NMAP not found at command location: nmap

[ameyrkale]

I am using nmap on Onion Omega 2 Linux OS, I have installed nmap globally, when I use following program

const nmap = require('node-nmap');
nmap.nmapLocation = 'nmap'; //default
let quickscan = new nmap.QuickScan('127.0.0.1 google.com');
console.log(quickscan);

it works but when I try to run NmapScan I am getting this error when I try running following program, "NMAP not found at command location: nmap"

var nmapscan = new nmap.NmapScan('127.0.0.1 google.com', '-sn');

nmapscan.on('complete',function(data){
console.log(data);
});
nmapscan.on('error', function(error){
console.log(error);
});

nmapscan.startScan();

Appreciate any help and inputs

@ameyrkale is nmap available in $PATH?

I'm having the same issue. I'm running into this error on Cloud9, my windows machine, my mac and on AWS Lambda..... LMK if you figure it out :)

@rcodina7 Linux distribution requires to have nmap, it's not anyhow related to the package.
