↔️Median JavaScript Bridge

To download a file:

median.share.downloadFile({url: 'https://yoursite.com/file.pdf', open: true|false})
// Note: 'open' is an Android-only parameter, refer to below

On iOS, the file is downloaded and passed to the "open with" system dialog.

On Android, if Downloads Folder is set on the Permissions tab, by default the file will be downloaded silently. If the open: true parameter is set once the download is complete an "open with" dialog will be displayed.

On Android, if Private to App is set on the Permissions tab, the file will be downloaded internally and your app will always display an "open with" dialog.
