Directory Methods

allContents

Get an array listing of all files and directories in a directory using recursion.

/**
 * @directory The directory
 * @filter    A string wildcard or a lambda/closure that receives the file path and should return true to include it in the returned array or not.
 * @sort      Columns by which to sort. e.g. Directory, Size DESC, DateLastModified.
 * @type      Filter the result to only include files, directories, or both. ('file|files', 'dir|directory', 'all'). Default is 'all'
 * @absolute  Local provider only: We return relative disk paths by default. If true, we return absolute paths
 *
 * @throws cbfs.DirectoryNotFoundException
 */

copyDirectory

Copies a directory to a destination. The 'filter' argument can be a closure and lambda with the format function(path ).

/**
 * @source      The source directory
 * @destination The destination directory
 * @recurse     If true, copies all subdirectories, otherwise only files in the source directory. Default is false.
