For anyone that's having a similar problem, the best workaround I found that works for my use case is to set the directory in BOTH the registration call ( ie electronDl({directory: '...'})
) and the calls to download()
from electron-dl.
Hello @scottbot95
My Problem: I have a chat app where user enters any chat room all images from that room will be downloaded one by one and i want to avoid saveAs dialog everytime. So, After user selects path first time i store it in config and check next time as shown below, if i get path then it shouldn't ask path again. But it still asks prompt for path.
I even removed property saveAs(defaults to false), but again when there are 6-7 images, it downlods 3 images without prompt, and for next ones it asks prompts to save It. So how to handle this situation?
can you please show me some sample code?
This is how i'm using it as you suggested.
const electronDl = require('electron-dl');
const download = electronDl({ saveAs: false, directory: app.getPath('downloads') });
let savePath = config.get('savePath');
download(
mainWindow,
args.imgUrl,
{
filename: `${args.msgTime}.jpg`,
openFolderWhenDone: true,
directory: savePath || app.getPath('downloads'),
showBadge: false
}
).then((downloadObj) => {
if (!savePath) {
let savedPath = downloadObj.getSavePath();
let splitted = savedPath.split('/');
splitted.pop();
config.set('savePath', splitted.join('/'));
}
}).catch((err) => {
event.sender.send('imageDownloadFailed', { msgTime: args.msgTime })
});
But then it gives error that download is not a function.
from electron-dl.
