Helper for managing src and dest file paths
npm install src-dest
Helper utility for managing src and dest file paths. File instances contain an array of src file paths and a single dest file path; all paths are full paths.
> This is a trimmed down version of Grunt files.
``
$ npm install --save src-dest
` javascript
import File from 'src-dest';
const file = new File('index.js');
console.log(file.src);
// $ ['/fullpath/index.js']
`
` javascript
import File from 'src-dest';
const file = new File('*.js');
console.log(file.src);
// $ ['/fullpath/index1.js', '/fullpath/index2.js']
`
` javascript
import File from 'src-dest';
const file = new File(['./index.js', 'file.js']);
console.log(file.src);
// $ ['/fullpath/index.js', '/fullpath/file.js']
`
and dest using globs` javascript
import File from 'src-dest';
const file = new File({
src: ['*/.js', { content: 'console.log("hello world")', path: "/test" }],
dest: './ouput.js'
});
console.log(file.src);
// $ ['/fullpath/input1.js', '/fullpath/subpath/input2.js']
console.log(file.dest);
// $ /fullpath/output.js

Constructor to create file instances. A file instance contains an src property which is an array of full file paths. And a dest property which is also a full file path created when a dest is configured.
- options { string | string[] | { src: string[], dest: string } } - Options can be a string or an array of strings. These strings are configured as the src file paths. Options can alternatively be an object with src and dest.options.src
- { string | string[] | object | object[] } - When input is a string or array of string, they are processed as globs. Otherwise, data is stored as is.options.dest
- { string } - Destination file path.options.resolve
- { boolean } - Flag to disable glob resolution.cwd
- { string } - Current working directory to resolve src files relative to. It's also used for creating the dest file path. If one isn't provided then process.cwd() is used.
> src file paths can be globs and are resolved relative to process.cwd() or cwd if that is provided. dest files are always resolved relative to process.cwd().
Method to configure src file paths.
- src { string | string[] | object | object[] } - Source data to be configured in the file instance. These can strings, which are processed as globs. Otherwise, data is stored as is.
Method to configure dest file path.
- dest` { string } Destination path to be configured in the file instance.
Static helper method to create a list of file instances from a list of file options. Options are just an array of configurations used to build a list of File instances.
