Please take a look at what is sent here. The first argument should be a path to the phantomjs. Is it properly installed?

I used like this

const htmlPDF = require('phantom-html-to-pdf')({ 'numberOfWorkers': 2, 'tmpDir': TEMP_DIR, 'strategy': "dedicated-process", 'phantomPath': require('phantomjs-prebuilt').path });

As per node https://www.npmjs.com/package/phantomjs is renamed to phantom-prebuilt . So i used the phantom prebuilt.

htmlPDF({ html}, ( error, pdf ) => { if ( error ) { reject({'message': Unable to create file ${fileName}, error}); } else { const { path: tmpPath } = pdf.stream;

   const fileStream = fs.createWriteStream(fileName);
   pdf.stream.pipe(fileStream);

}})

Please help me what is wrong in my code

Based on the error require('phantomjs-prebuilt').path is not producing valid path. Try to debug it.
