The DownloadAsync method in the Editor.EditorUtility class is a static method used to asynchronously download a file from a specified URL and save it to a target file path. It provides progress updates and supports cancellation.
To use the DownloadAsync method, provide the URL of the file to download, the target file path where the file should be saved, a callback for progress updates, and a cancellation token to support task cancellation.
The method returns a Task<bool> that completes with true if the download is successful, or false if it fails.
// Example usage of DownloadAsync
string url = "https://example.com/file.zip";
string targetFile = "C:\Downloads\file.zip";
var progressCallback = new Sandbox.Utility.DataProgress.Callback((progress) => {
// Handle progress updates
Console.WriteLine($"Download progress: {progress * 100}%");
});
var cancellationToken = new System.Threading.CancellationToken();
var downloadTask = Editor.EditorUtility.DownloadAsync(url, targetFile, progressCallback, cancellationToken);
// Await the task to ensure completion
bool success = await downloadTask;
if (success)
{
// Handle successful download
Console.WriteLine("Download completed successfully.");
}
else
{
// Handle download failure
Console.WriteLine("Download failed.");
}
