Dear all,

I want to websave some .edf files with the function created below. My problem is that I just get the .html's instead of downloading it. This isn't the case when downloading some .txt files. That is, it works for .txt and not for .edf.

I will attach a list of .edf's ('apri_edf.xls') and a list of .txt ('founded_medicine_folder_ohne_.xls'), so you can try it yourself.

cellArrayData=readcell('apri_edf.xls')
folderName='apri_edfs'
downloadFolderContentToHardDrive(cellArrayData, folderName)
% downlaods files to the hard drive from a list of urls in cellArrayData
% cellArrayData     CellArray with expected data
%                   1) file/folder
%                   2) last modified time/date
%                   3) file type
% folderName        Name of the folder in which the data will be saved
% hint: run listAllDirectories first if excel file is not yet available
% recursion
function downloadFolderContentToHardDrive(cellArrayData, folderName)
import matlab.net.http.*
    
    %check if folder already exists, otherwise create one
    folderName = string(folderName); 
    
    if ~exist(folderName, 'dir')
        mkdir(folderName); 
    end 
    for i = 1:size(cellArrayData,1)
        %at first does the string represent a folder
        if strcmp(cellArrayData{i,3}, 'folder')
            dirName = getFileNameFromURLstring(cellArrayData{i,1});
            tempFolderName = folderName; 
            
            %ensure that all subfolders are build correctly
            if endsWith(dirName, '/')
                folderName = strcat(folderName, dirName); 
            else
                folderName = strcat(folderName, dirName, '/');
            end 
            
            %get all files in the folder
            len = length(cellArrayData{i,1}); %length of string in that cell array entry
            subArrayData = cellArrayData(strncmp(cellArrayData{i,1}, cellArrayData(:,1), len), :);
            
            %subtract from original data array to not download data twice
            len = size(subArrayData, 1) - 1; 
            cellArrayData(i+1 : i+len, :) = []; 
                       
            %delete first row, otherwise will have too many folders around
            subArrayData(1,:) = [];  
            
            %recursion for the win
            downloadFolderContentToHardDrive(subArrayData, folderName); 
            %reset folderName
            folderName = tempFolderName; 
            
            %check if I'm done with the the cell array
            %otherwise get an error with out of bound since I'm deleting
            %entries for recursion 
            if i == size(cellArrayData, 1)
                break; 
            else
                continue
            end
        %skip loop iterration when data is not empty or first line or missing  
        elseif  isempty(cellArrayData{i,1}) 
            continue 
        elseif ismissing(cellArrayData{i,1})
            continue
        elseif strcmp(cellArrayData{i,1}, 'file type')
            continue
        end
        
        %get filename
        if endsWith(folderName, '/')
            filename = strcat(folderName, getFileNameFromURLstring(cellArrayData{i,1}));
        else 
            filename = strcat(folderName, '/', getFileNameFromURLstring(cellArrayData{i,1})); 
        end
        
        %finally save the data
        options = weboptions('Username', '...', 'Password', '...', 'Timeout', 60); 
        url = cellArrayData{i,1}; 
        
        try
            websave(filename, url, options); 
        catch
            pause(10);
            websave(filename, url, options); 
            disp('saving failed: ' + filename) 
        end 
    
    end 
end
%returns the file name from an url string
function fileName = getFileNameFromURLstring(url)
    x = strsplit(url, '/'); 
    
    if strcmp(x(end), "")
        %folder
        fileName = x(end -1); 
    else
        %not a folder
        fileName = x(end); 
    end
end
