Point.RED | NodeJS Server

Requirements before installation

  1. You already setup point project (https://github.com/point-red/point) in your machine
  2. The point project database is already available

Installation

  1. Install NVM (Node Version Manager)

    using curl to download and install NVM

    curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash

    this script will add new config for nvm to your profile file

    export NVM_DIR="$([ -z "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME-}" ] && printf %s "${HOME}/.nvm" || printf %s "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/nvm")"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm

    install node for specific version

    nvm install 14.19.0

    use the installed node

    nvm use 14.19.0

    you can check the node version using this command

    node -v

  2. Install yarn

    npm install -g yarn

  3. Install redis

    updating your local apt package cache:

    sudo apt update

    install redis

    sudo apt install redis-server

    Inside the file, find the supervised directive. This directive allows you to declare an init system to manage Redis as a service, providing you with more control over its operation. The supervised directive is set to no by default. Since you are running Ubuntu, which uses the systemd init system, change this to systemd:

    . . .

# If you run Redis from upstart or systemd, Redis can interact with your
# supervision tree. Options:
#   supervised no      - no supervision interaction
#   supervised upstart - signal upstart by putting Redis into SIGSTOP mode
#   supervised systemd - signal systemd by writing READY=1 to $NOTIFY_SOCKET
#   supervised auto    - detect upstart or systemd method based on
#                        UPSTART_JOB or NOTIFY_SOCKET environment variables
# Note: these supervision methods only signal "process is ready."
#       They do not enable continuous liveness pings back to your supervisor.
supervised systemd

. . .

    Then, restart the Redis service to reflect the changes you made to the configuration file:

    sudo systemctl restart redis.service

    you can check the redis status by using this command

    sudo systemctl status redis

  4. Clone point-node project from github

    using ssh

    git clone git@github.com:point-red/point-node.git

  5. Install project dependencies

    go to project directory

    cd point-node

    make sure you use installed node version

    nvm use 14.19.0

    install the dependecies

    yarn install

  6. Create .env file

    create .env file by copy .env.example

    cp .env.example .env

    complete the .env file variable

  7. Try to run the test

    yarn run test

    NB: you can check at the package.json file to see commands that available on this project

  8. If test runs well, now you can run the project on your machine

    yarn run dev

  9. Congratulation, now you can work with point-node project 🚀🚀🚀
