Copy folder recursively in Node.js

Question

Is there an easier way to copy a folder and all its content without manually doing a sequence of fs.readir, fs.readfile, fs.writefile

Mallikarjun M, thank you!

fs-extra did the thing and it can even return a Promise if you do not provide a callback! :)

const path = require('path')
const fs = require('fs-extra')

let source = path.resolve( __dirname, 'folderA')
let destination = path.resolve( __dirname, 'folderB')

fs.copy(source, destination)
  .then(() => console.log('Copy completed!'))
  .catch( err => {
    console.log('An error occurred while copying the folder.')
    return console.error(err)
  })
