When installing the Onvif nodes, there are some warnings:

npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142
npm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported

Problem is that the request NPM library has been abandonned by its maintainer ... The Node-RED core project is suffering from the same issue, but there is no solution yet ... I could use another library, since I only use it to fetch snapshot images (via http) from the IP camera. But I'm tempting to wait a bit longer to see which library the Node-RED team is going to use, because I would like to have a single way of working in all my nodes (e.g. for different kind of authentication methods...).
