npm WARN mitesh No description
npm WARN mitesh No repository field.
npm WARN mitesh No README data

Looks like you do not have a package.json in your project or it is probably not rightly placed. Here is what you can do;

Browse to your project directory and run this command;

npm init

This should create a package.json file in your project directory

Then run,

npm install udev --save

--save will ensure your module is saved as a dependency in your package.json file.

you could just try to run the last command without the --save but in some cases it helps

Here is a link to further assist: npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\Users\Nuwanst\package.json'

Try this let me know if it helps.
