  arg: 'modulname@version' // for example, npm@2 or @mic/version@latest etc
  dir: '/tmp' // package will be downlodaded to ${dir}/packageName

package description and example are wrong/outdated

NPM package description gives this usage example
`
import downloadNpmPackage from 'download-npm-package';

downloadNpmPackage({
arg: 'modulname@version' // for example, npm@2 or @mic/version@latest etc
path: '/tmp' // package will be downlodaded to ${path}/packageName
}).then()
`

There is no "path" option. It's called "dir" in the source code. Current example fails to process the package. It works okay when path is replaced with dir.

Cannot read property 'tarball' of undefined

I'm not quite sure yet why this happens, but pkg.dist is sometimes undefined here:

Instead, the returned object has a _requested member.

Protocol "https:" not supported. Expected "http:"

I tried to download antd package via download-npm-package antd, but it gave you the following error.

C:\Users\Liu.D.H>download-npm-package antd
_http_client.js:151
    throw new ERR_INVALID_PROTOCOL(protocol, expectedProtocol);
    ^
