copy files with npm copyfiles to another directory












0















I want that in the end of my build script, the build folder will be copy to another location, so I tried using copy-files-package -



"build": "react-scripts build && copyfiles build/*. out",


I was not able to figure out how to copy the entire build folder to another location, trying to specify the location like C:/someLocaion/build2 will result in the console showing SomeLocaion/build2.

  • creates a build folder, and nothing else.

  • Well, I ran the same script react-scripts build && copyfiles build/* out and it outputs out/build/* with the contents inside.

  • I am assuming you are using Windows. In that case the problem is with using &&. Use & instead.

    @Abrar - The && operator works perfectly ok in npm scripts for chaining tasks on Windows too. It's logic is analogous to Bash too, i.e. the command on the right will only execute if the command on the left exits successfully with a zero exit code.
