# gulp-chmod

> [Change permissions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chmod) of [Vinyl](https://github.com/gulpjs/vinyl) files

## Install

```sh
npm install --save-dev gulp-chmod
```

## Usage

```js
import gulp from 'gulp';
import chmod from 'gulp-chmod';

export default () => (
gulp.src('src/app.js')
.pipe(chmod(0o755))
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist'))
);
```

or

```js
import gulp from 'gulp';
import chmod from 'gulp-chmod';

export default () => (
gulp.src('src/app.js')
.pipe(chmod({
owner: {
read: true,
write: true,
execute: true
},
group: {
execute: true
},
others: {
execute: true
}
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist'))
);
```

## API

### chmod(fileMode, directoryMode?)

#### fileMode

Type: `number | object`

Can either be a [chmod](https://ss64.com/bash/chmod.html) octal number or an object with the individual permissions specified.

Values depends on the current file, but these are the possible keys:

```js
{
owner: {
read: true,
write: true,
execute: true
},
group: {
read: true,
write: true,
execute: true
},
others: {
read: true,
write: true,
execute: true
}
}
```

When `read`, `write`, and `execute` are the same, you can simplify the object:

```js
{
read: true
}
```

Pass `undefined` to not set permissions on files. Useful if you only want to set permissions on directories.

#### directoryMode

Type: `true | number | object`

Same as `fileMode`, but applies to directories.

Specify `true` to use the same value as `fileMode`.

## Tip

Combine it with [gulp-filter](https://github.com/sindresorhus/gulp-filter) to only change permissions on a subset of the files.

```js
import gulp from 'gulp';
import chmod from 'gulp-chmod';
import gulpFilter from 'gulp-filter';

const filter = gulpFilter('src/cli.js', {restore: true});

export default = () => (
gulp.src('src/*.js')
// Filter a subset of the files
.pipe(filter)
// Make them executable
.pipe(chmod(0o755))
// Bring back the previously filtered out files
.pipe(filter.restore)
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist'))
);
```
