Getting 'Collection "@nrwl/angular" cannot be resolved' when running workspace-schematic

See original GitHub issue

Current Behavior

When running npm run workspace-schematic -- {{ my-schematic-name }} the following error is appearing:

Error: Collection "@nrwl/angular" cannot be resolved.

Expected Behavior

The schematic should run through successfully.

Steps to Reproduce

I created a simple GitHub repository so you can reproduce this:

git clone git@github.com:decline/nrwl-schematics-demo.git

cd nrwl-schematics-demo && npm install

npm run workspace-schematic -- test

Then in the interactive dialog just select “ui” for example and use “foobar” as the directory name

I had the same issue, what helped me was running:

npm i @nrwl/angular
