Create a file named app.py and add the following code to set up a basic Flask application:

from flask import Flask, send_file, request, jsonify
app = Flask(__name__)

# Make sure "gemini pack.bin" is in the same directory as your script for this example to work.
@app.route('/download', methods=['GET'])
def download_gemini_pack():
    filename = 'gemini pack.bin'
    try:
        return send_file(filename, as_attachment=True)
    except FileNotFoundError:
        return jsonify("message": "File not found"), 404
if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)
