Node fs copy a folder

Question

I am trying to copy a folder using Node fs module. I am familiar with readFileSync() and writeFileSync() methods but I am wondering what method I should use to copy a specified folder?

Answer 1

You can use fs-extra to copy contents of one folder to another like this

var fs = require("fs-extra");

fs.copy('/path/to/source', '/path/to/destination', function (err) {
  if (err) return console.error(err)
  console.log('success!')
});

There's also a synchronous version.
