 2.4

The key / value type of each HTTP header field should be DOMString.

1.2. DownloadState

An enumerator to indicate the state of a download operation. 
    enum DownloadState { "QUEUED", "DOWNLOADING", "PAUSED", "CANCELED", "COMPLETED", "FAILED" };

Since: 2.4

The following values are supported:

  • QUEUED - Indicates that the download operation is listed in a queue.
  • DOWNLOADING - Indicates that the download operation is in progress.
  • PAUSED - Indicates that the download operation is in a paused state by user request.
  • CANCELED - Indicates that the download operation is canceled by user request.
  • COMPLETED - Indicates that the download operation is in a completed state.
  • FAILED - Indicates that the download operation has failed due to some reasons.

1.3. DownloadNetworkType

An enumerator to indicate the network type. 
    enum DownloadNetworkType { "CELLULAR", "WIFI", "ALL" };

Since: 2.4

The following values are supported:

  • CELLULAR - Indicates that the download operation is allowed in the cellular network only.
  • WIFI - Indicates that the download operation is allowed in the Wi-Fi network only.
  • ALL - Indicates that the download operation is allowed in all network types.

2. Interfaces

2.1. DownloadManagerObject

This interface defines the default download manager that is instantiated by the Tizen object. The tizen.download object allows access to the functionality of the Download API. 
    [NoInterfaceObject] interface DownloadManagerObject {
        readonly attribute DownloadManager download;
    };
    Tizen implements DownloadManagerObject;

Since: 2.4

2.2. DownloadRequest

The DownloadRequest interface defines the download request object. 
    [Constructor(DOMString url, optional DOMString? destination, optional DOMString? fileName, optional DownloadNetworkType? networkType, optional DownloadHTTPHeaderFields? httpHeader)]
    interface DownloadRequest {
        attribute DOMString url;

        attribute DOMString? destination;

        attribute DOMString? fileName;

        attribute DownloadNetworkType? networkType;

        attribute DownloadHTTPHeaderFields? httpHeader;
    };

Since: 2.4

Constructors

DownloadRequest(DOMString url, optional DOMString? destination, optional DOMString? fileName, optional DownloadNetworkType? networkType, optional DownloadHTTPHeaderFields? httpHeader);

Attributes

  • DOMString url
    An attribute to store the URL of the object to download.

    Since: 2.4

  • DOMString destination [nullable]
    An attribute to store the folder path of the destination folder to which a requested file object will be downloaded.

    If the destination is not specified or is an empty string, the file will be downloaded to the default storage: "Downloads". For more information, see Filesystem API.

    The default value is an empty string.

    Since: 2.4

  • DOMString fileName [nullable]
    An attribute to store the file name for the specified URL.

    If the file name is not given or is an empty string, the original file name from the URL is used.

    The default value is an empty string.

    Since: 2.4

  • DownloadNetworkType networkType [nullable]
    An attribute to store the allowed network type.

    If the network type is not given, all network types are allowed.

    The default value is ALL.

    Since: 2.4

  • DownloadHTTPHeaderFields httpHeader [nullable]
    An attribute to store extra HTTP header fields.

    For more information about HTTP header fields, see RFC-2616

    The default value is an empty object.

    Since: 2.4

    Code example:

     var req = new tizen.DownloadRequest("http://download.tizen.org/tools/README.txt");
 req.httpHeader["Pragma"] = "no-cache";
 req.httpHeader["Cookie"] = "version=1; Skin=new";
 req.httpHeader["X-Agent"] = "Tizen Sample App";

2.3. DownloadManager

The DownloadManager interface handles requests for downloading. Each step of a download operation is informed through callbacks. 
   [NoInterfaceObject] interface DownloadManager {

       void pause(long downloadId) raises(WebAPIException);

       void resume(long downloadId) raises(WebAPIException);

       DownloadState getState(long downloadId) raises(WebAPIException);

       DownloadRequest getDownloadRequest(long downloadId) raises(WebAPIException);

   };

Since: 2.4

Methods

onprogress

void oncompleted(long downloadId, DOMString path);

Since: 2.4

Parameters:

  • downloadId: The ID of the corresponding download operation.
