ipfs.add only accepts single items to add to IPFS. globSource returns multiple items which is why you're seeing an error, though granted the error message could be more descriptive.

Please change the invocation to:

const file = await ipfs.addAll(globSource('./docs', { recursive: true }))

Also note the globSource API changed in the ipfs-http-client@53.x.x release so now it would be:

const file = await ipfs.addAll(globSource('.', 'docs/**/*'))

// or if you prefer:

const file = await ipfs.addAll(globSource('./docs', '**/*'), {
  wrapWithDirectory: true
})
