How can I upload a folder from browser?

[JithinKS97]

Is it possible to use arkb to upload a folder to Arweave. My use case is to allow the user to select a folder that contains a static website and associated assets and deploy it to Arweave.

@JithinKS97 It's possible
That's the aim of arkb

Thanks for the reply, is it possible to do the same via browser rather than node CLI?

[fuadop]

@JithinKS97 no. arkb is a cli only.

Hey @JithinKS97 , as @fuadop mentioned. arkb is a CLI tool and Node module. It's not possible to deploy from within the browser using arkb. You can manually do deploys using https://github.com/textury/blockweave which is an Arweave JS SDK. But this requires more of a manual work for scripting yourself what you need it to do.
