Current Behavior

Filesystem.readdir does not output the files within the folder given (it gives an empty array)

When dirpath is "" / not a dir does it give an array with 49 objects where the "langs" dir is listed

The folder structure:

• ROOT/
  • DATA/
    • langs/
      • en.json
      • da.json
      • de.json

Here is my function

const importLanguages = async () => {
    try {
      const dirpath = "langs";
      const languageFiles = await Filesystem.readdir({
        path: dirpath,
        directory: Directory.Data,
      });

      console.log(languageFiles);

      const loadedLanguages: { [key: string]: string } = {};

      for (const file of languageFiles.files) {
        const filePath = file.uri;
        const fileContent = await Filesystem.readFile({
          path: filePath,
          directory: Directory.Data,
        });
        const langModule = JSON.parse(fileContent.data as string);
        const langCode = file.name.match(/(\w+)\.json$/)?.[1];
        if (langCode) {
          if (langModule.lang) {
            loadedLanguages[langCode] = langModule.lang;
          } else {
            loadedLanguages[langCode] =
              t("pages.settings.general.lang_missing_key") ||
              "Lang key missing";
          }
        }
      }

      const sortedLanguages = Object.fromEntries(
        Object.entries(loadedLanguages).sort(([, a], [, b]) => {
          if (a === "English") return -1;
          if (b === "English") return 1;
          return a.localeCompare(b);
        })
      );

      setLanguages(sortedLanguages);
    } catch (err) {
      console.error("Error reading language files", err);
    }
  };

Expected Behavior

It should / is expected to list out the en.json, da.json and de.json files within the langs dir, they're in there and it can find the langs dir

Project Reproduction

It's a private repository, so i can't share a link really
