I found the perfect NPM and installed it, but when I require it, it can't find the npm. (Project 6)

So I found the perfect NPM for Project 6 simply called 'content_scraper'. Well, I installed it and if I look inside the node_modules directory, one of the subdirectories is called 'content_scraper'.

I've tried a few methods: var Scraper = require("content_scraper"); var Scraper = require("./content_scraper"); var Scraper = require("./node_modules/content_scraper");

None of these can find the npm.

I see people are using other npm's like 'node-scrapy', but I have no clue how to scrape a site. We were never taught this.
