How to set file name in response

I know about content-disposition but I read what it uses for email messages. And I want to know how I can set file name with content-type. ps I use Pyramid framework

edit: Web site has button 'download' how to perform Response object for file name too, like

return Response(body=f.read(), content_type='application/octet-stream')

and what I need to do for showing correct file name in browser.

Solution

  • You need to set the filename parameter of the Content-Disposition header like so:

    response.content_disposition = 'attachment; filename="my_filename.txt"'
