Unable to install using NPM #30

I am finding the following issue when trying to use NPM to install your library.

pi@raspberrypi:~/.node-red $ npm i https://github.com/open-homeautomation/miflora npm ERR! addLocal Could not install /tmp/npm-3174-cbd0c9a8/git-cache-e9fd0e4fcfcf/3575b30e3b4e06d460a1088a8b96999dd328cbed npm ERR! Linux 4.4.50-v7+ npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/nodejs" "/usr/bin/npm" "i" "https://github.com/open-homeautomation/miflora" npm ERR! node v4.8.2 npm ERR! npm v2.15.11 npm ERR! code EISDIR npm ERR! errno -21 npm ERR! syscall read

npm ERR! eisdir EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read npm ERR! eisdir This is most likely not a problem with npm itself npm ERR! eisdir and is related to npm not being able to find a package.json in npm ERR! eisdir a package you are trying to install.

npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request: npm ERR! /home/pi/.node-red/npm-debug.log

I've checked the log and it seems to be a carbon copy of what is written above. I'm a bit of a noob with a lot of this so I could really do with a little help!

Please forgive me if I am pointing out an issue that is already raised or resolved elsewhere.

npm is a JavaScript package mager but this is a Python library. You can't use this with JavaScript.
