Path contains invalid characters error

[arphox]

Hi!

Since You did not mention which node.js version to install, I used "12.13.0". However the script crashed early:

e:\e-library\_allitebooks_\allitebooks-downloader-master>npm start

> allitebooks-downloader@1.0.0 start e:\e-library\_allitebooks_\allitebooks-downloader-master
> node main.js

Can you help me with this issue? (I also tried earler LTS versions of node.js, did not work)

I am using the argv[2] to read the current path of the script and use that as a download path. It seems that that does not work in your setting, since the prepended download path is undefined in your error message

Error: Path contains invalid characters: undefined/http:/www.allitebooks.org/software-engineering-from-scratch/

The error message you posted also looks like you are using Windows. Maybe argv[2] works different on WIndows. I have so far only used this on macOS.

But feel free to debug into this and hand in a pull request!
