I need to move files from /dist/src to /dist. This is currently not possible with this command: fse move /dist/src /dist, because it will warn that 'dest' already exists. If I try to do it with fse move --all /dist/src /dist nothing happens.
Describe the solution you'd like
If I don't specify the option --overwrite it should move the files in dist/src to /dist like the Unix mv command does.
Describe alternatives you've considered
writing my own custom script using the native fs module
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
src <String>
dest <String> Note: When src is a file, dest must be a file and when src is a directory, dest must be a directory.
options <Object>
overwrite <boolean>: overwrite existing file or directory, default is false.
callback <Function>
err <Error>
So no implicit selection such as wildcard "*" or none dir/file name meaning 'all'.
I don't intend to change it on @atao60/fse-cli side.
But it's not the end of the story!
it's always possible to ask it to node-fs-extra itself
your user case unearthed an issue
Without option '--overwrite':
mkdir -pv level1/level2/level3
# mkdir: created directory 'level1'
# mkdir: created directory 'level1/level2'
# mkdir: created directory 'level1/level2/level3'
touch level1/level2/level3/test{1,2,3}.txt
ls -al level1/level2/level3
# total 8
# drwxrwsr-x 2 pierre developers 4096 Jul 28 11:34 .
# drwxrwsr-x 3 pierre developers 4096 Jul 28 11:34 ..
# -rw-rw-r-- 1 pierre developers 0 Jul 28 11:34 test1.txt
# -rw-rw-r-- 1 pierre developers 0 Jul 28 11:34 test2.txt
# -rw-rw-r-- 1 pierre developers 0 Jul 28 11:34 test3.txt
npx -q @atao60/fse-cli move level1/level2/level3 level1/level2
# Moving file or directory... from 'level1/level2/level3' to 'level1/level2'.
# ERROR thrown while moving file or directory: dest already exists.
ls -al level1/leve2/level3
# ls: cannot access 'level1/leve2/level3': No such file or directory
Oops! The src dir is deleted even though not moved.
With option '--overwrite', it's even worse: both src & dest dirs are deleted...
Some digging is needed here to figure out if it's a fse-cli issue or a fs-extra one.
