How to build Snap including multiple directories and files in Snapcraft.yaml

Is there a example in https://github.com/snapcrafters that would show how to add multiple directories and files as part of the snapcraft build?

I have an entire directory tree that would need to be packaged up. There is 6 top level directories with subdirectories and files. I am wanting to create a Snap app out of a binary application. The main reason for this is because I don't have the source code for a 3rd party application.

I thought I could include the directories by adding them in the "stage:" array, but I am getting errors.

parts:
  app1manual:
    # See 'snapcraft plugins'
    plugin: dump
    source: .
    stage: [app1]

apps:
  app1manual:
    command: app1
    plugs:
     - network
     - network-bind
     - system-observe
     - mount-observe
     - network-control

How could I add these directories and specify it in the snapcraft.yaml file?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
