Usage

Import the package and create an instance of CachedRemoteFile to start fetching and caching remote files.

import 'package:cached_remote_file/cached_remote_file.dart';

// Create a CachedRemoteFile instance
final cachedRemoteFile = CachedRemoteFile();

// Fetch a remote file and store it locally
final url = 'https://example.com/your-remote-file.txt';

try {
  final fileData = await cachedRemoteFile.get(url);
  if (fileData != null) {
    // Handle the downloaded file data (Uint8List)
  }
} catch (e) {
  // Handle errors
}

You can customize the behavior of the get method by providing optional parameters, such as headers, progress callbacks, and more.

// Example with optional parameters
final url = 'https://example.com/your-remote-file.txt';
final headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer your_access_token'};

try {
  final fileData = await cachedRemoteFile.get(
    url,
    headers: headers,
    force: false,
    method: 'GET',
    timeout: const Duration(seconds: 30),
    downloadProgressValue: (double percentage) {
      // Handle download progress
    },
  );
  if (fileData != null) {
    // Handle the downloaded file data (Uint8List)
  }
} catch (e) {
  // Handle errors
}
