Feature Request: ApiClient.stat / ApiClient.metadata

[Finni123]

There is no way to properly download an Image on android, or am I missing something really obvious?

stat and metadata don't exist in the Java API Client and I need them for this. The java sample uses a File for this, but unfortunately, that doesn't work on android since the pcloud files don't appear in the regular folder structure, thus I have to use the API.

(Also, getthumb would be great, too)

@Finni123 ,

• For obtaining the metadata of a single file by its file id you can use PCloudApiClient.loadFile().
• For getting a list of files and their metadata of folder by its folder id you can use the PCloudApiClient.loadFolder().
• Downloads of files are done via one of the variants of PCloudApiClient.download(). Two of the variants will open and return a BufferedSource (see Okio's docs) streams which you can use to read the contents of a remote (@PCloud) file to some arbitrary destination as you please. The other download()overloads accept a DataSink, which is an abstraction over a destination for the bytes of the file to be downloaded. There is a factory method that accepts a java.io.File as a destination, you can also roll your own implementation.
