I don't know if this is the correct way but you can do it by making an action
public function downloadAction()
{
/* get here all the data you need from the database
* $size = size of the file you can get by readfile()
* $filename = 12f3f1aa1b11ec11dd1dd1.zip (with the path)
* $filename1 = example.zip
*/
if(file_exists($filename)) {
ob_start();
$size = readfile($filename);
$this->view->data = ob_get_clean();
}
header('Expires: Mon, 20 May 1974 23:58:00 GMT');
header('Last-Modified: ' . gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s') . ' GMT');
header('Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate');
header('Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0', false);
header('Cache-Control: private');
header('Pragma: no-cache');
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-type: binary/octet-stream");
header("Content-length: {$size}");
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=\"{$filename1}\"");
$this->_helper->layout()->disableLayout();
$this->render('download');
}
make a view file (download.phtml) with this:
<?php echo $this->data; ?>
