Answer 1

None of those are errors - they are warnings that you don't have a package.json file in place. But the install of the module has succeeded.

However, you should have run it in the directory /home/pi/.node-red in order for Node-RED to find the module. Alternatively, you could have used the palette manager from within the Node-RED editor itself to install the module.
