Critical Error: cannot process multiple files at once

[Zirafnik]

Because transforming PDFs into PNGs (and then further PNG processing) is computationally expensive I do it inside Node.js worker_threads, so they do not block the main thread execution.

When I try launching two threads, each processing its own PDF file the following error is thrown, which kills the thread process:

Error: Module did not self-register: '/home/user/backend/node_modules/canvas/build/Release/canvas.node'.

Note: rm -r node_modules then npm install did not resolve the issue

Update: I found out that the issue lies with the canvas dependency, which still does not support worker_threads: Automattic/node-canvas#1394

@GreenFlag31 Yeah, I know. You should checkout the original "node-canvas" issue.

Also, your library adds no new functionality and is just a fork of this one?
