Core FlexDash Widgets for Node-RED
This repository builds a core set of Node-RED nodes corresponding to the core FlexDash widgets, i.e. the ones built into FlexDash.
It also contains a set of example flows to get started and see FlexDash in action.
Read the quick-start docs for info on how to get started.
TL;DR:
- install @flexdash/node-red-fd-corewidgets
- import the 'Hello World' example flow from its examples using the Node-RED import menu
- deploy and point your browser at http://localhost:1880/flexdash (or similar)
- import the 'all-widgets' example, deploy, and see the 'rocket' tab in FlexDash
This repository itself does not contain any widgets or any nodes, the way it works is as follows:
- the FlexDash source is downloaded and the widgets in
https://github.com/tve/flexdash/tree/v0.3/src/widgets are copied into
./widgets - the @flexdash/node-red-fd-flexdash
NPM module is installed (
npm install) - the node code generator from node-red-fd-flexdash is run to generate the nodes
- the set of generated nodes are published to NPM
The widget generation and publishing to npm happens as part of the github
workflow in .github/workflows/build.yml.
For help, please read the FlexDash Docs and check the Node-RED forum.
