I can't stop a download.

[AnderAmorim]

Hello, I need help to stop a download.

I tried as follows:

let task = RNBackgroundDownloader.download ({
 id: 'file123',
 url: 'https: //link-to-very.large/file.zip'
 destination: `$ {RNBackgroundDownloader.directories.documents} / file.zip`
}). begin ((expectedBytes) => {
 console.log (`Going to download $ {expectedBytes} bytes!`);
}). progress ((percent) => {
 console.log (`Downloaded: $ {percent * 100}%`);
}). done (() => {
 console.log ('Download is done!');
}). error ((error) => {
console.log ('Download canceled due to error:', error);
});
task.stop ();

However, when calling task.stop the download is not stopped. When giving a console.log in task.stop I get undefined.

I also tried to list downloads in progress and outline the task I wanted to stop:

async function stopDownload(download);
    let lostTasks = await RNBackgroundDownloader.checkForExistingDownloads ();
    for (let task of lostTasks) {
      if (task.id == download.id) {
        task.stop
      }
    };

With that I get the following error:

Any solution?

@AnderAmorim I had this issue, I just changed it to _${downloadId}

Thanks for the suggestion Sidferreira. But where more specifically would this change be made? I couldn't see it exactly.

[sidferreira]

When you start the download, you are setting the id with a value that works as int. If you change id: 123 to id: "_123" it might address the issue

I understand now. I will check if this is the error.
Once again, thank you very much!
