I can't figure out how to download an image from firebase storage and save it into local filesystem within an ionic/angular based hybrid app. Basically, I'm trying to cache a profile picture so I don't have to waste firebase request any time I want to display that picture in my app.

Since ionic is a web app, the only documentation on google firebase storage help for Web Development talks about getting the download URL. I want to use that URL to put the image in the local filesystem.

I'm pretty new on this technology so maybe there is an object to manage web download and get the byte stream from an URL. But I didn't succeed by googling this problem.

Thanks in advance.
