Get download progress in Node.js with request

Question

I\'m creating an updater that downloads application files using the Node module request. How can I use chunk.length to estimate the remaining file

Answer 1

This should get you the total you want:

req.on( 'response', function ( data ) {
    console.log( data.headers[ 'content-length' ] );
} );

I get a content length of 9404541
