   @talfstad I know this is an old one, but in case anyone else has any issue with this, you can install archiver (tested with archiver@2.1.1) directly and use following snippet (also wrapped in promise so you can deal with it as such):

     /**
      * Wrap "archiver" package to create ZIP of the `sourceDir` and write it to `destinationFile`
      *
      * @param sourceDir
      * @param destinationFile
      * @returns {Promise<void>}
      */
     async createArchive(sourceDir, destinationFile) {
       return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
         // create a file to stream archive data to.
         const output = fs.createWriteStream(destinationFile);
         const archive = archiver("zip", {
           zlib: { level: 9 } // Sets the compression level.
         });
   
         // listen for all archive data to be written
         // 'close' event is fired only when a file descriptor is involved
         output.on("close", function () {
           resolve("Archiving done");
         });
   
         // This event is fired when the data source is drained no matter what was the data source.
         // It is not part of this library but rather from the NodeJS Stream API.
         // @see: https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_event_end
         output.on("end", function () {
           logger.info(`Data has been drained to archive for ${sourceDir}`);
         });
   
         // As per archvier docs - good practice to catch warnings (ie stat failures and other non-blocking errors)
         archive.on("warning", function (err) {
           if (err.code === "ENOENT") {
             // logger.warn(err);
           } else {
             // throw error
             reject(err);
           }
         });
   
         // As per archvier docs - good practice to catch this error explicitly
         archive.on("error", function (err) {
           throw err;
         });
   
         // Pipe archive data to the file
         archive.pipe(output);
   
         // Archive `sourceDir` to "node" dir in archive
         archive.directory(sourceDir, "node");
   
         archive.finalize();
       });
     }
