pizza-guy

If you already have a big list of urls of files that you want to download but you don't know how, this is your module.

The idea is to support really big lists of files that would be insane to download simultaneusly since Node would break for this kind of cases. Hope others to support this cause. ✌🏻

How to use

Require / Import

import pizzaGuy from 'pizza-guy';
// OR
var pizzaGuy = require('pizza-guy');

Prepare your data

const images = [
  'http://some.domain.com/file0.jpg',
  'https://some.domain.com/file1.gif',
  'https://some.domain.com/file2.png'
];

Execute

pizzaGuy
  // Pass an array of strings containing urls...
  .deliver(images)
  // Absolute or relative path to save these files...
  .onAddress('./some-path')
  // Will trigger per file...
  .onSuccess((info) => {
    console.log(`${info.fileName} succeed!`);
  })
  // Will trigger per file that failed..
  .onError((info) => {
    console.log(`${info.fileName} failed`);
  })
  // Initialize the utility!
  .start();
