NodeJS fs.readdir for network share or file: protocol

I am working on a project that requires reading directory content from a network share.

Is there a way to use fs.readdir() on a network share? I tried:

a) inputting in the share location directly

\\000.00.00.00\Example\Images

b) mounting the share as a drive and using the drive location

Z:\Images

In both cases, fs was unable to find the directory.

Alternatively, are they any modules that can read directory contents using the file: protocol? I tried: request, needle, and SMB2 with no success.
