basic configuration: Error: url must be an URL address

hey there,

thank you very much for your work!

I got a problem with a very simple configuration:

const sellerProductUploadDirectory = path.join(__dirname, '../upload/sellerProductImage');
app.use(express.static(sellerProductUploadDirectory));
app.use(
  '/upload/sellerProductImage',
  expressSharp({
    imageAdapter: new FsAdapter(sellerProductUploadDirectory),
  })
);

When trying to access the page i get the following for some images and not all:

node_1      | GET /upload/sellerProductImage/I8bKvIgxn-_default-product.jpg.jpg 400 30.998 ms - 261
node_1      | Error: url must be an URL address
node_1      |     at /backend/node_modules/express-sharp/src/middleware/validator.middleware.ts:21:14

This url seems to be fine: http://localhost:8080/upload/sellerProductImage/FrGn0UIUI-fernando-meloni-va6b5ag3Jvo-unsplash.jpg.jpg

This url is not working: http://localhost:8080/upload/sellerProductImage/i6va5p7dE-1060-536x354-blur_2.jpg.jpg

When i remove the middleware, both images work without a problem.

Any help would be appreciated!

It turned out that the validation library used in the background caused the problems. I replaced it by now with another mechanism.

The problem is now fixed in v4.2.12.

The problem is fixed with https://github.com/pmb0/express-sharp/commit/be9fbeb52b745a11572472b30518c7ac522e7515. A release will follow shortly.
