How to get the name of a file downloaded with Angular $http?

问题

I've written code that uses Angular $http to download a file. The name of the file is not specified in the URL. The URL contains a unique identifier for the file, which is fetched from outside the application.

When $http.get(myUrl) is called, everything works fine; the file is retrieved and I can access it in my callback handler, but I can't see how to get the name of the file. Capturing the raw response with Fiddler, I see this:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Cache-Control: private
Content-Length: 54
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Server: Microsoft-IIS/8.5
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://www.example.com/getFile/12345
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=testfile.txt
X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
Date: Fri, 09 Oct 2015 20:25:49 GMT

Lorem ipsum dolar sit amet!  The contents of my file!

From the above, it is clear that the server is sending back the name of the file in the "Content-Disposition", but I haven't found anyway to access it within my Angular callback. How do I get the name of the file from the headers?

Edit in response to answer below: I should have mentioned before that I already tried response.headers(). It returns Object {content-type: "application/octet-stream", cache-control: "private"}, so I still don't get Content-Disposition for some reason. response.headers('Content-Disposition') returns null.

回答1:

It may be worth mentioning that in order to get the file name from the HTTP headers, extracting the Content-Disposition header is not enough. You still need to obtain the filename property from this header value.

Example of header value returned: attachment; filename="myFileName.pdf".

The function below will extract filename="myFileName.pdf", then extract "myFileName.pdf" and finally remove the extra quotes around to get myFileName.pdf.

You can use the snippet below:

  function getFileNameFromHttpResponse(httpResponse) {
      var contentDispositionHeader = httpResponse.headers('Content-Disposition');
      var result = contentDispositionHeader.split(';')[1].trim().split('=')[1];
      return result.replace(/"/g, '');
  }

回答2:

If you use CORS, you need to add the "Access-Control-Expose-Headers" to the response headers at server side. For example: Access-Control-Expose-Headers: x-filename, x-something-else

回答3:

Web API: I found that adding the following line of code into the ExecuteAsync(...) method of my IHttpActionResult implementation worked ('response' is the HttpResponseMessage to be returned):

response.Content.Headers.Add("Access-Control-Expose-Headers", "Content-Disposition");

Angular: I was then able to resolve the filename in angular as follows ('response' is the resolved promise from $http.get):

var contentDisposition = response.headers('Content-Disposition');
var filename = contentDisposition.split(';')[1].split('filename')[1].split('=')[1].trim();

回答4:

Similar to some of the above answers but using a basic RegEx is how I solved it instead:

let fileName = parseFilenameFromContentDisposition(response.headers('Content-Disposition'));

function parseFilenameFromContentDisposition(contentDisposition) {
    if (!contentDisposition) return null;
    let matches = /filename="(.*?)"/g.exec(contentDisposition);

    return matches && matches.length > 1 ? matches[1] : null;
}

回答5:

Use response.headers to get http response headers:

$http.get(myUrl).then(function (response) {
    // extract filename from response.headers('Content-Disposition')
} 

回答6:

Maybe you already find solution, but I will post this answer if someone else has this problem.

Add these parameters in the success callback function from the $http request:

    $http.get(myUrl).success(function (data, status, headers, config) {
        // extract filename from headers('Content-Disposition')
    });

回答7:

If response.headers('Content-Disposition') returns null, use response.headers.**get**('Content-Disposition');.

The rest of @andrew's snippet now works great.

回答8:

success(function(data, status, headers, response,xhr) {
    console.log(headers('Content-Disposition'));
}
