Uploading a zip file to a server

Hey guys,

 

My app will have lots of JSON files that I would like to ZIP up inside my app and then upload the zip file to a server.  Can someone please help direct me in how I can upload a zip file to a server?  I am a noob at network stuff.

 

The ZIP plugin tutorial talks about how this can be done, but doesn’t explain how: http://www.coronalabs.com/blog/2013/05/21/tutorial-using-zip-plugin/

 

Any tips/help is greatly appreciated.

I’m looking to do something similar, if you have an FTP site you can use this http://developer.coronalabs.com/code/ftp-helper

I’m having an issue zipping up multiple files though at the moment.

Cheers.

Thanks for that, I might restort to that if nothing else can be worked out.  I will attempt to zip files together in app and let you know how it goes for me.

So is your problem not being able to zip up folders from several folders?

I download a zip that has a file structure when it gets uncompressed.  I then modify JSON files that were part of the zip.  Then I want to compress it all back up in the exact same file structure.

The zip plugin documentation shows selected files to compress individually.  Anyone have any ideas of how we could zip up an entire folder that may have sub folders underneath it?
