Serve BIN file on GET request

I'm looking for a way to serve a bin file (with sensitivity for changes) upon GET request, and read the callback once download was complete/successful.
I understand its not possible to serve file for download using this module (no root dir) but perhaps there is a cool way like in your example?

You want to serve a bin file from an android phone with this plugin?
Does I understood this correctly?

captainreptile commented

Yes, i want to serve a single bin file from Android/IOS and get a callback when my bin file was downloaded.
After i posted my initial question i found this module that might do
https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/2.9.0/cordova/file/filereader/filereader.html

@captainreptile You could surely combine this plugin with the filereader api.

Would you like to take this challenge for few good tannenzapfle? :)

bykof commented

@captainreptile I love tannenzäpfle :D But I'm currently writing my bachelor.
So there is sadly no time for open source projects.

I think that the implementation should be done in your code and not in this repository.
In your own code you should retrieve a request and response with the read file.

@bykof I was thinking perhaps you may take this challenge and implement directly in my app - not an opensource

bykof commented

@captainreptile Oh, no. As I said, I am currently busy.
Good luck with you app :)

captainreptile commented

@bykof Thank you, and wish you the best with your bachelor challenge !!
