|  | # ensureSymlink(srcpath, dstpath, [type, callback])
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Ensures that the symlink exists. If the directory structure does not exist, it is created. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | - `srcpath` `<String>` | ||
|  | - `dstpath` `<String>` | ||
|  | - `type` `<String>` | ||
|  | - `callback` `<Function>` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Example:
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | const fs = require('fs-extra') | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | const srcpath = '/tmp/file.txt' | ||
|  | const dstpath = '/tmp/this/path/does/not/exist/file.txt' | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | // With a callback: | ||
|  | fs.ensureSymlink(srcpath, dstpath, err => { | ||
|  |   console.log(err) // => null | ||
|  |   // symlink has now been created, including the directory it is to be placed in | ||
|  | }) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | // With Promises: | ||
|  | fs.ensureSymlink(srcpath, dstpath) | ||
|  | .then(() => { | ||
|  |   console.log('success!') | ||
|  | }) | ||
|  | .catch(err => { | ||
|  |   console.error(err) | ||
|  | }) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | // With async/await: | ||
|  | async function example (src, dest) { | ||
|  |   try { | ||
|  |     await fs.ensureSymlink(src, dest) | ||
|  |     console.log('success!') | ||
|  |   } catch (err) { | ||
|  |     console.error(err) | ||
|  |   } | ||
|  | } | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | example(srcpath, dstpath) | ||
|  | ``` |
