What's the logic behind naming cached files?

[buesing]

please provide the version of installed library and RN project.

^0.10.5, React Native 0.45.1

I downloaded some files with fileCache: truebut without a path parameter. I found that in my tests, these files were saved in the DocumentDir in directories RNFetchBlob_tmp on iOS and RNFetchBlobTmp in Android. Is this dependent on the OS version or something else? Is the function I use below to clear all old cached files correct?

export function clearOldCachedFiles (files) {
  const isOldCache = fileName => fileName.startsWith('RNFetchBlob_tmp') || fileName.startsWith('RNFetchBlobTmp')
  return Promise.all(files.filter(isOldCache).map(fileName => {
    return RNFetchBlob.fs.unlink(`${directories.DocumentDir}/${fileName}`)
  }))
}

@buesing , that's a good point, perhaps we should expose the tmp folder API to the JS context.

On Android it should be

DocumentDir + '/RNFetchBlobTmp_' + someId

As for IOS

DocumentDir + `/RNFetchBlob_tmp/RNFetchBlobTmp` + someId

Sounds like a good idea to expose this. In the meantime this info works for me. Thanks!
