downloadAsset( )

function downloadAsset(options: any): Promise

Description

Downloads an asset (model file) without loading it into memory.

This function is specifically designed for download-only operations and doesn't accept runtime configuration options like modelConfig or delegate. Use this for download-only operations instead of loadModel for better semantic clarity.

Parameters

• assetSrc: The location from which the asset is downloaded (local path, remote URL, or Hyperdrive URL)
• seed: Optional boolean for hyperdrive seeding
• onProgress: Optional callback for download progress |

Returns

Promise

Examples

// Download model without loading
const assetId = await downloadAsset({
  assetSrc: "/path/to/model.gguf",
  seed: true
});

// Download with progress tracking
const assetId = await downloadAsset({
  assetSrc: "pear://key123/model.gguf",
  onProgress: (progress) => {
    console.log(`Downloaded: ${progress.percentage}%`);
  }
});
