how to sent current directory path(Space in the path) into terminal via xcode application

Question

I have to run a script from Objective C code. my script server.js is located at the path

/Users/SS/Desktop/iPhone App/Appium.app/Contents/Resources/node_modules/appium/server.js

In objective c code, I set the path as

[self.serverTask setCurrentDirectoryPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@", @"/Users/SS/Desktop/iPhone App/Appium.app/Contents/Resources", @"node_modules/appium"]];

launch path with argument

[self.serverTask setLaunchPath:@"/bin/bash"]; [self.serverTask setArguments: [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"-l", @"-c", nodeCommandString, nil]];

The problem I am facing is that when I am running XCode application, it is receiving only the path before the space (i.e. /Users/SS/Desktop/iPhone) and through an error

/bin/bash: /Users/SS/Desktop/ab: No such file or directory

Is there is an idea by which I can access path after the spaces.

Change your path like this./

[self.serverTask setCurrentDirectoryPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@", @"/Users/SS/Desktop/iPhone\ App/Appium.app/Contents/Resources", @"node_modules/appium"]];

Add \ before the space.
