nodejs zip archiver issue with directory path in windows

I'm having an issue with using zip.directory in Windows.

This is the file structure I'm trying to create:

. ├── file1.txt ├── file2.txt └── file3.txt

file2.txt and file3.txt are coming from a directory called dir.

Here is the code I have on my server:

const zip = archiver('zip')

zip.append('some text', { name: 'file1.txt' })   
zip.directory('dir/', '.')
zip.finalize()

This works fine on Mac. However, using the '.' to put everything in the same directory seems to not work on Windows (basically only file1.txt makes it into the zip).

The following, however, DOES work:

const zip = archiver('zip')

zip.append('some text', { name: 'file1.txt' })   
zip.directory('dir/', 'somename')
zip.finalize()

However, this gives a folder structure like this:

. ├── file1.txt └── somename ├── file2.txt └── file3.txt

which isn't really what I'm looking for. Is there a way around this?
