How to use the downloadfile method? about pcloud

[tomgross]

The purpose of the downloadfile-method is to retrieve the metadata from a download (share) link. What you want probably is to download file contents, which can be achived by the file ops API (https://docs.pcloud.com/methods/fileops/index.html)

Here is a minimal example:

In [7]: pc.file_open(path='/somefile.txt', flags=api.O_CREAT)
Out[7]: {'result': 0, 'fd': 1, 'fileid': 2046546721}
In [8]: pc.file_size(fd=1)
Out[8]: {'result': 0, 'size': 238, 'offset': 0}
In [9]: pc.file_read(fd=1, count=238)
Out[9]: b'Some Content'

How do you download multiple files? Run the same code in parallel for a list of paths? Or consistently? Is there a function that expects a list of paths or a list of fileid's?
