Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.1 or higher. Installation ------------ [](#installation) The package could be installed with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org): ``` composer require yiisoft/response-download ``` General usage ------------- [](#general-usage) Use the factory to form a response: ``` use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface; use Yiisoft\ResponseDownload\DownloadResponseFactory; final class MyController { public function __construct( private readonly DownloadResponseFactory $downloadResponseFactory, ) { } public function sendMyContentAsFile(): ResponseInterface { return $this->downloadResponseFactory->sendContentAsFile('Hello!', 'message.txt'); } public function sendMyFile(): ResponseInterface { return $this->downloadResponseFactory->sendFile('message.txt'); } public function xSendMyFile(): ResponseInterface { return $this->downloadResponseFactory->xSendFile('message.txt'); } public function sendMyStreamAsFile(): ResponseInterface { $stream = new MyStream(); return $this->downloadResponseFactory->sendStreamAsFile($stream, 'message.txt'); } } ``` Note the `xSendFile()`. It is a special method that delegates the hard work to the web server instead of serving the file using PHP. Optional arguments and defaults: - If attachment name is not specified in `sendFile()` or `xSendFile()`, it will be taken from the name of the file served. - Each file sending method could also be provided with optional mime type and optional content disposition. - If mime type is omitted, for `sendContentAsFile()`, `sendFile()` and `xSendFile()` it will be determined based on the file content. For other methods or when unable to determine the mime type, "application/octet-stream" will be used. - Content disposition is "attachment" by default. It will trigger browser's download dialog. If you want the content of the file to be displayed inline, set it to `Yiisoft\Http\ContentDispositionHeader\ContentDispositionHeader::INLINE`.
