Hi Nirmala,

I tried an example as below and it seems to be working:

1st parameter is the local path where file should be saved and second parameter being the remote location of the file to be downloaded.

node.download_file('hello.c','/home/rocky/hello.c')

Could you please share which version of fablib are you using?

Best,

Komal

Hello Komal

not sure where to check for the fablib version.

We have been working on the C code for quite some time. we edit the code and upload and at times download to save the working code. This time when we download it was saving as a text file.

 

thanks

This was resolved offline.

Issue here was downloading .c code from JH container to desktop results in txt files.

Recommended solution: Create a tar file of the entire directory and download the directory.

Best,

Komal
