Fix "Error spawn ENOENT" when package using "pkg"

[lupohan44]

When using "pkg" to package it into binary file, we will get "Error spawn ENOENT" like vercel/pkg#342

This commit copy 7zip to a temperary folder and execute the 7zip from there to avoid this issue

Thank you for PR @lupohan44

I've never used vercel/pkg. But this fix looks like a workaround. Is there a way to copy 7zip to the temp folder only if it is pkg? Otherwise, use the current implementation?

[lupohan44]

This sounds like a good idea, I will look into it.

Hi @lupohan44
Thank you for the updates. Meanwhile reading the issue you have mentioned I noticed this comment vercel/pkg#342 (comment)

As I understand you can't use fs.copyFileSync too. But have to read assets into memory then write them into disk .
Did you test your code with pkg?

[lupohan44]

Yes, I noticed that comment too, but I can actually use fs.copyFileSync in pkg (as I tested). I guess that was a glitch and has been fixed.

I see. Interesting. Will try to check my own.
For now, I opened issue #57 for that error.
Thank you for your contributions @lupohan44
