Question: Is this role still maintained / recommended?

I'm investigating the possibility of using this role to install node, but I can't tell if it's still a good way to proceed. There are a lot of really old open issues referencing problems installing now-old versions of node. Is this flexible enough to install current (8.x / 10.x) versions of node, or should I be looking elsewhere? The README only specifies version 4.6 as the highest version supported... Doesn't seem promising. Is there a better way to install node using ansible these days?

I've just tried tweeting at @chrislea who made the most recent commit in this repo https://twitter.com/elfpavlik/status/1014280666429587457 I also consider using this role in some playbooks

It also seems to no longer work with current versions of Ansible (i.e. 2.9.5). This is what I get:

TASK [nodesource.node : Install GPG] ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [apu-lcgw-01]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "value of state must be one of: absent, build-dep, fixed, latest, present, got: installed"}
