Client download from remote URL in SvelteKit?

[Vervo7]

In PHP, I just do something like this:

$file_url = 'https://www.someremoteserver.com/remotefile.pdf';
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: Binary');
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename=custom-file-name.pdf' );
readfile($file_url);

This forces a client download without exposing the original URL.

How can I do this in SvelteKit?

I believe you can do it using fetch.

export const get = async () => {
	const res = await fetch(`your url`)
	return {
		headers: { /* your headers */ },
		body: res.body
	}
}

Thanks, mustofa-id! I was using https://www.npmjs.com/package/got but fetch seems a better solution.

sure, so you don't need additional dependency.
