fsbin - simple file system utility for npm script

Purpose

I need some quick and dirty way to delete a directory or copy a directory in npm scripts. e.g.

  "scripts": {
    "dev": "webpack-dev-server",
    "build": "fsbin emptyDir buid && webpack"
  }

Usage

npm install fsbin, then use it in your package.json.

It simply exposes fs-extra functionalities. Examples:

fsbin emptyDir <dir>
fsbin copy <srcdir> <destdir>
fsbin mkdirs build/static/styles
fsbin remove build/static

In create-mithril-app, I used the following for the build pipeline:

"scripts": {
  "build": "fsbin emptyDir build && fsbin copy public build && webpack"
}

The above script empties the build folder, then repopulates it with both static files and webpacked files.

Special Thanks

Special thanks to the fs-extra team.
