var fs = require('recur-fs');

fs.indir('/some/directory', '/some/directory/file.js');
// Gather all files ending in '.js'
fs.readdir('/some/directory', /\.js$/, null, function(err, files, directories) {
  // Do something with 'files'
});
// Gather all files not ending in '.css'
fs.readdir('/some/directory', null, /\.css$/, function(err, files, directories) {
  // Do something with 'files'
});
// Make a directory and any missing parents (mkdir -p)
fs.mkdir('/some/directory', function(err) {
  // Do something
});
// Move a file to a new destination, calling mkdir if necessary
fs.mv('/some/file', '/some/destination', function(err, newfilepath) {
  // Do something with 'newfilepath'
});
// Copy a file to a new location (cp -r)
fs.cp('/some/file', '/some/destination', function(err, newfilepath) {
  // Do something with 'newfilepath'
});
// Copy the contents of a directory to a new location
// (note trailing slash)
fs.cp('/some/directory/contents/', '/some/destination', function(err, newdestination) {
  // Do something with 'newdestination'
});
// Delete a directory and all subdirectories (rm -rF)
fs.rm('/some/directory/and/children', function(err) {
  // Do something when complete
});
