Error connecting to nodejs server cannot find node-restful

i am working on an application that save my location on database via a nodejs server. Now i am working on server side and i am using express. When i start server and type nodemon server.js in terminal it shows me some error "cannot find symbol ..."

this is my status.js 

var restful = require('node-restful');
var mongoose = restful.mongoose;

var statusSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
latitudine: String,
longitudine: String,
imei: String
 });

//return models

const User = mongoose.model('User', statusSchema);

module.exports = User;

this is my server.js 

var express = require('express');
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');


//connect to mongodb:

mongoose.connect('mongodb+srv://tudorstanciulescu:19970826@test- 
srqul.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=true&w=majority');

var app = express();
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended:true}));
app.use(bodyParser.json());


//route:

app.use('/api', require('./routes/api'));

//start server:
app.listen(1000);

console.log('serverul porneste pe port 1000');

and this is my api.js

//dependencies

var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();

//models

var Status = require('../models/status');

//routes

Status.methods(['get', 'post', 'put']);
Status.register(router, '/status');

//return router

module.exports = router;

the error i get internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:638 throw err; ^

It looks like you forgot to install node-restful npm package.

Try:

npm i -S node-restful
