createCanvas() Creates a Canvas instance. This method works in both Node. js and Web browsers, where there is no Canvas constructor.
The node-canvas package is a NodeJS module allows you to create an image programatically. The package uses Cairo 2D graphics library so that you can generate an image in many common formats like JPG, JPEG or PNG.

Simply run:
After installing these canvas will install just fine.
