🔖 Feature description

Just as Storage.createFile has an optional onProgress callback, it would be very helpful for getFileDownload and getFileView to have an onProgress callback also for the download progress.

Alternatively, the API could allow plugging in custom http clients (such as Dio?) which already have hooks for tracking request/response progress.

🎤 Pitch

This would allow dynamic updating of the UI in response to downloads, especially for larger files. an onProgress callback could update a ProgressBar, indicate to the user the estimated wait time for the download to complete, etc.

A workaround for public files is to create the URL manually (see appwrite/sdk-for-flutter#63) and use a different http client altogether which tracks progress. But this won't work for files requiring authentication.

any update on this? Having public files isn't a valid and secure approach. Thanks

Did the progress for the file work for you? I did not in my case

I also encounter the same issue, I cannot check the progress of the large file download. Please consider to add this feature!
