Do not download if wget::fetch { redownload => false }

[miroslavhruz]

Add option to not download if some other condition is true..
for example downloaded file is zip (or zip of zip) which contains directory which if is unzipped fetching it again from internet is nonsense.

Add possibility to force download/ not download by redownload variable or another? variable from other test than destination exists.

Is it reasonable for you?

Thanks

should be working now using the parameter source_hash

if i take the topic of this issue source_hash doesn't fix the problem. for using source_hash i have to know the md5 hash (which means i have to get it manually one time).
in my case i want to download the blocklist https://lists.blocklist.de/lists/all.txt one time if it does not exist. after that i would update it via cron. the first call to wget only ensures that the file is there and the blocklist is not empty.
this means compared to exec that a creates parameter would be awesome see https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/latest/reference/type.html#exec-attribute-creates

found a solution, just commenting here if someone else stumble upon this issue, unless is the magic key.

wget::fetch { $url:
  destination => $file,
  unless      => "test -f ${file}"
}
