I've seen many very long answers, and it's kinda a waste of memory space. Some also use packages like glob, but if you don't want to depend on any package, here's my solution.

const Path = require("path");
const FS   = require("fs");
let Files  = [];

function ThroughDirectory(Directory) {
    FS.readdirSync(Directory).forEach(File => {
        const Absolute = Path.join(Directory, File);
        if (FS.statSync(Absolute).isDirectory()) return ThroughDirectory(Absolute);
        else return Files.push(Absolute);
    });
}

ThroughDirectory("./input/directory/");

It's pretty self-explanatory. There's an input directory, and it iterates through that. If one of the items is also a directory, go through that and so on. If it's a file, add the absolute path to the array.

Hope this helped :]
