This download manager native extension lets users download big files as fast as possible by downloading the files in chunks. on top of that, the downloads need to be resume-able to make sure that download won’t fail on any condition. Using this android developers can focus on their app/game logic without worrying about how to handle data files.
Demo
In order to get a feeling of what this download manager library is all about, we have created a test apk Demo so you can install it on your Android device and test it for yourself.
Features / What you get
- super easy to use
- can be used separately in any extension
- decide on download sections/chunks yourself
- manage queue for downloads
- categorize downloads with prioritization
- start more than one download at a time
- get reports on your download status
Technical Specifications
This download manager android/java library which developers can use in their apps and allow you to download files in parallel mechanism in some chunks and notify developers about tasks status (any download file process is a task). Each download task cross 6 stats in its lifetime.
- init
- ready
- downloading
- paused
- download finished
- end
In the first stage, you need to include these permissions in your AndroidManifest.xml
file
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
After that, import com.golshadi.downloadManager
package in your packages folder.
So now everything is ready to start.
Let’s get started
One of the important benefits of this lib is that you don’t need to initialize object completely before getting any reports.
DownloadManagerPro dm = new DownloadManagerPro(Context);
to get report about tasks you can use these methods that will be introduced later on this doc:
public ReportStructure singleDownloadStatus(int token);
public List<ReportStructure> downloadTasksInSameState(int state);
public List<ReportStructure> lastCompletedDownloads();
public boolean unNotifiedChecked();
public boolean delete(int token, boolean deleteTaskFile);
Attention: in this documentation dm stands for DownloadManagerPro object
Initialize DownloadManagerPro
in order to download with this lib you need to set its basic configurations and give him a listener to poke you about tasks status.
-
void DownloadManagerPro.init(String saveFilePath, int maxChunk, DownloadManagerListener class)
- String
saveFielPath
: folder address that you want to save your completed download task in it. - int
maxChunk
: number of maximum chunks. any task is divided into some chunks and download them in parallel. it’s better not to define more than 16 chunks; but if you do it’s set to 16 automatically. - DownloadManagerListener listenerClass in this package an interface created to report developer download tasks status. this interface includes some abstract methods that will be introduced later.
Example:
public class MyActivity extends Activity implements DownloadManagerListener { ... public void methodName() { ... // you can only pass this for context but here i want to show clearly DownloadManagerPro dm = new DownloadManagerPro(this.getApplicationContext()); dm.init("downloadManager/", 12, this); ... } ... }
- String
there are three ways to define your download task, so you can define it any way you want. for example If you didn’t set maximum chunks number or sd card folder address it uses your initialized values. these methods return you a task id that you can call to start or pause that task using this token.
-
int DownloadManagerPro.addTask(String saveName, String url, int chunk, String sdCardFolderAddress, boolean overwrite, boolean priority)
-
int DownloadManagerPro.addTask(String saveName, String url, String sdCardFolderAddress, boolean overwrite, boolean priority)
-
int DownloadManagerPro.addTask(String saveName, String url, boolean overwrite, boolean priority)
- String
saveName
: defining te name of desired download file. - String
url
: Location of desired downlaod file. - int
chunk
: Number of chunks which download file has been divided into. - String
sdCardFolder
: Location of where user want to save the file. - boolean
overwrite
: Overwrite if exists another file with the same name. If true, overwrite and replace the file. If false, find new name and save it with new name. -
boolean
priority
: Grant priority to more desired files to be downloaded. -
return int
task id
: task token
Example:
int taskToekn = dm.addTask("save_name", "http://www.site.com/video/ss.mp4", false, false);
- String
this method usage is to start a download task. If download task doesn’t get started since this task is in downloading state, it throw you an IOException. When download task start to download this lib notify you with OnDownloadStarted interface
-
void DownloadManagerPro.startDownload(int token) throws IOException
- int
token
: It is an assigned token to each new download which is considered as download task id.
Example:
try { dm.startDownload(taskToekn); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
- int
pause a download tasks that you mention and when that task paused this lib notify you with OnDownloadPaused interface
- void DownloadManagerPro.pauseDownload(int token)
- int
token
: It is an assigned token to each new download which is considered as download task id.
- int
Example:
dm.pauseDownload(taskToekn);
StartQueueDownload method create a queue sort on what you want and start download queue tasks with downloadTaskPerTime number simultaneously. If download tasks are running in queue and you try to start it again it throws a QueueDownloadInProgressException exception.
-
void DownloadManagerPro.StartQueueDownload(int downloadTaskPerTime, int priority) throws QueueDownloadInProgressException
- int
downloadTaskPerTime
: the number of task that can be downloaded simultaneously -
int
priority
: Grant priority to more desired files to be downloaded.- QueueSort.HighPriority : only high priority
- QueueSort.LowPriority : only low priority
- QueueSort.HighToLowPriority : sort queue from high to low priority
- QueueSort.LowToHighPriority : sort queue from low to high priority
- QueueSort.earlierFirst : sort queue from earlier to oldest tasks
- QueueSort.oldestFirst : sort queue from old to earlier tasks
- int
Example:
try {
dm.startQueueDownload(3, QueueSort.oldestFirst);
} catch (QueueDownloadInProgressException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
this method pauses queue download and if no queue download was started it throws a QueueDownloadNotStartedException exception.
- void DownloadManagerPro.pauseQueueDownload()throws QueueDownloadNotStartedException
Example:
try {
dm.pauseQueueDownload();
} catch (QueueDownloadNotStartedException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
Reports
In this section we are working with reports since we need to get tasks status and some useful information about those status.
It reports task download information in “ReportStructure” style using a token (download task id) and finally returns the statue of that token.
-
ReportStruct DownloadManagerPro.SingleDownloadStatus(int token)
-
int
toekn
: task token -
return
ReportStructure
object and it has a method to convert these info to json- int
id
: task token - String
name
: file name that will be saved on your sdCard - int
state
: download state number - String
url
: file download link - long
fileSize
: downloaded bytes - boolean
resumable
: download link is resumable or not - String
type
: file MIME - int
chunks
: task chunks number - double
percent
: downloaded file percent - long
downloadLength
: size that will get from your sd card after it completely download - String
saveAddress
: save file address - boolean
priority
: true if task was high priority
- int
-
Example:
ReportStructure report = dm.singleDownloadStatus(taskToken);
It’s a report method for returning the list of download task in same state that developers want.
- List<ReportStruct> DownloadManagerPro.downloadTasksInSameState(int state)
- int
state
: any download in it’s life time across 6 state.- TaskState.INIT: task intruduce for library and gave you token back but it didn’t started yet.
- TaskState.READY: download task data fetch from its URL and it’s ready to start.
- TaskState.DOWNLOADING: download task in downloading process.
- TaskState.PAUSED: download task in puase state. If in middle of downloading process internet disconnected; task goes to puase state and you can start it later
- TaskState.DOWNLOAD_FINISHED: download task downloaded completely but their chunks did not rebuild.
- TaskState.END: after rebuild download task chunks, task goes to this state and notified developer with
OnDownloadCompleted(long taskToken)
interface
- int
Example:
List<ReportStructure> report = dm.downloadTasksInSameState(TaskState.INIT);
This method returns list of last completed Download tasks in “ReportStructure” style, developers can use it for notifying whether the task is completed or not.
- List<ReportStructure> DownloadManagerPro.lastCompletedTasks()
- return
List<ReportStructure>
: list of completed download from last calledunNotifiedCheck()
method till now.
- return
Example:
List<ReportStructure> completedDownloadTasks = dm.lastCompletedTasks();
This method checks all un notified tasks, so in another “lastCompletedDownloads” call ,completed task does not show up again. “lastCompletedDownloadsâ€: Shows the list of latest completed downloads. Calling this method, all of the tasks that were shown in the previous report, will be eliminated from “lastCompletedDownloads”
- void DownloadManagerPro.unNotifiedCheck()
Example:
dm.unNotifiedCheck()
this method delete download task
-
boolean DownloadManagerPro.delete(int token, boolean deleteTaskFile)
- int
token
: download task token -
boolean
deleteTaskFile
: deletes download task from database and set deleteTaskFile as true, then it goes to saved folder and delete that file. -
return boolean : if delete is successfully it returns true otherwise false
- int
Example:
dm.delete(12, false);
This method closes database connection.
- void DownloadManagerPro.disConnectDB()
Example:
dm.disConnectDb();
