[Gambas-user] File Downloading

[Shannon Kuchler]

Total noobie here



I have searched and searched and can't seem to figure this out

I simply need to download a file



The problem is this code works when it feels like it. When it works it works great. When it doesn't work it just creates the temp.zip and does nothing.

It doesn't raise an error so I don't know what's going on.

  

On top of that I can't get it to download if the url is redirected 

for example I want to download this file  https://github.com/SphereII/SMXBigBackPack/archive/master.zip 

but the url is redirected to https://codeload.github.com/ClockworkOrange420/7-Days-to-die-Unofficial-XML-Fixes/zip/master 



Ideally I want to download master.zip from https://github.com/SphereII/SMXBigBackPack/archive/master.zip and save it to /tmp/mi4l/master.zip 









Public hGetFileClient As New HttpClient As "hGetFileClient" Private sDownloadBuffer As String

Public Sub DownloadFile()



hGetFileClient.URL = URL
hGetFileClient.TimeOut = 0
hGetFileClient.Async = True
hGetFileClient.Get([], "/tmp/mi4l/" & "temp.zip")



end



Public Sub hGetFileClient_Error()

  hGetFileClient.Stop()
  Message("Error: Downloading")
End





Public Sub hGetFileClient_Finished()



Shell "unzip -o /tmp/mi4l/*.zip" & " -d " & "/tmp/mi4l/" Wait



end
