How to Use Android Downloads Provider

In Android Platform, it supports some ways to download files from URLs via HttpURLConnection or HttpClient, or DownloadProvider.When you write an android programm with Eclipse, try to import:
The Eclipse gives a red error prompting and complains:
The import android.provider.Downloads cannot be resolved
Oops…
The download manager is not part of the public SDK, and there are no relational API description in Android developers Reference.Comment in sources frameworks/base/core/java/android/provider/Downloads.java, says: “For 1.0 the download manager can’t deal with abuse from untrusted apps, so this API is hidden.” Refer to the document description from: packages/providers/DownloadProvider/docs/index.html. we Know that Browser / Gmail / Market / Updater depend on the download manager. Yes, show some screenshots in the market:
use downloadprovider in android market
android market downloads shows in the statebar.
We maybe can’t compile with Eclipse, but we can write an Android.mk makefile, use mmm to do it.
===========================================
First, you want to compile all the android code, and then put your project to packages/apps/ , create Android.mk file in the root of your project, can refer to the Browser’s Android.mk, or others.
. build/envsetup.sh
mmm packages/apps/your_project
===========================================
DownloadProvider is very easy to use.First, declare permission in AndroidManifest.xml:
And then just need to fill some field values:
Notes
Downloads.FILENAME_HINT, for a demo, here, I put the file into SD Card, the download directory, without checking any exception.
Downloads.NOTIFICATION_CLASS, you want to write a DownloadReceiver class, which extends BroadcastReceiver, and handle the message Downloads.DOWNLOAD_COMPLETED_ACTION or Downloads.NOTIFICATION_CLICKED_ACTION. like this:
By here, we need to modify the AndroidManifest.xml, add:
Maybe, you don’t like show the the Download state in status bar, just change Downloads.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE to Downloads.VISIBILITY_HIDDEN
and even, maybe you would like to show the download progress in the Activity, little case.
Add a ProgressBar and a Handler to display and refresh the progress, I suppose you should know how to do. You also can write a class extends ContentObserver to observer the download status.
The last step, delete the history data:
This code snippet should be write into a function in really code.
Read the code packages/apps/Browser for a more complete example.
Update:Since Android 2.2, the Downloads’s api has changed, they put some variables input a sub class which named Impl, so you should check it in the source code.

DownloadProvider is very easy to use.First, declare permission in AndroidManifest.xml:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" ></uses-permission><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_DOWNLOAD_MANAGER" ></uses-permission>
And then just need to fill some field values:
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();String url = "http://blog.lytsing.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/android_downloadprovider_market.jpg";values.put(Downloads.URI, url);values.put(Downloads.MIMETYPE, "image/jpeg");values.put(Downloads.FILENAME_HINT, getFullFilename("android_downloadprovider_market.jpg"));values.put(Downloads.TITLE, "screenshot");values.put(Downloads.DESCRIPTION, "screenshot file for DownloadProvider Demo");values.put(Downloads.VISIBILITY, Downloads.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE);values.put(Downloads.NOTIFICATION_CLASS, "org.lytsting.android.downloads.DownloadReceiver");values.put(Downloads.NOTIFICATION_PACKAGE, "org.lytsting.android.downloads");getContentResolver().insert(Downloads.CONTENT_URI, values);
private String getFullFilename(String filename) { return Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + "/download/" + filename);}
Notes
Downloads.FILENAME_HINT, for a demo, here, I put the file into SD Card, the download directory, without checking any exception.
Downloads.NOTIFICATION_CLASS, you want to write a DownloadReceiver class, which extends BroadcastReceiver, and handle the message Downloads.DOWNLOAD_COMPLETED_ACTION or Downloads.NOTIFICATION_CLICKED_ACTION. like this:
public class DownloadReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { static final String TAG = "DownloadReceiver"; @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { Log.d(TAG, intent.getAction()); if (intent.getAction().equals(Downloads.NOTIFICATION_CLICKED_ACTION)) { Intent activityIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); activityIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); activityIntent.setClass(context, Downloads.class); // Downloads Activity try { context.startActivity(activityIntent); } catch (ActivityNotFoundException ex) { Log.d(TAG, "no activity for Downloads.NOTIFICATION_CLICKED_ACTION" + ex); } } else if (intent.getAction().equals(Downloads.DOWNLOAD_COMPLETED_ACTION)) { // balabala } }}
By here, we need to modify the AndroidManifest.xml, add:
<receiver android:name=".DownloadReceiver" android:permission="android.permission.SEND_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETED_INTENTS" android:exported="true" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.DOWNLOAD_COMPLETED"> </action> </intent-filter> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.DOWNLOAD_NOTIFICATION_CLICKED"> </action> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"> </category> <data android:scheme="content"> </data> </intent-filter></receiver>
Maybe, you don’t like show the the Download state in status bar, just change Downloads.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE to Downloads.VISIBILITY_HIDDEN
and even, maybe you would like to show the download progress in the Activity, little case.
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query( Downloads.CONTENT_URI, new String[] { Downloads._ID, Downloads.CURRENT_BYTES, Downloads.TOTAL_BYTES, Downloads.STATUS }, " " + Downloads.MIMETYPE + " = 'image/jpeg'", null, Downloads._ID);if (c == null) { return;}// Columns match projection in query abovefinal int idColumn = 0;final int currentBytesColumn = 1;final int totalBytesColumn = 2;final int statusColumn = 3;c.moveToFirst();long totalBytes = c.getLong(totalBytesColumn);long currentBytes = c.getLong(currentBytesColumn);c.close();
Add a ProgressBar and a Handler to display and refresh the progress, I suppose you should know how to do. You also can write a class extends ContentObserver to observer the download status.
The last step, delete the history data:
getContentResolver().delete(Downloads.CONTENT_URI, "(" + Downloads.TITLE + " = 'screenshot')", null);
This code snippet should be write into a function in really code.
Read the code packages/apps/Browser for a more complete example.
Update:Since Android 2.2, the Downloads’s api has changed, they put some variables input a sub class which named Impl, so you should check it in the source code.
