dont reinvent the wheel, if you are on *nix the ls tool can easily do this (node api docs)

var options = {
  cwd: process.cwd(),
}
require('child_process')
.exec('ls -1 *.csv', options, function(err, stdout, stderr){
  if(err){ console.log(stderr); throw err };
  // remove any trailing newline, otherwise last element will be "":
  stdout = stdout.replace(/\n$/, '');
  var files = stdout.split('\n');
});
