I have image files with read-only
attribute set in source folder. I need to copy them to destination folder in most cases several times in gulpfile.js.
I am trying to copy src-to-dest files like this:
gulp.task('copy-images', function () {
gulp.src(path_resource_images + '**/*.jpg')
.pipe(gulp.dest(path_app_images));
});
It works once when the dest folder in empty. But for all next calls I've got an exception that file is read-only
in dest folder. How can I remove file attr read-only
to make image-copy works every time I call it?
You can use gulp-chmod to handle permissions on your files.
So if you want to set your images readable
and writable
for everybody, you could go with something like:
var chmod = require('gulp-chmod');
gulp.task('copy-images', function() {
gulp.src(path_resource_images + '**/*.jpg')
.pipe(chmod(666))
.pipe(gulp.dest(path_app_images));
});
By passing options attribute. Set mode
value to specify permission for any folders that need to be created as output.
gulp.dest("destination-path-here", {"mode": "0777"})
cheers :-)
rimraf can be used to avoid issues with TFS permissions (by deleting destination files before copying files)
var rimraf = require("rimraf");
gulp.task("images_clean", function (cb) {
rimraf(imagesDest, cb);
});
