Download the ZIP file in response to the api call

Question

I have a binary zip file as response from an api call. I want to download the zip file directly using Javascript/React. How can I achieve this goal?

Answer 1

Read this FileReader and try this function: < /p>

function readFile(binaryFile) {

  let reader = new FileReader();

  reader.readAsArrayBuffer(binaryFile);

// in success case, do something with result
  reader.onload = function() {
    console.log(reader.result);
  };

// in error case, do something with result
  reader.onerror = function() {
    console.log(reader.error);
  };

}

with best regards!
