Receive files instead of json objects

[Gaedr]

I want to create a resource to obtain a file from a backend like csv or pdf.

I've trying to use a modify Resource class to obtain the content and transform to Blob object to save the file. But no matter I do the response always transform the result into an JSON object.

I try with this ResourceAction:

@ResourceAction({
    method: RequestMethod.Get,
    path: 'reporte/',
    responseInterceptor: (observable: Observable<any>) => {
      return observable.map(res => res._body ? res._body : null);
    },
    map: (res) => {
       console.debug(res);
       return res;
    }
  })
  informe: ResourceMethod<IQueryInforme, any>;

In this map property I write the response and all it is ok but when I subscript the observable it is parse to JSON object and transform every character into a property. Like that:

{0: "i", 1: "d", 2: "|", 3: "n", 4: "o", 5: "m", 6: "b", 7: "r", ... }

I know this is possible with the Http library of angular but I cannot get it with this library.

Is possible to do that with the library? If it is, please show me how

Hello @Gaedr
It's not possible to download files with the library.

Is this true anymore? Can't we override an Action's reponseType now?
