This module doesn't support array uploads and other fancy stuff. For heavy duty uploads, you'll probably have to work with [fs.readdir](https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_readdir_path_options_callback) and [forEach](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/forEach) methods ; in that case you may also be interested in [path](https://nodejs.org/api/path.html#path_path).

```
Then you can require this file elsewhere, and use something like `path.join(myDirpath, "subfolder", "subsubfolder")` to dig into directories programmatically. Once you're there you can `fs.readdir` and iterate `forEach` file of that directory, then do whatever you want.
That is just a simple example, see `fs` documentation and Stack Overflow for more inspiration.
