jimbotel/vtjbot-nodered-docker repository overview

Images for Linux x86-64 (ARCH=amd64)

v4 = v3 + Move from Node-RED v1.0.2 to v1.0.3 + longer expiration time for the self-signed certificate (-days 730)

v5 = based on Node-RED v2.0.6 (Node.js version: v12.13.0)

v6 = based on Node-RED v2.2.2 (Node.js version v14.18.2 )

v7 = based on Node-RED v2.2.2 (Node.js version: v14.18.2) / Sample TJBot flows removed (to give students the chance to build them themselves)

Note: "latest" tag points to the latest amd64 build (currently to v7)

Images for Raspberry pi (ARCH=arm32v7):

v3rpi3 = based on v3 but compiled for raspberry pi (ARCH=arm32v7)

v4rpi3 = v3rpi3 + Move from Node-RED v1.0.2 to v1.0.3

v5rpi3 = v4rpi3 + just adds longer expiration time for the self-signed certificate (-days 730)

v6rpi3 = based on Node-RED v2.0.6 (Node.js version: v12.22.7)

v7rpi = based on Node-RED v2.2.2 (Node.js version: v14.18.2) / Sample TJBot flows removed (to give students the chance to build them themselves)

To run a container:

• Example on an Intel/AMD machine:

   docker run -d -p 7881:1880 --name vtjbot07m01 jimbotel/vtjbot-nodered-docker:v7 
  

  Copy

• Example on a raspberry pi:

   docker run -d -p 7881:1880 --name vtjbot07m01 jimbotel/vtjbot-nodered-docker:v7rpi
  

  Copy

Notes:

• I have arbitrarily defined 7881 as the external port the container will be listening on, you can pickup the one you like most. In this case, Node-RED can be accessed from a web browser in: https://your-host-ip-address:7881⁠
• Same comment for the container name
• In this "docker run" examples I'm not defining any mount volume binded so flow changes can be lost if not saved/exported when you redeploy or upgrade the container. If you want to define a bind mount volume, you can run it as:

       docker run -d -p 7881:1880 -v node_red_data:/data --name vtjbot07m01 jimbotel/vtjbot-nodered-docker:v7 

       -v node_red_data:/data --> mount the host node_red_data directory to the container /data directory so any changes made to flows are persisted
