Session API - wkh237/react-native-fetch-blob GitHub Wiki
0.5.0
A session is an object that helps you manage files. It simply maintains a list of file path and let you use dispose()to delete files in this session once and for all.
The session table is maintained in memory, which means you may lost the session records if the app is closed. If you need to persist session data, consider use AsyncStorage or react-native-storage to maintain your sessions.
Add a file path to this session.
Remove a session entry from this session without delete the file.
Returns an array contains file paths in this session.
Delete all files in the session.
When using fileCache or path options along with fetch API, response data will automatically stored into file system. The files will NOT removed unless you unlink it. There're several ways to remove the files
// remove file using RNFetchblobResponse.flush() object method
RNFetchblob.config({
fileCache : true
})
.fetch('GET', 'http://example.com/download/file')
.then((res) => {
// remove cached file from storage
res.flush()
})
// remove file by specifying a path
RNFetchBlob.fs.unlink('some-file-path').then(() => {
// ...
})You can also grouping requests by using session API, and use dispose to remove them all when needed.
RNFetchblob.config({
fileCache : true
})
.fetch('GET', 'http://example.com/download/file')
.then((res) => {
// set session of a response
res.session('foo')
})
RNFetchblob.config({
// you can also set session beforehand
session : 'foo'
fileCache : true
})
.fetch('GET', 'http://example.com/download/file')
.then((res) => {
// ...
})
// or put an existing file path to the session
RNFetchBlob.session('foo').add('some-file-path')
// remove a file path from the session (just remove the entry, the file won't be deleted)
RNFetchBlob.session('foo').remove('some-file-path')
// list paths of a session
RNFetchBlob.session('foo').list()
// delete all files in a session
RNFetchBlob.session('foo').dispose().then(() => { ... })
