Module download 

Native weight download and on-disk cache (download feature).

Fetches a model’s weight files over HTTP, verifies their SHA-256, and stores them under super::cache_dir. This is the “download on use” path for native hosts (e.g. QSMxT). It is not compiled for wasm32-unknown-unknown, where hosts fetch weights themselves and hand them over with super::provide_weights.

Enums

DownloadError

Error from resolving or downloading model weights.

Constants

MAX_ATTEMPTS 🔒

Max HTTP attempts for a single weight file (1 initial + 4 retries).

Functions

checksum_ok 🔒

ensure_file

Ensure a single weight file is present locally, downloading it if needed, and return its path. See ensure_file_with_progress.

ensure_file_with_progress

Like ensure_file, but reports download progress via on_progress(downloaded, total) (bytes). total is the registry-declared size (WeightFile::bytes), falling back to the response Content-Length. Not called on a cache hit.

ensure_model

Ensure every weight file for a model is present, returning their paths in ModelSpec::files order.

http_get 🔒

Fetch a URL with exponential-backoff retries, streaming the body and reporting on_progress(downloaded, total) as it goes (total from expected_total, else the response Content-Length, else 0 = unknown). Progress resets to 0 at the start of each attempt (a retried download restarts from the beginning).

http_get_once 🔒

One HTTP GET, streamed in chunks. Returns (message, retryable) on failure.

write_atomically 🔒

write_cached 🔒

Write bytes into the cache as file, atomically: a temp file unique to this writer, then a rename over the final name.
