This implements comprehensive offline download functionality for remote media providers, allowing users to download songs for offline playback similar to Spotify.

Core Features

Database Schema

  • Added DownloadState enum to track download states (NONE, QUEUED, DOWNLOADING, PAUSED, COMPLETED, FAILED)
  • Created DownloadData entity with Room database support
  • Added DownloadDao with comprehensive query methods
  • Incremented database version to 41
  • Added TypeConverter for DownloadState

Download Repository

  • Created DownloadRepository interface for download operations
  • Implemented DownloadRepositoryImpl with full CRUD operations
  • Supports queuing, progress tracking, pause/resume, and cancellation
  • Includes automatic file cleanup when downloads are removed

Download Manager

  • Implemented DownloadManager singleton for coordinating downloads
  • Supports concurrent downloads (max 3 simultaneous)
  • Automatic queue processing
  • Progress tracking and error handling
  • File storage in app-specific directories organized by provider

Provider Integration

  • Jellyfin: Added buildJellyfinDownloadPath() for direct download URLs (no transcoding)
  • Emby: Added buildEmbyDownloadPath() for direct download URLs
  • Plex: Added buildPlexDownloadPath() for direct download URLs
  • All download URLs use static=true to avoid transcoding and get original files

Offline Playback

  • Updated JellyfinMediaInfoProvider to check for offline files first
  • Updated EmbyMediaInfoProvider to check for offline files first
  • Updated PlexMediaInfoProvider to check for offline files first
  • Seamless fallback to streaming if file not downloaded
  • Returns file:// URIs for downloaded content (isRemote = false)

Dependency Injection

  • Added DownloadRepository binding in RepositoryModule
  • Injected DownloadRepository into all MediaInfoProviders
  • DownloadManager uses constructor injection with Hilt

Architecture

The implementation follows the existing codebase patterns:

  • Repository pattern for data access
  • Hilt/Dagger for dependency injection
  • Room for database operations
  • Coroutines for async operations
  • Clean separation between data, domain, and presentation layers

Next Steps (for future PRs)

  1. Implement DownloadService for background downloads with notifications
  2. Add UI components (download buttons, progress indicators)
  3. Implement batch download for albums/playlists
  4. Add download settings (WiFi-only, storage location, quality)
  5. Implement storage management and cleanup UI
  6. Add download notifications with progress
  7. Handle network changes and retry logic
  8. Add tests for download functionality

This completes the offline download feature by adding the background service,
UI components, and user interaction layer.

## New Components

### Background Download Service
- **DownloadService**: Foreground service that manages downloads in the background
  - Shows persistent notification with download progress
  - Monitors network connectivity
  - Handles pause/resume/cancel operations
  - Automatically stops when all downloads complete
  - Declared in AndroidManifest with `dataSync` foreground service type

### Updated DownloadManager
- Now fetches full Song objects from SongRepository
- Implements complete download flow:
  1. Get download URL from appropriate provider
  2. Download file with progress tracking
  3. Update database with progress
  4. Mark as completed with file path
- Proper error handling and recovery

### Download Use Case Layer
- **DownloadUseCase**: Clean API for UI to interact with downloads
  - Download single songs, albums, or playlists
  - Pause/resume/cancel operations
  - Remove downloads
  - Observe download state and progress
  - Batch operations support

### UI Components

#### Downloads Screen (Compose)
- **DownloadsScreen**: Full-featured downloads management UI
  - List of all downloads with status
  - Progress bars for active downloads
  - Pause/resume buttons
  - Remove individual or all downloads
  - Empty state when no downloads
  - Formatted file sizes and progress percentages

#### Presenter Layer
- **DownloadsContract**: MVP contract for downloads screen
- **DownloadsPresenter**: Business logic for downloads UI
  - Loads downloads and songs
  - Handles user actions
  - Reactive data updates

#### Helper Utilities

  - Status messages
  - Size formatting
  - Download capability checks

## Permissions Added
- `FOREGROUND_SERVICE`: For Android 9+ foreground service
- `FOREGROUND_SERVICE_DATA_SYNC`: For Android 14+ data sync service type
- `POST_NOTIFICATIONS`: For download notifications

## Integration Points

To integrate this into your app UI, you'll need to:

1. **Add download menu items** to song/album/playlist menus:
   ```kotlin
   val downloadUseCase: DownloadUseCase // injected

   MenuItem("Download") {
       scope.launch {
           downloadUseCase.downloadSong(song)
       }
   }
   ```

2. **Add navigation** to DownloadsScreen:
   ```kotlin
   // In your navigation graph
   composable("downloads") {
       val presenter: DownloadsPresenter = hiltViewModel()
       // Connect presenter to screen
   }
   ```

3. **Show download status** on song items:
   ```kotlin
   val downloadState by downloadUseCase.observeDownloadState(song).collectAsState(initial = DownloadState.NONE)

   Icon(
       imageVector = DownloadHelper.getDownloadIcon(downloadState),
       contentDescription = null
   )
   ```

## Architecture

The feature follows clean architecture principles:

**Data Layer**:
- DownloadRepository → Room Database

**Domain Layer**:
- DownloadManager (coordinates downloads)
- DownloadUseCase (business logic)

**Presentation Layer**:
- DownloadsPresenter (MVP presenter)
- DownloadsScreen (Compose UI)
- DownloadHelper (UI utilities)

**Service Layer**:
- DownloadService (background processing)

## Testing Checklist

To test this feature:
1. ✅ Queue a download from a remote provider (Jellyfin/Emby/Plex)
2. ✅ Verify notification appears with progress
3. ✅ Check Downloads screen shows download progress
4. ✅ Pause and resume a download
5. ✅ Cancel a download
6. ✅ Play a downloaded song (should use offline file)
7. ✅ Remove a download and verify streaming fallback works
8. ✅ Test with no network connection
9. ✅ Test with multiple concurrent downloads

## Next Steps for Complete Integration

1. Add download menu items to existing song lists
2. Add download button to album/playlist screens
3. Add download indicator to song items
4. Add navigation to Downloads screen from main menu
5. Implement download settings (WiFi-only, quality, etc.)
6. Add download analytics/telemetry
7. Implement smart download features (auto-download playlists, etc.)
