title: Installing Angular with Ansible npm package
body: <p>I would like to use <a href="https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/npm_module.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Ansible's npm module</a> to install angular.
  I here is the ansible task I have:</p>
  
  <pre><code>- name: Install npm rpm
    yum:
      name: "{{packages}}"
    vars:
      packages:
      - npm
  
  - name: "Install Angular version {{ angular_version }}."
    npm:
      name: angular-cli
      version: "{{ angular_version }}"
      path: "{{ fe_deploy_dir }}/{{ fe_repo_basename }}"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried setting <code>name</code> to <code>angular</code> and <code>angular/cli</code> and I get the error:</p>
