I am building a android applikation using Phonagap and jquery mobile.
In the app I need to download some mp3-files, but it won't work
Here is my function:
function downloadFile() {
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI("http://media.domain.com/myfile.mp3");
var filepath = remoteFile.substring(remoteFile.lastIndexOf('/')+1);
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
filePath,
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
},
function(error) {
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
console.log("upload error code" + error.code);
}
);
}
What am I doing wrong..?
remoteFile does not appear to be set.

Hello I should save images on the device when the user clicks the download button.
I'm using the cordova file transfer plugin, but I can not save images in the device gallery.
$("#downloadFile").click(function()
{
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI("www.mysite.com/image.jpg");
var fileURL = cordova.file.????;
fileTransfer.download(
uri, fileURL, function(entry)
{
alert("download complete: " + entry.toURL());
},
function(error)
{
alert("download error source " + error.source);
alert("download error target " + error.target);
alert("download error code" + error.code);
},
false,
{
headers:
{
"Authorization": "Basic dGVzdHVzZXJuYW1lOnRlc3RwYXNzd29yZA=="
}
});
});
Are there any other ways to save an image using cordova?
Thanks, ciao
https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-plugin-save-image
You should use this plugin
function(entry){
window.cordova.plugins.imagesaver.saveImageToGallery(uri, function(success){}, function(error){});
}
nativePathToJpegImage is uri.
I have a problem with downloading a pdf from an external url and save it on the android device. So far I get these errors:
download error source http://bbg.co.tz/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/CC008962_Tanzania-tax-briefing-transfer-pricing_18-11-15.pdf
index.js:227 download error target /Phone/Download
index.js:228 upload error code1
And here is my code:
function bbgDownload(bbgURL)
{
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI(bbgURL);
fileURL='/Phone/Download'
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
fileURL,
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.toURL());
},
function(error) {
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
console.log("upload error code" + error.code);
},
false,
{
headers: {
"Authorization": "Basic dGVzdHVzZXJuYW1lOnRlc3RwYXNzd29yZA=="
}
}
);
console.log("Please show this URL " + bbgURL);
}
Append a filename to your fileURL variable. This worked for me, for example:
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI("http://bbg.co.tz/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/CC008962_Tanzania-tax-briefing-transfer-pricing_18-11-15.pdf");
var fileURL = "cdvfile://localhost/persistent/mydir/myPdfFile.pdf";
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
fileURL,
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.toURL());
},
function(error) {
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
console.log("upload error code" + error.code);
},
false,
{
headers: {
"Authorization": "Basic dGVzdHVzZXJuYW1lOnRlc3RwYXNzd29yZA=="
}
}
);
I can download files with phonegap api. (I use cordova 2.9.1)
But only if I know the url, for example: http://domain.com/url/to/img/moo.png.
But in my server I want to read the binary data of the file and send the binary string to
the phonegap app.
Is this possible to achieve this???
Here is the code:
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
// var uri = encodeURI("http://zielekols.com/Bilder/logo.png");
var uri = encodeURI('url/to/get');
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
'/storage/emulated/0/moo.pdf',
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
},
function(error) {
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
console.log("upload error code" + error.code);
},
false
);
Despite the many examples found on the documentation or in this forum, I can't find a way to download a file using Cordova...
First, I get the rootFS:
function gotFS(fileSystem) {
console.log("got filesystem");
// save the file system for later access
console.log(fileSystem.root.fullPath);
// displays "/" on desktop
// displays "file:///mnt/sdcard" on android with SD Card
window.rootFS = fileSystem.root;
}
document.addEventListener('deviceready', function() {
window.requestFileSystem = window.requestFileSystem || window.webkitRequestFileSystem;
window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0, gotFS, function(){
console.log("error getting LocalFileSystem");
});
}, false);
The upload script:
// Creating the image directory
imageDir = rootFS.getDirectory("imagesContent", {create: true},
function(){
// Success
},
function(error){
console.log("ERROR getDirectory");
console.log(error);
}
);
// Creating and Downloading the image
imgFile = imageDir.getFile(filename, {create: true, exclusive: true},
function (){
var localPath = rootFS.fullPath+'/imagesContent/'+filename;
fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
fileTransfer.download('http://example.com/images/'+filename,
localPath,
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
},
function (error) {
console.log(error);
console.log('download error: ' + error.code);
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
}
);
},
function (error){
console.log("ERROR getFile");
console.log(error);
}
);
I get this error in the console:Uncaught TypeError:
Cannot call method 'getFile' of undefined
The uri is authorized in config.xml.
I think that the problem is with this line: imageDir = rootFS.getDirectory("imagesContent", {create: true},function(), function()) I don't think the call to getDirectory is supposed to actually return the directory name, like what you expect, which is why your imageDir object is undefined.
It might be easier for you to use the FileTransfer.download() method to download stuff from your server: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/edge/cordova_file_file.md.html#FileTransfer
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI("http://some.server.com/download.php");
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
filePath,
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
},
function(error) {
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
console.log("upload error code" + error.code);
},
false,
{
headers: {
"Authorization": "Basic dGVzdHVzZXJuYW1lOnRlc3RwYXNzd29yZA=="
}
}
);
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI("http://some.server.com/download.php");
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
filePath,
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
},
function(error) {
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
console.log("upload error code" + error.code);
},
false,
{
headers: {
"Authorization": "Basic dGVzdHVzZXJuYW1lOnRlc3RwYXNzd29yZA=="
}
}
);
I use it but success and download is completed but not found image in y app
I want to download pdf file in my android phone using phone gap.can any one help me to download it? i have used https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/Android/Downloader plugin but it is not working.If anybody have any other downloading method then please let me know..
Thanks in advance..
You can use the phonegap file api to download the files you want from server. Check docs for more detail - FileTransfer API
Here is an example code to download and save a pdf file in your sdcard.
window.appRootDirName = "download_test";
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
console.log("device is ready");
window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0, gotFS, fail);
}
function fail() {
console.log("failed to get filesystem");
}
function gotFS(fileSystem) {
console.log("filesystem got");
window.fileSystem = fileSystem;
fileSystem.root.getDirectory(window.appRootDirName, {
create : true,
exclusive : false
}, dirReady, fail);
}
function dirReady(entry) {
window.appRootDir = entry;
console.log("application dir is ready");
}
downloadFile = function(){
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var url = "http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf";
var filePath = window.appRootDir.fullPath + "/test.pdf";
fileTransfer.download(
url,
filePath,
function(entry) {
alert("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
},
function(error) {
alert("download error" + error.source);
}
);
}

** You must add plugin file API, file transfer in phonegap (3.0+)
function downloadPDF(url, fileName, folder) {
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
var uri = encodeURI(url);
var fileURL = folder + fileName;
fileTransfer.download(
uri,
fileURL,
function(entry) {
alert("complete");
console.log("download complete: " + entry.toURL());
},
function(error) {
alert("upload error code" + error.code);
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
