My app is created with mean and I am a user of docker too. The purpose of my app is to create and download a CSV file. I already created my file, compressed it and placed it in a temp folder (the file will be removed after the download). This part is in the nodejs server side and works without problems.
I already use several things like (res.download) which is supposed to download directly the file in the browser but nothing append. I tried to use blob in the angularjs part but it doesn't work.
The getData function creates and compresses the file (it exists I can reach it directly when I look where the app is saved).
exports.getData = function getData(req, res, next){
var listRequest = req.body.params.listURL;
var stringTags = req.body.params.tagString;
//The name of the compressed CSV file
var nameFile = req.body.params.fileName;
var query = url.parse(req.url, true).query;
//The function which create the file
ApollineData.getData(listRequest, stringTags, nameFile)
.then(function (response){
var filePath = '/opt/mean.js/modules/apolline/client/CSVDownload/'+response;
const file = fs.createReadStream(filePath);
res.download(filePath, response);
})
.catch(function (response){
console.log(response);
});
};
My main problem is to download this file directly in the browser without using any variable because it could be huge (like several GB). I want to download it and then delete it.
There is nothing wrong with res.download
Probably the reason why res.download
don't work for you is b/c you are using AJAX to fetch the resource, Do a regular navigation. Or if it requires some post data and another method: create a form and submit.
