Interaction with filesystem

[teddy-mindcompass]

Hello everyone,

I want to know if it's possible for fflate to interact with the file system api ? The goal is too zip files and directories directly from the file system.

Thanks

Sure, the Filesystem API gives you FileSystemFileEntrys for each file you access. On each of those, you can call file() to get a File object, which can then be converted to a Uint8Array or a ReadableStream for use with fflate.

There's a tutorial on building a simple ZIP creator in the wiki, you should be able to adapt it to work with the Filesystem API pretty easily, but let me know if you need more help.
