Pass export file name

[eggzilla]

Hi, this is a feature request :-)
Would it be possible to pass a filename for export via
a parameter in the request URL?
For example append &export_name=peterisawesomerna
http://rna.tbi.univie.ac.at/forna/forna.html?id=fasta&file=%3Eheader\nCCAAGACAUUCUUGAGGCAGCGGAUCGUCAGAAUAACGAUACGCGCCGCACGGCCAAUGGCCGACCGCAGGAGACGAUUAACGCCAAUCUGCGCGCAUAAGCAGAACCUGCGGAAUUUUACGUCUUGGAAGUGAUGUACGGAGCAUAAGAGCAAUGACCGAAUCAAAAGUAAAGACACCGAUC\n(((((((......(.(((.(((..((((.......))))..)))))).).(((((...))))).(((((((......(((.(((........)))..)))......)))))))........)))))))...((((...(((..(((.......))).))).))))..................&export_name=peterisawesomerna

Thanks egg

Do you want that to essentially become an API so that you can automatically get an SVG from visiting that URL or are you just saying that the passed in export_name should be the default filename that is used when saving an SVG?

Hey, thanks for the fast reply! I mean the second variant.

Cool. That's certainly the easier option. Unfortunately, I'm not sure when I'll have time to do this but if you want to try yourself, the code for saving SVGs is here:

https://github.com/pkerpedjiev/forna/blob/c5a911f88162fa6c9a8d126b13ce7e2da89c1edb/htdocs/js/interface.js#L1278

Url parameters are in the queries variable in interface.js:

It should be relatively simple to combine the two to achieve what you want. If you want to implement this, I'm happy to merge a PR.

Thanks! I will give it a try :-)

Hi egg, have you succeeded or do you need help here?

Unknown, I will investigate if I implemented a workaround. Thanks for asking.
