What is the best way to download a big file in NodeJS?

Question

The below server code is working fine for 5GB file using wget http://localhost:11146/base/bigFile.zip but not using client side code.

Serve

Answer 1

var request = require('request')
request('http:/localhost:11146/base/bigFile.zip', function (error, response, body) {
  console.log('error:', error); // Print the error if one occurred
  console.log('statusCode:', response && response.statusCode); // Print the response status code if a response was received
  console.log('body:', body); // Print the HTML for the Google homepage.
});

It should be http://localhost:11146/base/bigFile.zip instead of http:/localhost:11146/base/bigFile.zip
