Ansible, npm and the -save-dev flag

Question

I am trying to use the karma for jenkins available to provide testing servers using the karma-phantomjs-launcher plugin. I hope to avoid using shellscripts of the format "exec npm install".

The problem is that the phantomjs plugin requires a flag --save-devthat will be used during installation. I am looking to use a flag --save-devfrom npm, but the nsnnnnnnnnnnb module has no way to pass these flags to the actual npm command that it runs.

Is this possible, or am I just resorting to using the control module to run npm install karma-phantomjs-launcher --save-dev?
