On this [Github page](https://github.com/gablau/node-red-contrib-blynk-iot) where I got the npm from it doesn't actually say where it just says "If you installed Node Red globally use this command to install `npm install --global node-red-contrib-blynk-iot`"

And as I'm running a RPi with DietPi I followed the advice from a post [here](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/dietpi-node-red-folder-does-not-exist/52405/4?) on the discourse, which states as above to install in `/mnt/dietpi_userdata/node-red`. which I did and there is no trace of anything having been installed.
