Error: Engine directory could not be created

Trying to run tinysearch on Windows 11 (with a Hugo blog):

> tinysearch.exe .\public\index.json

This is a quite incomplete error message in my opinion...

I get a very similar issue on Ubuntu 21.10 with my static site. currently the docker image does work, but installing this cli from cargo is not working.

[Ember-ruby]

I also get this same error

Can somebody try if this change fixes the problem?
#153
I don't have time to this this right now.

[mre]

I created a pull request here: #154.
If someone could test this and report back I'd be very thankful.

I have started implementing tinysearch into the abridge theme: https://github.com/Jieiku/abridge

UPDATE: building from git with master branch works without issue it seems:

sudo npm install terser -g
sudo pacman -S install wasm-pack binaryen
cd ~/.dev
git clone https://github.com/tinysearch/tinysearch
cd tinysearch
cargo build --release
cd ~/.dev/abridge
~/.dev/tinysearch/target/release/tinysearch --optimize --path static public/json/index.html

Yes, installing from the git master branch works perfectly. No issues.

[mre]

Released fix on crates.io, so no need to use the git master anymore. 🎉 Thanks for the feedback.

I just ran into this error on 0.7.0 and @Jieiku's solution of building from git with master branch continues to work.
