Flowforge LocalFS Driver

This will start/stop/monitor Node-RED instances and build separate useDirs for each instance

Configure

The following environment variables (in the .env file) configure this driver

• CONTAINER_DRIVER=localfs
• LOCALFS_ROOT=<path/to/store/project/userDirs>
• LOCALFS_START_PORT=7880
• LOCALFS_NODE_PATH=<path/to/node/binary> (not required, but useful with nvm)

Node-RED Versions for Stacks

To install copies of different versions of Node-RED for use by Project Stacks do the following:

Assuming you wish to install Node-RED v2.2.2

• In the var directory create a directory called stacks
• In the var/stacks directory create a directory called 2.2.2
• in the var/stacks/2.2.2 directory run npm install --prefix . node-red@2.2.2

In the FlowForge Admin settings create a Stack with the Node-RED version 2.2.2
