@vtj / node / copySync

Function: copySync()

copySync(src, dest, options?): void

Copy a file or directory. The directory can have contents.

Parameters

• src: string

Note that if src is a directory it will copy everything inside of this directory, not the entire directory itself (see issue #537).

• dest: string

Note that if src is a file, dest cannot be a directory (see issue #323).

• options?: CopyOptionsSync

Returns

void

Example

import * as fs from 'fs-extra'

// copy file
fs.copySync('/tmp/myfile', '/tmp/mynewfile')

// copy directory, even if it has subdirectories or files
fs.copySync('/tmp/mydir', '/tmp/mynewdir')

// Using filter function
fs.copySync('/tmp/mydir', '/tmp/mynewdir', {
  filter(src, dest) {
    // your logic here
    // it will be copied if return true
  }
})
