Installation

FlowFuse's Node-RED Dashboard 2.0 is available in the Node-RED Palette Manager. To install it:

• Open the menu in the top-right of Node-RED
• Click "Manage Palette"
• Switch to the "Install" tab
• Search node-red-dashboard
• Install the @flowfuse/node-red-dashboard package (not node-red-dashboard)

The nodes will then be available in your editor for you to get started.

If you want to use npm to install your nodes, you can instead follow these instructions

Note: this package was previously published under the name @flowforge/node-red-dashboard. That package has now been deprecated and will not receive any further updates.

If you would like to run this set of nodes locally, and specifically to help contribute to the development efforts, you can read the Contributing documentation.

Dashboard Planning Repository

Welcome to the Node-RED Dashboard 2.0 repository. This repository is currently under construction, but we are working diligently to bring you a modern, interactive data visualization and dashboard solution for Node-RED.

Motivation

The Node-RED Dashboard has served us well for many years, providing an intuitive way to create live dashboards for Node-RED flows. However, the original Dashboard is based on Angular v1, which is no longer actively maintained. We identified the need for a secure, updated, and innovative successor. Hence, we are embarking on this journey.

Solution

The new Node-RED Dashboard will be published as a separate package. It will carry the legacy forward, adapting to future needs while keeping the essence of open-source and community-driven development intact. The project will be licensed under Apache 2.0.

Community and Contribution

We strongly believe in the power of community. If you have suggestions, feedback, or features you'd like to see, please open a Github issue. We also highly encourage open-source contributions. We aim to create a robust tool through community collaboration.

Join Us

We're looking for a freelancer to assist in the development of the first version of the new dashboard. This 2-3 month project offers an opportunity to shape the future of data visualization and Node-RED. Interested? Contact us.

Vision

We are excited about the potential of this project. The journey is filled with challenges, but with the support of the community and a dedicated team, we're confident in creating a tool that surpasses its predecessor.

Join us on this journey as we redefine the future of data visualization with the new Node-RED Dashboard.
