# move(src, dest, [options, callback]) Moves a file or directory, even across devices. - `src` `` - `dest` `` - `options` `` - `overwrite` ``: overwrite existing file or directory, default is `false`. - `callback` `` ## 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.move(srcpath, dstpath, err => { if (err) return console.error(err) console.log('success!') }) // With Promises: fs.move(srcpath, dstpath) .then(() => { console.log('success!') }) .catch(err => { console.error(err) }) // With async/await: async function example (src, dest) { try { await fs.move(srcpath, dstpath) console.log('success!') } catch (err) { console.error(err) } } example(srcpath, dstpath) ``` **Using `overwrite` option** ```js const fs = require('fs-extra') fs.move('/tmp/somedir', '/tmp/may/already/existed/somedir', { overwrite: true }, err => { if (err) return console.error(err) console.log('success!') }) ```
