create folders script

In server folder, we need to create some subfolders where the videos will be uploaded and processed.

@foyzulkarim vai, we already have an uploads folder inside server folder. Do we still need to create other sub-folders for uploaded and processed videos ? if yes, how do you want them ?

The thing is, the folders are manually created on a fresh machine. I was thinking to use zx to create the folders. Jist fancy ways to do stuffs. 😅

Example command: npm run init-directories

I am happy to hear more suggestions.

oh, i remember that i had to create uploads folder manually before running the project. Without these folders, system will break. We can create(if them are not already created) these folder/sub-folders automatically after running npm run start. This way we never have to think about those folder, neither our system will break from not creating them.

It is not a good idea to mix different things into single place. We don't need to check every time coz it is a part of setup process, similar as mongodb connection url thing. You can do it as you see fit, we can discuss or refactor later. 🙂

sorry for the multiple commit messages. :(

You can try using zx library. you can do conditional shell scripting using javascript by using this library.
