As the title says, error occurs when npm installing in a folder name that contains a space.

Here's the error leading up to it when folder name is test 1:

This is a breaking bug. Is this repo still maintained?

See what I have commented here: alibaba/pipcook#958 (comment):

Boa depends on the Miniconda3-4.7.12.1 which doesn't support installing on a folder with spaces

I tried to fix the install scripting issue in Boa itself yesterday, but found out that finally miniconda also doesn't support installation directories with spaces, so possible solutions are as follows:

1. Upgrade the Miniconda to higher version which supports folder with spaces
2. Remove the spaces from your directory

Because the first solution involves the upgrade of dependencies, it will take a long time for us to upgrade and release, so I looked at your installation directory(/home/anon/Desktop/test 1/node_modules). As for your problem, the easiest way is to modify your directory.
