Can't build the book: ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE

[cj1128]

I got this error when built the book:

Config file detected: magicbook.json
buffer.js:195
    throw new errors.TypeError(
    ^

I think it's caused by magicbook api change, cause magicbook is under active development.

What magicbook version did you use?

I think it's better to make magicbook a dependency in package.json rather than install it globally. Then we can all get the same version. :D

This issue is related to magicbook! It works with this version:

npm i -g magicbook@0.1.16

Thanks! It worked.
