Your alternator is okay. Your battery needs to be recharged. Examine the serpentine belt for damage, and replace it if necessary.

If you have an old battery, it might have gotten so drained that it cannot be recharged again. But this is for really old batteries. And cheapo stock "maintenance" batteries like stock Nissan equipment. But other than that, no you did not damage your vehicle.

Aside...I bet you had pretty good pickup with a disconnected belt, since the engine had no accesories to turn.
