Hi,  
I am installing Node Red on an android phone running Android 9. I have all my nodes loaded except Sqlite. I have Sqlite.zip downloaded and it is located at sdcard/download.

I am a real novice at anything \*ix and have no understanding of how to either:

1. change paths to sdcard/download to run npm install command
2. copy the sqlite.zip to the node red folder and run npm install command

I am guessing that Node Red is located at a higher level than my unrooted phone will allow.

Can anyone guide me on how to do this. Please, I am a novice in all things terminal / Linux.
