Checking amount of "disk space" left on device

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion

We are getting close to having the marketplace ready.   We did a soft launch last week (no big fan fair).  Just go to the regular plugins page and see what’s there.  There is a form that you can fill out to suggest plugins you would like to do.  We will review them and get up with you for the process of actually submitting the plugins.  Initially we are only going to support free plugins as we continue to work out the accounting side.

So any Enterprise developer can fill out this form to get things started.

I take that as it’s not yet possible to check if downloads to the app sandbox will fill up the phone. Right?

#23

Correct.  It is not possible using Corona SDK to detect this.

Long time since I originally posted this but still keen to find a solution if possible. Does anybody know if there is / likely to be any way of ascertaining how much space is left on the user’s device so I can check before downloading content into my app?

Thanks,

If you want to use Enterprise, you can looked at this thread:

You can take a couple of our Enterprise tutorials and implement this quite easily.
