Ability to download exported projects with the download manager

Open yanirmr opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Describe the bug I manage all my downloads using a download manager (in my case, IDM), and exporting projects from INCEpTION is not possible because that means it is not possible to download the same file twice. To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Use any download manager other than the browser to download files. Internet Download Manager is one option.
  2. Go to a random project > export
  3. Click on Start export
  4. Click on Download
  5. See an error

Expected behavior It is expected that the download will proceed as usual.

The file is deleted once the download is done (also if a download is started and then aborted). If we do not delete the file, they start piling up on the server harddisk and it will eventually run out of space.

It may be possible to allow this scenario in the future by generating the export ZIP on the fly instead of preparing it server-side.

Maybe you can configure an exclude for the INCEpTION server in your download manager. I assume there are more sites on the internet which may also be incompatible with such software, so there probably is some exclude functionality.
