Before somebody says, "duplicate", I just want to make sure, that folks know, that I have already reviewed these questions:
1) Uses angular and php, not sure what is happening here (I don't know PHP): Download zip file and trigger "save file" dialog from angular method
2) Can't get this answer to do anything: how to download a zip file using angular
3) This person can already download, which is past the point I'm trying to figure out:
Download external zip file from angular triggered on a button action
4) No answer for this one:
download .zip file from server in nodejs
5) I don't know what language this even is:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35596764/zip-file-download-using-angularjs-directive
Given those questions, if this is still a duplicate, I apologize. Here is, yet, another version of this question.
My angular 1.5.X client gives me a list of titles, of which each have an associated file. My Node 4.X/Express 4.X server takes that list, gets the file locations, creates a zip file, using express-zip from npm, and then streams that file back in the response. I then want my client to initiate the browser's "download a file" option.
Here's my client code (Angular 1.5.X):
function bulkdownload(titles){
titles = titles || [];
if ( titles.length > 0 ) {
$http.get('/query/bulkdownload',{
params:{titles:titles},
responseType:'arraybuffer'
})
.then(successCb,errorCb)
.catch(exceptionCb);
}
function successCb(response){
// This is the part I believe I cannot get to work, my code snippet is below
};
function errorCb(error){
alert('Error: ' + JSON.stringify(error));
};
function exceptionCb(ex){
alert('Exception: ' + JSON.stringify(ex));
};
};
Node (4.X) code with express-zip, https://www.npmjs.com/package/express-zip:
router.get('/bulkdownload',function(req,resp){
var titles = req.query.titles || [];
if ( titles.length > 0 ){
utils.getFileLocations(titles).
then(function(files){
let filename = 'zipfile.zip';
// .zip sets Content-Type and Content-disposition
resp.zip(files,filename,console.log);
},
_errorCb)
}
});
Here's my successCb in my client code (Angular 1.5.X):
function successCb(response){
var URL = $window.URL || $window.webkitURL || $window.mozURL || $window.msURL;
if ( URL ) {
var blob = new Blob([response.data],{type:'application/zip'});
var url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
$window.open(url);
}
};
The "blob" part seems to work fine. Checking it in IE's debugger, it does look like a file stream of octet information. Now, I believe I need to get that blob into the some HTML5 directive, to initiate the "Save File As" from the browser. Maybe? Maybe not?
Since 90%+ of our users are using IE11, I test all of my angular in PhantomJS (Karma) and IE. When I run the code, I get the old "Access is denied" error in an alert window:
Exception: {"description":"Access is denied...<stack trace>}
Suggestions, clarifications, answers, etc. are welcome!
Use this one:
var url="YOUR ZIP URL HERE";
window.open(url, '_blank');
var zip_file_path = "" //put inside "" your path with file.zip
var zip_file_name = "" //put inside "" file name or something
var a = document.createElement("a");
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.style = "display: none";
a.href = zip_file_path;
a.download = zip_file_name;
a.click();
document.body.removeChild(a);
As indicated in this answer, I have used the below Javascript function and now I am able to download the byte[] array content successfully.
Function to convert byte array stream (type of string) to blob object:
var b64toBlob = function(b64Data, contentType, sliceSize) {
contentType = contentType || '';
sliceSize = sliceSize || 512;
var byteCharacters = atob(b64Data);
var byteArrays = [];
for (var offset = 0; offset < byteCharacters.length; offset += sliceSize) {
var slice = byteCharacters.slice(offset, offset + sliceSize);
var byteNumbers = new Array(slice.length);
for (var i = 0; i < slice.length; i++) {
byteNumbers[i] = slice.charCodeAt(i);
}
var byteArray = new Uint8Array(byteNumbers);
byteArrays.push(byteArray);
}
var blob = new Blob(byteArrays, {type: contentType});
return blob;
};
An this is how I call this function and save the blob object with FileSaver.js (getting data via Angular.js $http.get):
$http.get("your/api/uri").success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
//Here, data is type of string
var blob = b64toBlob(data, 'application/zip');
var fileName = "download.zip";
saveAs(blob, fileName);
});
Note: I am sending the byte[] array (Java-Server-Side) like this:
byte[] myByteArray = /*generate your zip file and convert into byte array*/ new byte[]();
return new ResponseEntity<byte[]>(myByteArray , headers, HttpStatus.OK);
I updated my bulkdownload method to use $window.open(...) instead of $http.get(...):
function bulkdownload(titles){
titles = titles || [];
if ( titles.length > 0 ) {
var url = '/query/bulkdownload?';
var len = titles.length;
for ( var ii = 0; ii < len; ii++ ) {
url = url + 'titles=' + titles[ii];
if ( ii < len-1 ) {
url = url + '&';
}
}
$window.open(url);
}
};
I have only tested this in IE11.

So here in C# code i am sending corgi to client which has corgiBabies. Using ClosedXml here.
var wbCorgiBabiesTemplate = new XLWorkbook();
var wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate = wbCorgiBabiesTemplate.Worksheets.Add(" Work Sheet Corgi baby Template");
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("A1").Value = "Corgi Parent";
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("B1").Value = "Corgi Child";
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("A2").Value = "Petunia";
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("B2").Value = "Khaleesi";
using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
{
wbCorgiBabiesTemplate.SaveAs(ms);
byte[] Corgibabies = ms.ToArray();
}
corgi.Corgibabies = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(Corgibabies);
return corgi;
After that in Client i want to open corgibabies in excel sheet but the conversion here is wrong somewhere i think that excel sheet doesn't open correctly.
var fileName = 'CorgiBabies.xlsx';
dataAccessService.get('corgi')
.then(function(response) {
let utf8Encode = new TextEncoder();
var strBytes = utf8Encode.encode(response.corgiBabies);
var a = document.createElement("a");
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.style = "display: none";
var file = new Blob([strBytes], {type: 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet'});
var fileURL = window.URL.createObjectURL(file);
a.href = fileURL;
a.download = fileName;
a.click();
})
Below what excel sheet gives me error in image
Assuming you're on .Net Core+ (otherwise you can find the System.Buffers Nuget package for .Net standard or framework), on server side try
using System.Buffers;
using System.Buffers.Text;
and insert
var outputBuffer = new Span<byte>();
var status = Base64.EncodeToUtf8(Corgibabies, outputBuffer, out var consumed, out var written);
// sanity check
// if (status != OperationStatus.Done) throw new Exception();`
// do the above just before replacing
// System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(Corgibabies);
// with
System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(outputBuffer);
Now I'm pretty certain that will ensure that the server responds with what the client should expect but I'm not set up to test the Javascript side of things (yet). In the meantime let me know if this helps you make progress.
PS1: the error in your original code was the implicit assumption that Corgibabies is an array containing the bytes of a UTF8 encoded string. It actually contains the raw bytes of what would normally be an .xlsx file on disk. What is needed is to make that into text (Base64 encoding) and ensure that text is UTF8. Obviously in the Javascript you need to do the reverse - UTF8 Base64 to binary, save to disk, open in Excel...
Instead of returning string as the Content, you can make it work with File.
public ActionResult Get()
{
var wbCorgiBabiesTemplate = new XLWorkbook();
var wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate = wbCorgiBabiesTemplate.Worksheets.Add(" Work Sheet Corgi baby Template");
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("A1").Value = "Corgi Parent";
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("B1").Value = "Corgi Child";
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("A2").Value = "Petunia";
wsCoriBabiesAmendementTemplate.Cell("B2").Value = "Khaleesi";
wbCorgiBabiesTemplate.SaveAs("new.xlsx");
var ms = new MemoryStream();
wbCorgiBabiesTemplate.SaveAs(ms);
ms.Position = 0;
var fileName = "CorgiBabies.xlsx";
return File(ms, "application/octet-stream", fileName);
}
Api call:
or
fetch('https://localhost:7135/api/downloadExcel')
.then(resp => resp.blob())
.then(blob => {
const url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.style.display = 'none';
a.href = url;
// the filename you want
a.download = 'CorgiBabies.xlsx';
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.click();
window.URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
})
.catch(() => alert('oh no!'));
Ref: git
ClosedXML has several extensions that will help you acheive what you need :
ClosedXML.Extensions.AspNet
ClosedXML.Extensions.Mvc
ClosedXML.Extensions.WebApi
You can install the appropriate extension for your project, to help give you a fast access to download the workbook. You can also save the file on disk, and pass the file link (path) to JavaScript, and continue your work on the file from JavaScript.
if you need to know how you would let the user download the file from ASP.NET,
then you can do this :
Simple workbook :
C#: ASP.NET MVC
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Download(string fileName)
{
// create workbook
var workbook = new XLWorkbook();
var sheet = workbook.Worksheets.Add("Worksheet 1");
sheet.Cell("A1").Value = "A1";
sheet.Cell("B1").Value = "B1";
sheet.Cell("A2").Value = "A2";
sheet.Cell("B2").Value = "B2";
// get workbook bytes
byte[] workbookBytes;
using (var memoryStream = new MemoryStream())
{
workbook.SaveAs(memoryStream);
workbookBytes = memoryStream.ToArray();
}
return File(workbookBytes, "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet", fileName);
}
C#: ASP.NET Web Forms
public void Export(HttpResponse response, string fileName)
{
// create workbook
var workbook = new XLWorkbook();
var sheet = workbook.Worksheets.Add("Worksheet 1");
sheet.Cell("A1").Value = "A1";
sheet.Cell("B1").Value = "B1";
sheet.Cell("A2").Value = "A2";
sheet.Cell("B2").Value = "B2";
HttpResponse httpResponse = response;
httpResponse.Clear();
httpResponse.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet";
httpResponse.AddHeader("content-disposition", $"attachment;filename=\"{fileName}.xlsx\"");
using (var memoryStream = new MemoryStream())
{
workbook.SaveAs(memoryStream);
memoryStream.WriteTo(httpResponse.OutputStream);
}
httpResponse.End();
}
the above examples will directly download the file into the client device. However, if you want to pass the workbook bytes to the JavaScript, you will need to convert it to base64 string and pass it to the JavaScript like so :
var base64String = Convert.ToBase64String(workbookBytes);
Then from JavaScript decode it to Uint8Array :
/*
JavaScript
*/
// get base64 string array and decoded it
var data = atob(serverSideResult);
var array = new Array(data.length);
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
array[i] = data.charCodeAt(i);
}
// final result
var dataUint8Array = new Uint8Array(array);
now you can work with dataUint8Array as normal Uint8Array.
if you want to pass it back to the server-side, you can convert the array to base64 string, and pass it to the server-side like so :
/*
JavaScript
*/
let binaryString = ''
for (var i = 0; i < dataUint8Array.byteLength; i++) {
binaryString += String.fromCharCode(dataUint8Array[i]);
}
//pass base64Result to the server-side (C#)
var base64Result = window.btoa(binaryString);
then from C# you just need to convert it back to array from base64 string like so :
var bytes = Convert.FromBase64String(dataReceivedFromJavaScript);
where bytes would be byte[].
Hi I'm trying to move the bytes of my video which is in c# to javascript to make the bytes into URL.createObjectURL on Blazor server-side
I moved the bytes using Js Invoke
.cs
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(item.PathFile))
{
//Byte Video
byte[] result = GetFile(item.PathFile);
if (result != null)
{
var url = await Js.InvokeAsync<string>("videoUrl", result);
data.ImageString = url;
}
}
.js
function videoUrl(value) {
var byteCharacters = atob(value);
var byteNumbers = new Array(byteCharacters.length);
for (var i = 0; i < byteCharacters.length; i++) {
byteNumbers[i] = byteCharacters.charCodeAt(i);
}
var byteArray = new Uint8Array(byteNumbers);
//Byte Array -> Blob
var file = new Blob([byteArray], { type: 'data:video/mp4;base64' });
//Blob -> Object URL
var fileURL = URL.createObjectURL(file);
return fileURL;
}
My problem is, I tried this script for a video with a size of 3 Mb it runs fine, but when I try for a 133Mb video I get an error:
Error: System.ArgumentException: The JSON value of length 139569235 is too large and not supported.
I've tried to fix it, but it still fails, it makes me a little frustrated
So is there a solution for my error ? or what should I do?
I thank you for any suggestions or feedback
So, reading on the AspNetDocs github, there is a startup option that can change the max message size, but I think it only applies to calls from JS to .Net (https://github.com/dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs/issues/21208). Worth a check though.
services.AddServerSideBlazor()
.AddHubOptions(options => options.MaximumReceiveMessageSize = 32000);
Personally though, I would do as Mister Magoo said in the comment and either use an API or chunk the data and reassemble at the other end.
I have a blob created with a base64, and I need to make this data downloadable as a pdf.
I created this snippet:
var blob = new Blob([byte]);
var link = document.createElement('a');
link.href = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
link.target = '_blank';
var fileName = name + '.pdf';
link.download = fileName;
link.click();
It works on all the browsers, except safari mobile on iOS.
The file gets actually downloaded, but its name is "unknown", then it can't be open since the extension gets lost.
The problem is that the download attribute lacks support on this browser and IE.
There are a lot of workarounds for IE, but I didn't find any for Safari/iOS.
Do you know how can I download a blob got from a base64 (no XHR involved) in this browser?
Thank you
I need to make this data downloadable as a pdf (...) in safari iOS
SHORT ANSWER: you can't. Due this bug is impossible to download the file on safari iOS
The alternative is to open the file on the browser with the proper mime type, so it can show its content (and the user can then manually download it if needed).
Make sure to pass mime type when creating the Blob. reference
var blob = new Blob([byte], {type: 'application/pdf'});
Lastly, I'd strongly suggest you to use FileSaver.js which that can handle most of the corner cases/multiple browser support for save (or in this case, open) a file in javascript.
As per the below link:-
https://caniuse.com/#feat=download
Safari 13 Beta 3 is released so you can check on the same, whether its working or not?
You can download a blob got from a base64 by using a atob function.
The atob function will decode a base64-encoded string into a new string with a character for each byte of the binary data.
You can save blob locally via FileSaver.js .

The "target" attribute in Safari seems to override the "download" attribute. Currently, as to my knowledge, there is no way to solve this. So I think you have to wait for the next Safari version (13) which will be out in a few months.
I have an AJAX call which calls a secure PHP API call that generates PDF file data (on the fly, no actual file) and returns it. How can I use this PDF file data in javascript/jquery to create and download a PDF file to the user?
I've originally tried setting the ajax call's heads to that of a PDF, but obviously you can't download files via ajax.
To automatically download a file from ajax call you can do the following. In my example I returned an object that contained the file name, mime type, and Base64 data but maybe this can give you an idea on how to do what you are looking for.
PostDTO('/ReportService.asmx/DownloadReport', dto, function (result) {
var a = document.createElement('a');
if (window.URL && window.Blob && ('download' in a) && window.atob) {
// Do it the HTML5 compliant way
var blob = base64ToBlob(result.FileDataBase64, result.MimeType);
var url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
a.href = url;
a.download = result.Filename;
a.click();
window.URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
}
});
function base64ToBlob(base64, mimetype, slicesize) {
if (!window.atob || !window.Uint8Array) {
// The current browser doesn't have the atob function. Cannot continue
return null;
}
mimetype = mimetype || '';
slicesize = slicesize || 512;
var bytechars = atob(base64);
var bytearrays = [];
for (var offset = 0; offset < bytechars.length; offset += slicesize) {
var slice = bytechars.slice(offset, offset + slicesize);
var bytenums = new Array(slice.length);
for (var i = 0; i < slice.length; i++) {
bytenums[i] = slice.charCodeAt(i);
}
var bytearray = new Uint8Array(bytenums);
bytearrays[bytearrays.length] = bytearray;
}
return new Blob(bytearrays, { type: mimetype });
};
You can download file from ajax.
I did it from an angular application.
The idea :
Get the file data and ask a response type "arrayBuffer"
Be sure the data response are not transformed by your framework (as it is with angular)
Create a blob : var blob = new Blob([data], {type: 'application/pdf');//check type
Create an url : var url = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
Open the url : window.open(url);
You can verify the blob generated via the console, the blob url is showed. That url must open your pdf.
Is there a simple way to get an image from a url to put in a PDFKit pdf?
I have a PDF being automatically generated in-browser. There's an image I want included, to which I have a URL. The catch is that I'm generating the PDF in-browser. Since I have the URL available from the internet, it seems like there should be an easy way to turn that image into something readable by PDFKit.
Is there a way for Javascript to turn an image URL into a buffer readable by PDFKit?
What I want is what you'd like the following command to do:
doc.image('http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0c/Cow_female_black_white.jpg')
Thanks in advance. The solutions I found online have your server take in the link, and respond with a buffer. Is this the only way? Or is there a way all in-browser with no http posting?
This is a pretty old question but I'll add my notes since it's the first suggestion when looking for "pdfkit browser image" on Google.
I based my solution on the data uri option supported by PDFKit:
Just pass an image path, buffer, or data uri with base64 encoded data
to the image method along with some optional arguments.
So after a quick look around I found the general approach to get a data uri from an image URL was using canvas, like in this post. Putting it together in PDFKit's interactive browser demo:
function getDataUri(url, callback) {
var image = new Image();
image.crossOrigin = 'anonymous'
image.onload = function () {
var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
canvas.width = this.naturalWidth; // or 'width' if you want a special/scaled size
canvas.height = this.naturalHeight; // or 'height' if you want a special/scaled size
canvas.getContext('2d').drawImage(this, 0, 0);
// // Get raw image data
// callback(canvas.toDataURL('image/png').replace(/^data:image\/(png|jpg);base64,/, ''));
// ... or get as Data URI
callback(canvas.toDataURL('image/png'));
};
image.src = url;
}
// Usage
getDataUri('http://pdfkit.org/docs/img/14.png', function(dataUri) {
// create a document and pipe to a blob
var doc = new PDFDocument();
var stream = doc.pipe(blobStream());
doc.image(dataUri, 150, 200, {
width: 300
});
// end and display the document in the iframe to the right
doc.end();
stream.on('finish', function() {
iframe.src = stream.toBlobURL('application/pdf');
});
});
I retrieve the image via AJAX as a base64-encoded string, then use the following code to convert the base64-encoded string into a usable buffer:
var data = atob(base64);
var buffer = [];
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; ++i)
buffer.push(data.charCodeAt(i));
buffer._isBuffer = true;
buffer.readUInt16BE = function(offset, noAssert) {
var len = this.length;
if (offset >= len) return;
var val = this[offset] << 8;
if (offset + 1 < len)
val |= this[offset + 1];
return val;
};
pdf.image(buffer);
See also https://github.com/devongovett/pdfkit/issues/354#issuecomment-68666894, where the same issue is discussed as applied to fonts.
I'll weigh my 2 cents on the issue as I just spent a good deal of time getting it to work. It's a medley of answers I've found googling the issue.
var doc = new PDFDocument();
var stream = doc.pipe(blobStream());
var files = {
img1: {

}
};
Use the above object at a place to store all of the images and other files needed in the pdf.

files[file].data = dataURI;
}
}

saveData(blob, 'aa.pdf');
});
The biggest issue I came across was getting the info from the arraybuffer type to a string with base64 data. I hope this helps!
Here is the js fiddle where most of the xhr code came from.
I did it using NPM package axios to get a base64 encoded buffer:
on the project folder:
npm i axios
code:
var axios = require('axios');
let image = await axios.get("url", {responseType: 'arraybuffer'});
doc.image(image.data, 12, h, {
width: 570,
align: 'center',
valign: 'center'
});
