download files from url in php laravel

I'm using php version 7.3 and laravel 5.4

I've a controller function fetchUrls which returns a json response containing urls data

public function fetchUrls($id) {
     $urlData = $this->service->fetchUrls($id);
  
     return $this->done(null, [
        'url_data' => $urlData
    ]);
}

Using this controller function in my routes

Route::get('url-data/{id}', 'Url\UrlDataApiController@fetchUrls');

When I hit this api

http://localhost:8000/api/url-data/{1}

The response looks like

{
    "urlData": [
       {
           "id": 1,
           "url" "https://example1.com/file"
       },
       {
           "id": 1,
           "url": "https://example2.com/file"
       }
    ]
 }

Is there any way instead of getting response, can we download the file from url using iteration? or redirect to urls present in the response?

You can use the below code to download the file from URL

return response()->streamDownload(function () {
                echo file_get_contents('https://www.pakainfo.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/image-url-for-testing.jpg');
            }, 'image-url-for-testing.jpg');

You can use Laravel download response.

https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/responses#file-downloads

$headers = [
          'Content-Type' => 'application/pdf',
       ];
return response()->download($file, 'filename.pdf', $headers);

base on Laravel version, maybe you should use:

$file= public_path(). "/download/info.pdf";

$headers = array(
          'Content-Type: application/pdf',
        );

return Response::download($file, 'filename.pdf', $headers);
