node.js - Move File in ExpressJS/NodeJS -

i'm trying move uploaded file /tmp home directory using nodejs/expressjs:

fs.rename('/tmp/xxxxx', '/home/user/xxxxx', function(err){     if (err) res.json(err);  console.log('done renaming'); }); 

but didn't work , no error encountered. when new path in /tmp, work.

im using ubuntu, home in different partition. fix?

thanks

yes, fs.rename not move file between 2 different disks/partitions. correct behaviour. fs.rename provides identical functionality rename(2) in linux.

read related issue posted here.

to want, have this:

var source = fs.createreadstream('/path/to/source'); var dest = fs.createwritestream('/path/to/dest');  source.pipe(dest); source.on('end', function() { /* copied */ }); source.on('error', function(err) { /* error */ });
