npm install files-from-path
import { filesFromPaths } from 'files-from-path'
// Given a file system like:
// path/to/file.txt
// path/to/dir/a.pdf
// path/to/dir/images/cat.gif
const files = await filesFromPaths(['path/to/file.txt', 'path/to/dir'])
console.log(files)
// Output:
// [
// { name: 'file.txt', stream: [Function: stream] },
// { name: 'dir/b.pdf', stream: [Function: stream] },
// { name: 'dir/images/cat.gif', stream: [Function: stream] },
// ]
// Note: common sub-path ("path/to/") is removed.
