dest-dir option

[blond]

Example:

Need create artifact with project sources and write tarball next to the project directory.

project/
    sources/
project.tar.gz

Now we should use dest param in artifact info:

const tartifacts = require('tartifacts');

const artifacts = [
    {
        dest: '../project.tar.gz',
        patterns: [
            'sources/**',
            '!sources/exlib/**'
        ],
        tar: true,
        gzip: { level: 1 }
    }
];

tartifacts(artifacts, { root: 'path/to/project' });

Because of this, you can't describe config with artifacts in project. And you can't configure dest path using config.

Need add dest option to tartifacts and name parameter in artifact info:

const tartifacts = require('tartifacts');

const artifacts = [
    {
        name: 'project.tar.gz',
        patterns: [
            'sources/**',
            '!sources/exlib/**'
        ],
        tar: true,
        gzip: { level: 1 }
    }
];

tartifacts(artifacts, {
    root: 'path/to/project',
    destDir: path.join('path/to/project', '..')
});

It's better to name it --dest-dir/destDir. Maybe also name → filename

Yep it's better, update description.

Maybe also name → filename

No, artifact name can be is directory.
