Code

function template_preprocess_file_link(&$variables) {
  $file = $variables['file'];
  $options = array();

  $file_entity = ($file instanceof File) ? $file : File::load($file->fid);
  // @todo Wrap in file_url_transform_relative(). This is currently
  // impossible. As a work-around, we currently add the 'url.site' cache context
  // to ensure different file URLs are generated for different sites in a
  // multisite setup, including HTTP and HTTPS versions of the same site.
  // Fix in https://www.drupal.org/node/2646744.
  $url = file_create_url($file_entity->getFileUri());
  $variables['#cache']['contexts'][] = 'url.site';

  $mime_type = $file->getMimeType();
  // Set options as per anchor format described at
  // http://microformats.org/wiki/file-format-examples
  $options['attributes']['type'] = $mime_type . '; length=' . $file->getSize();

  // Use the description as the link text if available.
  if (empty($variables['description'])) {
    $link_text = $file_entity->getFilename();
  }
  else {
    $link_text = $variables['description'];
    $options['attributes']['title'] = $file_entity->getFilename();
  }

  // Classes to add to the file field for icons.
  $classes = array(
    'file',
    // Add a specific class for each and every mime type.
    'file--mime-' . strtr($mime_type, array('/' => '-', '.' => '-')),
    // Add a more general class for groups of well known MIME types.
    'file--' . file_icon_class($mime_type),
  );

  // Set file classes to the options array.
  $variables['attributes'] = new Attribute($variables['attributes']);
