const downloadDir = Platform.OS === 'android' ? RNFS.DownloadDirectoryPath : RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath; const localFilePath =${downloadDir}/${fileName};  RNFS.downloadFile({ fromUrl: base64String, toFile: localFilePath, }) .promise.then(() => { Alert.alert( 'Download complete', 'File has been downloaded successfully', ); console.log('File downloaded to:', localFilePath); // Open the file using any viewer (if needed) openFile(localFilePath); }) .catch(error => { console.error('Download failed:', error); Alert.alert('Download failed', 'Unable to download the file.'); });
const openFile = (filePath) => { FileViewer.open(filePath) .then(() => { console.log('File opened successfully'); }) .catch((error) => { console.error('Failed to open file:', error); }); };
