July 26, 20169 yr Author A quick way to install node-red-dashboard ..... 1. Stop the container 2. Delete node-red-contrib-ui from appdata/nodered/node-modules directory (your data directory) 3. Start Node Red 4. Use Admin tab to add node-red-dashboard This installs the latest v2 dashboard (Make sure you follow the steps above) Tony
August 10, 20169 yr Hi, sorry to hijack this thread, but this seems to be the right group of people following here. If this evolves into anything, I move it. I am looking to build a dashboard for my "home" and am hoping to include things like - Power Consumption that I can get using Node-Red - Temperature, Weather (NodeRed or Wether station once I get one) - Current Downloads (Deluge) - Current Streams (Plex) - CPU load (maybe from my netdata docker) - Network load (maybe from my netdata docker) I was wondering if anyone has tried this and how would I get the data from deluge and plex? I like the simplicity of Node-Red and can probably figure out how to send it to dashing. The Node-Red dashboard is a good start, but it just does not look as nice as I would like. Any hints, tips? Thanks
August 21, 20169 yr Hello, i've been trying to get the pihole beta to run but i'm not having any luck. I've followed the config instructions but to no avail. This is what is output from the log: Aug 21 11:49:11 Fileserver php: /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker 'start' 'pihole-for-unRaid' Aug 21 11:49:11 Fileserver kernel: device vethc33dc02 entered promiscuous mode Aug 21 11:49:11 Fileserver kernel: docker0: port 8(vethc33dc02) entered forwarding state Aug 21 11:49:11 Fileserver kernel: docker0: port 8(vethc33dc02) entered forwarding state Aug 21 11:49:11 Fileserver kernel: docker0: port 8(vethc33dc02) entered disabled state Aug 21 11:49:11 Fileserver avahi-daemon[2548]: Withdrawing workstation service for vethad963a9.

August 21, 20169 yr Author Hi - thanks for trying it out. Please can you use this topic: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=50453.msg486072#msg486072 You will need to get the log from the docker itself = the notepad icon on the line of the docker (I think your log is from the main unraid log?)
September 15, 20169 yr Author Just updated my custom NodeRed docker to v0.14.6 and added the template for the official NodeRed 0.14.6 docker image...... At the end of September - there will be some great announcements for NodeRed..... stay tuned!

September 15, 20169 yr Author Some nice Node Red enhancements (maybe!) .... Hopefully I wont have to build mine anymore..
September 15, 20169 yr Hmm.. was this discussed in the group? I've been neglecting my reading there due to time constraints so i must have missed it. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
September 15, 20169 yr Author not AFAIK. I was chatting with Dave CJ and Nick O'Leary at Thingmonk in London (we work for the same company....)
October 12, 20169 yr Author New Node Red v0.15 is out :- http://nodered.org/blog/2016/10/11/version-0-15-released The NodeRed-officialdocker template will pull 0.15 (force if not showing update available). As this includes the function to add nodes to the palette, my version my become redundant :-). Please check your flows and see if you can add any dependancies using the officialdocker version that I created a template for and let me know! (note that in appdata directory for my version, I use "flow" in the file names. The official docker uses "flows" ..... rename the files... Use a test copy not your live copy for the migration testing. )
October 14, 20169 yr Author Will this work with a Sonos API? Abolutely - serach for "node red sonos" - there are a few nodes out there
October 14, 20169 yr Do I have to use node-red nodes or can I use this one https://github.com/jishi/node-sonos-http-api
October 14, 20169 yr Author Do I have to use node-red nodes or can I use this one https://github.com/jishi/node-sonos-http-api unfortunately that is a straight Node.js app. It will need a wrapper to pull it into NodeRed
October 14, 20169 yr OK so node-red is proprietary for the nodes that it runs. I ask because I am trying to integrate my Sonos into my Smartthings Home Automation. The smartapp that they have for it doesn't work well and it seems that using http commands through a node server would solve a lot of the issues. I thought since I have an Unraid server setup, that I could utilize it for this. Would this work?

I thought since I have an Unraid server setup, that I could utilize it for this. Would this work? To use that app you would either need to install a Node.js container and install it in there or build a wrapper for the gui part of node red... Might be worth pinging the author and see if he has seen Node Red?
October 24, 20169 yr I've just set up Node-RED docker to serve HTTPS. Took me a while to do something that should be quick so I've put together the steps; http://mediaserver8.blogspot.ie/2016/10/unraid-node-red-docker-with-https.html Hopefully it will help someone, sometime.
October 24, 20169 yr Thanks for the writeup.... I used the nginx letsencrypt docker to do this... Let me know if you need any help Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
October 26, 20169 yr Thanks. Got it working with Apache and proxy pass. Turns out I don't need to ssl node-red at all as Apache can look after certs for all proxies services. Loving node-red though, thanks for the docker.
October 30, 20169 yr Is there something up with the node-red docker not retaining installed nodes on update/restart? I had installed a few new non-standard nodes but following a few updates and restarts, they are now gone from the sidebar. I may have changed mapped ports a couple of times as well which I find causes things to disappear in some dockers. I also changed the admin URL from / to / admin. Just wondering if there's a known issue before I embark on some testing....
October 30, 20169 yr Quick update. I saw a Docker update waiting so decided to try. Here's what I see; -Installed some new nodes using npm install node-red-contrib-alexa -Restarted Node-Red Docker -Saw the new functions on the left in admin -Stopped Node-Red Docker -Applied Update -Restarted Node-Red Docker -The new node functions were gone. I suspect that these are being installed to the docker itself and the update process refreshes this? Should I be installing these nodes to my config directory? (navigate to config and then run the install command?) Thanks Peter
October 31, 20169 yr You must install new nodes with the new palette editor in 0.15 of the admin tab in 0.14. It's normal that the nodes dissapear when i stalling manually via command line. Changes made in any docker container that are not mapped to a drive in your unraid (appdata) share are never persistent.! Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

October 31, 20169 yr How do I upgrade the image to the latest version of node-red? I have tried to use force update but still on 14.6.
October 31, 20169 yr The old node-red image is deprecated i think. You should install the nodered-official image. Your appdata folder van stay the same. Just the flow file you should rename to flows. Just do a backup beforehand! The official image is current 0.15.2 Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
