Hello Anand,

Thank you for creating and maintaining this library.

Tried using it today and I received the following error

Thanks for opening this issue, @srirangan! I just tested this locally and got no errors. Can you perhaps try using Node v14 and tell me if you still face this issue? That might point me in the right direction.

[sri-rang]

Thanks for the quick response. Works for me on v14.13.0.

Just close your terminal and start the process again it should work.

@chandniKkpl works like a charm!

@srirangan in another application in a galaxy far far away, I discovered you'll get this error message when you're executing node process from a directory that no longer exists - i.e. another process deleted your current working directory and then you executed node from the directory that's gone.

That's why closing your terminal and reopening it "fixes" the issue, you could also probably change your current working directory and the issue will "go away".

Thanks for the clarity on this @SenorAgosto

Thanks for the clarity on this @SenorAgosto

FYI, for that other project, the source of the issue was a common node dependency.

I opened an issue.

I didn't look to see if that's the problem here or not.

My node version is v12.18.4 LTS branch.

I stumbled upon this problem today, not using this repository script but trying to install with npm install, for the future generation, if this error occurs, make sure you are in the correct directory where package.json exists. Thanks!
