Property 'forRoot' does not exist on type 'typeof MatomoModule'

I faced the issue when I installed the ngx-module and tried to import this one.

The reason is simple: you read the README on Github which already speaks about the new release which is not yet published as the latest release on NPM (it is still a release candidate).

Since you are using Angular 9, I'd suggest you go with version 1.0.0-rc.0 (https://www.npmjs.com/package/ngx-matomo/v/1.0.0-rc.0) which supports this platform.

Don't bother to use 0.1.4 since it is now mostly outdated for new Angular applications.
