Error on simple code

[aabb11sdio]

Hey!

I keep getting this error: Uncaught (in promise) NodeError: The "file" argument must be of type string. Received type object

When running this code:

nightmare .goto('https://google.com') .evaluate(() => { return document.body.innerHTML }).then(body => { console.log(body) });

I can't seem to find anyone having this problem.

hello，I run your code. I got the result is string

[kobenguyent]

it's working fine for me as well.

I had this exact error.

The issue for me was happening when trying to run nightmare within an electron app. Are you using nightmare inside of electron @aabb11sdio?

I solved the issue by including the electronPath property:

const nightmare = Nightmare({ electronPath: require('./node_modules/electron'), show: true, });

I don't understand why though, so if anyone could help explain why an electronPath is needed, that would be highly appreciated.

Thanks jcugley. Wasted a lot of time searching for this solution. Still do not know why it needs the path though
