A zip file is written in 'download_data' and nothing happens upon
returning.
Please indicate what is missing in the following ajax call and / or
controller function to spawn the zip file download.
jQuery.ajax({method:'get',url:'{{=URL('download_data')}}',
data:fileIDs,
success: function(){}
});
__
def download_data():
vars = request.get_vars
fileIDs = vars.values()
import zipfile
import cStringIO
import contenttype as c
zf = zipfile.ZipFile('data download.zip', mode='w')
try:
for file_id in fileIDs:
file = db.files[file_id].file
fileLoc = db.files.file.retrieve_file_properties(file)['path']
+ '/' + file
displayName = db.files[file_id].file_name
zf.write(fileLoc, displayName)
finally:
zf.close()
s=cStringIO.StringIO()
zipfile = open('data download.zip','r')
s.write(zipfile.read())
response.headers['Content-Type'] = c.contenttype(filename)
response.headers['Content-Disposition'] = "attachment; filename=%s" %
filename
return s.getvalue()
