SOLID POD: Read and write binary data

cdawei commented 5 months ago

The readPod() and writePod() implicitly requires the data to read/write is a string.

However, this won't be the case when reading / writing EEG data. Solidpod needs to support the read / write of binary data (i.e. bytes) in addition to text data.

Please follow the below steps to test.

Start demopod
Click Upload / Download Large File button
Click Browse button to choose a local file to upload (I used the ZIP archive of this EEG folder on next cloud)
Click Upload button, which shows a progress bar as illustrated in the screenshot below
To test download or delete functionality, click the Download or the Delete button, and expect a similar a progress bar.
After testing upload, download, and delete, expecting to see something like the screenshot below.
