How do I move files in node.js?

How can I move files (like mv command shell) on node.js? Is there any method for that or should I read a file, write to a new file and remove older file?

Solution

  • According to seppo0010 comment, I used the rename function to do that.

    http://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/fs.html#fs_fs_rename_oldpath_newpath_callback

    fs.rename(oldPath, newPath, callback)

    Added in: v0.0.2

    oldPath <String> | <Buffer>
newPath <String> | <Buffer>
callback <Function>

    Asynchronous rename(2). No arguments other than a possible exception are given to the completion callback.
