Npm install "no such file or directory" ... /package.json "for custom modules

Question

I have several folders, symbolically linked to node_modules, to be able to have importthem as modules. For example, I have a directory src/client/apps/adminthat is symbolically linked to node_modules/@admin. But npm gives me these warnings when I try to install or remove any modules

$ npm i -S connect-roles
...

npm WARN ENOENT ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/Admin/Code/www/learn/src/client/apps/admin/assets/package.json'
npm WARN ENOENT ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/Admin/Code/www/learn/src/client/apps/admin/components/package.json'
npm WARN ENOENT ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/Admin/Code/www/learn/src/client/apps/admin/reducers/package.json'
npm WARN ENOENT ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/Admin/Code/www/learn/src/client/apps/admin/package.json'

Of course, I can simply add package.jsonto each such folder, but I do not want to. There must be another better way to do this. There is?

PS: npm v3.5.3
