Feature-request: download all sketches as zip

Open dhowe opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Apologies if this already exists, but would be very useful to be able to bulk download all sketches from the 'My Sketches' page

Thanks for the suggestion! I thought there was an open issue about this but apparently there is not. A related issue is #273.

I'd like to take a crack at this if no one else is working on it.

I'd like to work on this if no one is currently working on it.

So currently the editor uses JSZip to make a zip file of a sketch using this controller:

https://github.com/processing/p5.js-web-editor/blob/f21b84772c85927f8016d7c23aef7ad1a5a41b64/server/controllers/project.controller.js#L289-L294

The same library can be used for all the current sketches of a user. We can use the getProjects controller that returns an array of all projects of a user, and then iterate through this array to add all the projects in a single zip file.

Similar fix can be done for #273

Please assign either or both of these issues to me. @lindapaiste @raclim

@mhsh312 We may run into issues here due to the size of the zip. See #643. But let's start with what you are proposing and see how that goes.

@mhsh312 We may run into issues here due to the size of the zip. See #643.

Since #643 would be an issue for both individual and multiple sketches, I believe it should be addressed separately.
