Install

You may install this package using composer.

$ composer require bhittani/download --prefer-dist

Usage

This package currently allows downloading/extraction of files (local/network), zip files (local/network) and GitHub repositories.

Downloading a file

The file downloader allows downloading of a single file either from a local disk or over a network.

<?php
use Bhittani\Download\File;

// Create an instance of Bhittani\Download\File with the path to the source file.
$file = new File('path/to/a/local/or/www/file.ext');

// Download the file to a local destination.
$file->download('path/to/local/destination/file.ext');

Downloading/extracting a zip archive

The zip downloader allows downloading of a zip file either from a local disk or over a network and extracting its contents into a local folder.

<?php
use Bhittani\Download\Zip;

// Create an instance of Bhittani\Download\Zip with path to the source zip archive.
$zip = new Zip('path/to/a/local/or/www/archive.zip');

// Download and extract the zip archive to a local destination.
$zip->download('path/to/local/destination/folder');

Downloading a GitHub repository

The GitHub downloader allows downloading of a GitHub repository into a local folder.

<?php
use Bhittani\Download\GitHub;

// Create an instance of Bhittani\Download\GitHub with the name of respository.
$gitHub = new GitHub('org/repo');

// Download the GitHub repository to a local destination.
$gitHub->download('path/to/local/destination/folder');

Using a progress callback handler

The download instances also accept a progress callback.

$downloader = new \Bhittani\Download\GitHub('org/repo');

$downloader->callback(function ($transferred, $total, $time) {
    // $transferred will contain the number of bytes transferred.
    // $total will contain the total bytes.
    // $time will contain the time consumed in milliseconds.
});

$downloader->download('path/to/destionation/folder');

An stdout progress callback is available as an invocable class Bhittani\Download\Progress\Standard which may be useful for console output.
