Phonegap Downloader

===================

This plugin allows downloading files from http urls just like its [android

counterpart](https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/Android/Downloader) does, with the same API. 

- "Plugins/" contains objc source code of the plugin

- "Downloader/" contains the project stuff created by PhoneGap project template for the sample project

- "Downloader.xcodeproj" is the sample project you should be able to open in XCode

- "www/" contains

    - coffeescript version of the plugin

    - javascript compiled version

    - an example of how it can be used

Notes on ARC: 

This plugin does not use the new iOS ARC facility. It's possible to convert it to ARC with the automatic XCode procedure. You will also have to change @property lines. Be careful to avoid Reference Cycles since DownloaderTasks retains NSURLConnection and NSURLConnection retains the DownloaderTask as it's delegate. One of the @property should be set to weak.

Installing

==========

Drag .h and .m files into your project's Plugins folder (in xcode) -- I always

just have "Create references" as the option selected.

Take the precompiled javascript file from www/, or compile the coffeescript

file (.coffee) to javascript WITH the top-level function wrapper option (default).

Use the resulting javascript file in your HTML.

Look for the following to your project's PhoneGap.plist:

    Plugins

    

      ...

    

Insert this in there:

General Usage

=============

Look at www/index.html for a very simple example.

Note that you can also download multiple files at once. Also this plugin ALWAYS OVERWRITES if the target file already exists.
