To work with node-red, you will want to install and follow the instructions for the node-red-contrib-s7 package. This package is where the blocks you are looking for come from, and it also installs the nodeS7 package as a dependency for PLC communication. You would not normally want to install the nodeS7 package on its own to work with node-red. The github page for that repository has some documentation that should help you as well.
