How to stream mp3 files in python, Flask?

Question

Python

Hello! Not on my server is an mp3 file called "example.mp3". I need to organize the transfer of this file to another user by changing the name of this file to "my_name.mp3". At the same time, I would not really like to fully save the file on my server beforehand.

I tried this solution: izmailoff.github.io/web/flask-file-streaming but, unfortunately, the download of the file does not start, but only a window opens that allows this file to be played

. In short: I want to achieve that I can send the user a link, by clicking on which he could instantly download an mp3 file with the name I want (At the same time, the file is not stored on my server) I

plan to implement it using flask + python
