I have folders with files inside them in my main bundle, and I want to copy/cut them to the Documents Directory at first launch of the application to access them from there. I've seen examples but they're all in Obj-C and I'm using Swift 3. How can I do this?
I managed to do it using 2 functions:
func copyFolders() {
let filemgr = FileManager.default
filemgr.delegate = self
let dirPaths = filemgr.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask)
let docsURL = dirPaths[0]
let folderPath = Bundle.main.resourceURL!.appendingPathComponent("Test").path
let docsFolder = docsURL.appendingPathComponent("Test").path
copyFiles(pathFromBundle: folderPath, pathDestDocs: docsFolder)
}
func copyFiles(pathFromBundle : String, pathDestDocs: String) {
let fileManagerIs = FileManager.default
fileManagerIs.delegate = self
do {
let filelist = try fileManagerIs.contentsOfDirectory(atPath: pathFromBundle)
try? fileManagerIs.copyItem(atPath: pathFromBundle, toPath: pathDestDocs)
for filename in filelist {
try? fileManagerIs.copyItem(atPath: "\(pathFromBundle)/\(filename)", toPath: "\(pathDestDocs)/\(filename)")
}
} catch {
print("\nError\n")
}
}
