const AvatarGenerator = require('avatar-generator')
const avatar = new AvatarGenerator({
    //All settings are optional.
    parts: ['background', 'face', 'clothes', 'head', 'hair', 'eye', 'mouth'], //order in which sprites should be combined
    partsLocation: path.join(__dirname, '../img'), // path to sprites
