As the title says, it does not clear the screen like it should on an error downloading the file

qr.json

{ "dsidl:src": "https://cdn.merith.xyz/test-bug.dsidl.json" }

dsidl:src

{
	"dsidl": 1,
	"script": {
		"dsidl-merith.dsi": "https://github.com/Merith-TK/dsidl/releases/download/release-test/dsidl.dsi", // NOTE THE COMMA AT THE END HERE
	}
}

will cause program to fail and print

A to swap, L/R to scan QR

Any idea on the maximum payload size?

I can successfully download a qr code with a URL that has 138 bytes (7-bit US-ASCII characters)this requires a json wrapper payload of 143-146 bytes.

I tried to adapt the 2nd example in https://github.com/Epicpkmn11/dsidl/wiki/Scripting with a destination filename but failed to read the QR code when the URL is 138 bytes. EDIT this is with https://github.com/Epicpkmn11/dsidl/releases/tag/v0.1.1

I think this means a limit of ~150 bytes. Thoughts?

Be great to get this documented.

basically, the thought process is that it can be used to point to an "setup.json" rather than an normal file

kinda like

{
  "dsidl" : {
    "files" : [
      "/data/config.txt" : "http://example.com/data/config.txt",
      "/program.nds" : "http://example.com/data/program.nds",
    ]
  }
}

where it then prompts the user that this is an multi-download QR, and then were they want this data saved (select for all or for single file at an time)

Just opening this up incase anyone has ideas, dsidl could definitely use a better icon as the one it has right now is just something I drew on my trackpad in GIMP and animated moving down lol

For the name, I think dsidl is alright. It's short and decently fun to say (I just say all the letters, dee es ai dee el), but I would also be open to better name suggestions as well

{ "dsidl:src" : "https://cdn.merith.xyz/dsi/_test_dir_/dsidl.json" }

{"dsidl":1,"script":{"root-file.txt":{"url":"https://cdn.merith.xyz/dsi/_test_dir_/root-file.txt"},"subfolder/subfile.txt":{"url":"https://cdn.merith.xyz/dsi/_test_dir_/subfolder/subfile.txt"}}}

errors downloading subfolder/subfile.txt

I made a small program so send files to DSi using this app (Here is repo) and ran into a problem, DSi Downloader gets filename not from header but from link's end (Problem is described in repo's readme under Bugs section)

QR codes in which the file name is rather long (such as the one attached below) don't allow you to scroll the text to see the beginning of the filename when setting a name, you can only see the end of it, so you kind of have to type it blind.

It's stuck at "Starting camera..." and with verbose logging on it's the same.
Im running hiyaCFW/unlaunch with TWImenu++ on the DSi XL.

qr.json

{
	"dsidl:src": "https://cdn.merith.xyz/test.dsidl.json"
}

dsidl:src

{
	"dsidl": 1,
	"script": {
		"dsidl-merith.dsi": "https://github.com/Merith-TK/dsidl/releases/download/release-test/dsidl.dsi"
	}
}

it will download dsidl-merith.dsi to sd:/ rather than prompting user,

I feel as if this functionality should prompt user where to store files if one of the strings does not start with an /
so that way if an file is required to be at / due to hardcoding, but the program itself doesnt nessecarily need to be stored at / it could be stored elsewhere
so this could be the format

{
	"dsidl": 1,
	"script": {
		"program.nds": "https://example.com/program.nds",
		"/program.config": "https://example.com/program.config"
	}
}

I seem to have run into a bug that cuts off the trailing slash before the filename in any directory that isn't root. In the attached image, I am trying to download a file into my "Homebrew" folder. This occurs every time I try to download.

Thanks for the great program!

Since downloading larger files (such as videos) may take a longer time to download, it would be nice if there were a prompt (or just doing it by default) to download it to a temp folder prior to choosing a directory & filename, then renaming & moving it to the chosen directory once it's done downloading, saving the user a bit of time (especially if they have a very specific naming structure and such).

I haven't had much success with QR recognition off of phone screen, so it got me thinking.

Requesting option to just input url via touch keyboard.
Now the tool can work as a wget too.

In my experience, when I hold select and start dsidl, it takes some time but eventually it works and I can use the application, but if i don't it just doesn't connect and nothing happens, even the wifi indicator doesn't blink at all.

tested on dsi xl, wpa2 psk

{ "dsidl:src" : "https://cdn.merith.xyz/dsi/microlua/dsidl.json" }

Yes I am aware I am blatantly rehosting microlua 4.7.2, its what I am using to test an auto generator for dsidl:src json files
as it stands it asks for every single file, which in that QR code, is 54 files, which as it currently works, I have to tap yes 54 times,

This DSi XL does not have unlaunch installed and instead uses the memory pit exploit to launch TWLMenu++.

The whole system turns off as soon I close the hinge of my DSi.

basically, for the advanced format, instead of linking to an specific file (which repeated connections and downoading for small files slows down)
Instead allow up to say... 8kb of text to be inside the advanced json as an text string rather than the url string (url takes priority)

in my testing, the QR Code outline boarder is not in the optimal position for scanning an QR code when lined up perfectly,

the outer corners of the QR code need to match the inner corners of the template,

it it possible that maybe it is grabbing the overlay on the image as well?

the idea is that we should alter the scheme to allow preventing downloading already existing files, provided an hash is provided (something basic like an md5?)

proposed altered format

{
	"dsidl": 1,
	"script": {
		"/program.nds": {
			"url": "https://github.com/Merith-TK/dsidl/releases/download/release-test/dsidl.dsi",
			"hash" : "2480be6feacb4c14564ca4922abfd852" // again, md5 hash
			"overwrite": false // if hash matches, dont overwrite
		},
		"/program.config": {
			"url": "https://example.com/program.config",
			"overwrite": false // in this case, if file matches, do not overwrite
		}
	}
}

if hash does not match, re-download the file,
this can save time should someone use the dsidl:src format for multiple files,
