I would like to move an entire folder including its subfolder to another folder using google script. I found this sample script on http://ctrlq.org/. However, the getfiles() method seems to limit to files under that folder. How can I solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

function moveFiles(source_folder, dest_folder) {
  
  var files = source_folder.getFiles();
 
  while (files.hasNext()) {
 
    var file = file.next();
    dest_folder.addFile(file);
    source_folder.removeFile(file);
 
  }
}

there is no need to move files inside a folder that is being moved. when you move a folder, the files and folders inside will move with it.

Get the files of root folder and again get all the subfolder then add up the list of files in root folder and its sub folders. 

while (folders.hasNext()) {

var childfolder = folders.next();

var files = childfolder.getFiles();

while (files.hasNext())
