How to install files recursively while maintaining the directory structure?

Question

Qt

Hello.
There is a Qt project in which there are a number of html, js and css files with their own directory structure. I would like to copy them to the directory with the executable file along with the directory structure at the installation stage. The documentation for installing arbitrary files suggests using a construction of the form:

Product {
    ...
    Group {
        name: "web_files"
        files: "path_to_my_folder/**"
        qbs.install: true
        qbs.installDir: "public_html"
    }
    ...
}

However, in this case, the system copies all files from all subdirectories of the path_to_my_folder directory to public_html without saving the structure.
Now for each directory I define a group in which I prescribe the destination directory, but the project grows and it starts to strain. Can you tell me how to copy the directory tree in one fell swoop?
Thank you.
