Examples

Retrieve Download with ID 4

This snippet retrieves download with ID 4. Notice that the retrieve_single call is wrapped in a try-catch block. This is because the retrieve_single method throws an exception if no Download with given ID is found.

try {
	$download = download_monitor()->service( 'download_repository' )->retrieve_single( 4 );
} catch ( Exception $exception ) {
	// no download with ID 4 found
}
