Copy or move files under extension to a new location during upgrading extension

[yonghan79]

Hi core devs,

I have a folder that contains uploaded files that was placed under extension folder (extension_name/files), and i want to move the folder and files to a new location (under image folder) during upgrading the extension.

But when i try to upgrade the extension, i found out that the folder is removed.

Is there a way to copy the file and the folder to a new location during the upgrade routine so they are not removed?

Thanks

i create an upgrade.php file and add it in the config file like this:

Code Select Expand


<upgrade>
  <trigger>upgrade.php</trigger>
</upgrade>
