Initial folder structure not restored in destination folder

[johannchopin]

Hey 👋 First thanks for the effort put in this project 👍

I have a project structure that looks like this:

project
│
└───node_modules
│   └───module
│       └───public
│           └───dist
│               │ styles.css
│           │ index.html
│   
└───src

And I want to copy the public folder from node_modules/module/public into the src/public folder. So I run this command:

$ yarn cpy ./node_modules/module/public ./src/public

It works but the final src/public folder contains all the files but not the initial folder structure:

# just the files
│   
└───src
    └───public
        │ styles.css
        │ index.html

# expected folder structure
│   
└───src
    └───public
        └───dist
            │ styles.css
        │ index.html

And if I run it with the --parents I got this structure:

public
│
└───node_modules
│   └───module
│       └───public
│           └───dist
│               │ styles.css
│           │ index.html

Has someone an idea how I could get the expected folder structure?

Thanks in advance 😄

I think sindresorhus/cpy#77 will resolve your issue.

Is the following expected because sindresorhus/cpy#77 has been merged?

cpy node_modules/shiki/{dist,languages,themes} public/shiki --parents

This is now fixed in cpy, so someone just needs to bring the updates here. https://github.com/sindresorhus/cpy/releases/tag/v9.0.0
