Need a little help from a friend...

Hi bud,
This is JUST what I need, but I get an issue with the ring.authentication call. Any ideas? (Sooorry - yes, I'm blindly following instructions as I don't normally use node...)
I am also completely new to this and have so far only installed Homebridge plugins that have required adding lines to the config.json file. It seems for doorbot, this is not how you configure the plugin?
@cjax123 Can I get an example of how you are using it?
@bjornand1 This isn't the home bridge plugin, this is a raw module to talk to a Ring doorbell. You want this project: https://github.com/homespun/homebridge-platform-ring-video-doorbell
@cjax123 Which script? ring.authenticate isn't in the newer version of the module as it's handled under the hood for you.
@cjax123 I've added a proper example using the newer API:

Hi, this is probably not the right place to post this, but I truly hope someone can help. I have homebridge running on my Synology NAS installed using Synology Package for Homebridge Docker. When I try to install the https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-platform-ring-video-doorbell plugin, I get the node-gyp rebuild error. If I try to run a terminal in the Docker package and the recommended % apt-get install libpcap-dev command, it does not work. While I know very little about terminal commands, I assume it is because the paths or something get mixed up when running homebridge this way. Could anyone shed some light on how to install this plugin properly?
@bjornand1 I have no idea on that as I've never used it. I would need to see the actual error that is being generated, it will likely tell you what packages need to be installed inside the container to allow whatever module is breaking to compile. My gut tells me it's likely avahi-devel that needs to be installed.
Thanks for offering to help, davglass! Here is the messages that appear when trying to install:

Looks like libpcap it's there:
../src/pcap_binding.cc:2:23: fatal error: pcap/pcap.h: No such file or directory
#include <pcap/pcap.h>
^
compilation terminated.
Try adding this to your container: yum install libpcap-devel
Thanks for looking into this! Like I said, terminal commands are not my expertise, but I tried this in the container, but without any luck:
Am I running the command in the right place?
What os is the container running?
Well, you ask good questions, not sure I can answer... It is this package:
Looks like it's running Alpine Linux:
https://hub.docker.com/r/oznu/homebridge/
This should work then: apk add --no-cache libpcap-devel (I've never used Apline, so I'm guessing here)
It's not working:
/homebridge # apk add --no-cache libpcap-devel
fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.8/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz
