# Class MediaIoBaseDownload

source code

    "Download media resources.

    Note that the Python file object is compatible with io.Base and can be used
    with this class also.

    Example:
      request = farms.animals().get_media(id='cow')
      fh = io.FileIO('cow.png', mode='wb')
      downloader = MediaIoBaseDownload(fh, request, chunksize=1024*1024)

      done = False
      while done is False:
        status, done = downloader.next_chunk()
        if status:
          print "Download %d%%." % int(status.progress() * 100)
      print "Download Complete!"

### __init__(self, fd, request, chunksize=DEFAULT_CHUNK_SIZE) (Constructor) | source code
    Constructor.

    Args:
      fd: io.Base or file object, The stream in which to write the downloaded
        bytes.
      request: googleapiclient.http.HttpRequest, the media request to perform in
        chunks.
      chunksize: int, File will be downloaded in chunks of this many bytes.
Decorators: `@util.positional(3)` Overrides: object.__init__

### next_chunk(self, num_retries=0) | source code
    Get the next chunk of the download.

    Args:
      num_retries: Integer, number of times to retry with randomized
            exponential backoff. If all retries fail, the raised HttpError
            represents the last request. If zero (default), we attempt the
            request only once.

    Returns:
      (status, done): (MediaDownloadStatus, boolean)
         The value of 'done' will be True when the media has been fully
         downloaded.

    Raises:
      googleapiclient.errors.HttpError if the response was not a 2xx.
      httplib2.HttpLib2Error if a transport error has occured.
Decorators: `@util.positional(1)`
