TypeError: fileChunks is not iterable (cannot read property undefined)

[KarimovMurodilla]

I have .pdf files inside target folder. I am running this command to extract files data into knowledges.json:
npx folder2knowledge C:\Users\user\OneDrive\Desktop\misc\eliza\data

But i getting such error:
Error processing directory C:\Users\karim\OneDrive\Desktop\misc\eliza\data: TypeError: fileChunks is not iterable (cannot read property undefined)

How can i fix it?

[LinuxIsCool]

Getting the same error.

[robertcedwards]

I had to make some changes in order for it to work. I'll propose a PR and see if they accept it.

[Ramitphi]

@robertcedwards would be great if you can share some info about the changes you have done to make it work

[robertcedwards]

You bet @Ramitphi
I'm going to share my raw folder2knowledge.js script here…give the changes a go and let me know.
I'll def clone and do a merge/pull request, but hopefully this can help you now. Made a few other changes to ignore .DS_Store other hidden files

thanks for the revert @robertcedwards
it did worked for me, but when I copied the character json created to add in my character.ts file it is throwing error

[robertcedwards]

I ended up using the character generator in order make the knowledge work with the character file. Definitely a workaround/not best practices.
