Directory structure not maintained during copy

[thetutlage]

You can find source code for reproduction here. https://github.com/thetutlage/cpy-issue-reproduction

I expect cpy to maintain the folder structure of the source when copying files to destination.

Source directory structure

resources
└── views
    ├── app.edge
    └── nested
        └── baz.edge

Code to copy the files

await copyFiles(['resources/views/**/*.edge'], join(BASE_PATH, './build'), {
	cwd: BASE_PATH,
})

Expected output

build
└── resources
	└── views
    	├── app.edge
    	└── nested
        	└── baz.edge

Actual output

build
├── app.edge
└── nested
    └── baz.edge

Okay, it seems my issue is similar to this. #105

Seems I've just ran into the same issue and I managed to solve it by using a relative path for the destination. Hope it'll work for your case as well.

@editedredx Can you share an example of the code that works for you?

[editedredx]

Sure, my failing code looked like this:

cpy(
  [
    appPath
  ],
  path.resolve('dist')
);

The change is just a relative destination path:

cpy(
  [
    appPath
  ],
  'dist'
);

EDIT: Removed the no longer needed options.

I checked where it went wrong in the installed cpy and it seems to be in the preprocessDestinationPath function where it just appends the file name to the destination. https://github.com/sindresorhus/cpy/blob/main/index.js#L96

if (path.isAbsolute(destination)) {
  return path.join(destination, entry.name);
}

FYI, I think I found a breaking change in how CWD is handled (default process.cwd() vs. options.cwd) from cp-file/cpy v9 -> v10, which affects cpy-cli v4 -> v5:

I can confirm this issue after upgrading from 8.1.2 to 9.0.1.

Before:
await cpy(['./src/**/*.js'], './dist', { parents: true });

dist
└── src
    └── foo.js
    └── bar
        └── baz.js

After:
await cpy(['./src/**/*.js'], './dist');

dist
└── foo.js
└── bar
    └── baz.js
