How to use in a Elixir Mix Project Locally with out -g option ?

[blackode]

I am trying to use puppeteer-pdf locally in a mix project.

I installed locally by running npm install puppeteer-pdf.

This created a folder node_modules and inside it has two folders named puppeteer and puppeteer-pdf with some dependencies.

In my config.ex, I configured the executable path to node_modules/puppeteer-pdf

config :puppeteer_pdf, exec_path: Path.join(File.cwd!(), "node_modules/puppeteer-pdf")

After compiling, I tried to check version and generate a file from string like in the following way

iex> PuppeteerPdf.get_exec_version()
""
iex> PuppeteerPdf.Generate.from_string "hello pdf", "pdfs/hello.pdf"
{:ok, ""}

I am not getting any errors nor pdf's generated.

Am I missing Something here?

BTW, I resolved by updating config with following LOC in config.ex

config :puppeteer_pdf, 
  exec_path: Path.join(File.cwd!(), "node_modules/.bin/puppeteer-pdf")
