How to use createParentPath as a parameter for mv ? - express.js
I'm uploading a file to an Express server using the "mv" function:
file.mv( 'directory/directory/director' , createParentPath:true ,(err) => {
if (err) {
return res.status(500).send(err);
}
});
I use the createParentPath:true argument there so that if the directory doesn't exit, it creates that! But I guess that's not the way to use the argument.
It's showing an error:
SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
How should i use this argument to create the directory if it doesn't exist ?

I'm assuming you are using the express-fileupload middleware.
The configuration option createParentPath is not meant to be passed to the mv method of a file object, but is a config option for initializing the middleware.
Example:
const express = require('express');
const fileUpload = require('express-fileupload');
const app = express();
app.use(fileUpload({
// configure middleware to create parent directories
createParentPath: true
}));
app.post('/upload', function(req, res) {
let file = req.files.sampleFile;
file.mv( 'directory/directory/director' , (err) => {
if (err) {
return res.status(500).send(err);
}
});
});
