Documentation

fileslice.copy(String file, String output, Object range, Function callback)

Copy a slice of file to output.

The slice is determined by the range object which contains two fields:

• start is the number of bytes determining where to start copying from.
• end is the number of bytes determining where to stop copying.

The callback received a single argument: (error).

The function is implemented using streams, so you can copy big file slices without worrying about memory.

Example:

var fileslice = require('fileslice');
 
fileslice.copy('input/file', 'output/file', {
    start: 512,
    end: 2048
}, function(error) {
    if(error) throw error;
    console.log('The slice of the file was copied.');
});
