Error when adding geo to region query

[nicholaai]

I've been pulling my hair out about this, so hopefully this helps someone else out haha.

When using 4.2.1, if you add a geo field to an interest by region query, you'll get an error. I downgraded to 4.1.0 like I had in my other project and the error no longer occurs and you get the expected response.

Params: keywords: ['Apple, Dell, Lenovo'], resolution: 'STATE', geo: 'US', startTime, endTime

@nicholaai i'm using 4.1.0 version. Still showing the error.

[nicholaai]

Make sure you're using exactly 4.1.0. If you have a ~ or ^ in your package.json, you may not be. Check that file and make the change then do npm install again. You can also check using npm list google-trends-api

@nicholaai Thanks for reporting this. I think I have corrected it in PR #78 - probably going to add some tests to prevent this from happening again in the future

@nicholaai Fixed in verison 4.2.2. Let me know if it's still not working for you!
