Download firebase storage file to computer












0
















Note: I want to download the file on the local storage.




Get firebase file



Firebase.storage().ref('file.jpg').getDownloadURL().then((url) => {
var a = document.createElement("a")
document.body.appendChild(a)
a.style = "display: none"
a.href = url
a.download = 'file'
a.click()
}).catch(function(msg) {
// catch error here
})


Tried this method to download with invisible anchor tag. On click the page is redirected to the firebase storage but the downloader is not invoked.




CORS is configured properly




Is there any chance to invoke the browser to download files from firebase storage on button click.



I tried the above code on React JS project but it seems to be broken.

  • Can you try this module instead? npmjs.com/package/js-file-download

  • Here is the repo: github.com/kennethjiang/js-file-download. The last commit is 24 days ago so it looks like some work is still being done.
