Error: EISDIR illegal operation on a directory, open '{path to a dir in the zip file}'

[Somesh-bsai]

Hi Folks,

I am facing this issue of illegal operation when I am trying to unzip a zip file which has multiple directories in it using decompress module.

Is it something related to the permissions of the particular zip file?

Sample Code:

var unzipFiles = async function (dirPath, dcmfolder) {
const files = fs.readdirSync(dirPath);
await Promise.all(
files.map(async (file) => {
const fullFilePath = path.join(dirPath, "/", file);
if (file.endsWith(".zip")) {
console.log("Inside unzip if condition");
await decompress(fullFilePath, dcmfolder);
}
})
);
};

Can confirm - nested folder structure seems to break Node. I fear, like many (un)zip packages on npm - this one only supports unzipping all files inside a .zip.

I have the same issue when trying to decompress a zip that doesnt have files inside it.

This is the same issue as described in #46 and a workaround described in there.
