clonefile

Functions

cloneAvailable()

function cloneAvailable(): boolean

Defined in: tar/src/clonefile.ts:106

True where cloneDir can work: macOS, on a Node whose node:ffi loads. Being built in is not enough: the permission model without --allow-ffi denies it. Loads it, once.

Returns

boolean

cloneDir()

function cloneDir(src, dst): string | true

Defined in: tar/src/clonefile.ts:115

Clone the directory src to dst, which must not exist, with clonefile(2). Returns true, or the errno code of the failure: ENOTSUP where cloning is unavailable (not macOS, no node:ffi, a filesystem without clones), EXDEV across volumes, ENOENT for a missing source, and so on.

Parameters

Returns

string | true
