You need to install ImageMagick on your computer before running this.

Thanks @martlo !

Installing imagemagick fixed the issue for me on Mac OSX

1. Install with Homebrew brew install imagemagick
2. Update imagemagick symlinks if necessary brew link imagemagick --overwrite

And try again 😉

You may also need to install "ghostscript"

1. Install with Homebrew brew install ghostscript
2. Update imagemagick symlinks if necessary brew link imagemagick --overwrite
   And try again 😉

I had trouble running it with node v10.*. Worked fine with node v8.*

[wasurocks]

It's working! You need to just brew install imagemagick

I followed @piraveen 's comment and it works like a charm!

I have the problem of brew install imagemagick on windows, anyone knows the solution?

[piraveen]

@lanlee1988 brew is for Mac OSX. You can download the binaries for windows directly from Imagemagick official website => https://imagemagick.org/script/download.php#windows
