Module name 

Choosing a downloaded file’s name and creating it without replacing anything.

Structs

Partial 🔒

A file being downloaded: name.part in folder, which becomes name, or name (1) and so on, once it is saved.

Constants

FALLBACK_FILE_NAME 🔒

The name a file gets when its address doesn’t end in one, such as https://example.com/.

NAME_REPLACEMENT 🔒

PARTIAL_SUFFIX 🔒

Added to a file’s name while it downloads, so a file left behind, as when the app quits mid-download on macOS, reads as unfinished.

RESERVED_NAMES 🔒

Names Windows keeps for devices, with or without an extension, such as nul.txt.

UNSAFE_NAME_CHARS 🔒

Characters some file systems refuse in names, replaced by NAME_REPLACEMENT.

Functions

create_new 🔒

Creates path for writing; None when something is there already.

file_name 🔒

The last part of the address’s path, decoded and made safe to use as a file name.

numbered 🔒

name, or for copies after the first, name (copy) before its extension.

partial_path 🔒

safe_file_name 🔒

name made safe to use as a file name in any folder, on every system: characters some file systems refuse become NAME_REPLACEMENT, so it can’t leave its folder either.
