URL of experiment: spelling [PsychoPy]
Description of the problem: I’m writing a spelling test where I want to download each word within the experiment.
Since I’m now using 2021.2.3, I need to use psychoJS._serverManager.prepareResources() instead of psychoJS.downloadResources();
The following code seems to be working in principle (for the conditions file).
psychoJS._serverManager.prepareResources([{name: conditionsFile,path: conditionsFile}]);
If I put
if(conditionsFile.exists()){
continueRoutine=false;
}
in each Frame I get:
- TypeError: conditionsFile.exists is not a function
which I assumed had worked for @Mike_Pratte:
If I try my old code for checking resources:
try {
psychoJS.serverManager.getResource(conditionsFile);
continueRoutine = false;
} catch (e) {}
I don’t give an error but it doesn’t wait either, leading to:
- Priya Tamber.xlsx is not available for use (yet), its current status is: “DOWNLOADING”
unless I give the routine enough time for it to download.
I tried checking conditionsFile.status but it remains set to “undefined” which must mean I haven’t found the correct way to check it.
How should I be checking resource status?
