Getting started with Node-RED
Node-RED is a drag-and-drop visual tool which comes pre-installed on Raspbian. In this
resource we will use Node-RED to control LEDs via the Raspberry Pi's GPIO pins.
The emergency departments in Region Östergötland use pen and paper to a large extent when recording emergency care procedures and measurements. During treatment the patient should be the main focus. Because of this, recording of measurements done could be delayed or in worst case forgotten during stressful situations.
The internet does not have a one-size-fits-all solution
•Every new “thing” has a new API that must be understood
•Solutions often require pulling together several different device API’s and online services in new and interesting ways
A Node.js based web service on your platform of interest (e.g. the Pi) Presents a website with a graphical user interface to control data flow between modules
Modules are based on Javascript can comprise all I/O and processing steps NodeRED comes with a large library of complementary modules, e.g. for hardware communication (the Pi’s GPIO), interaction with social media and visualisation frame works.
The purpose of this project aims to design and implement a smart home device that can be deployed into residential and office settings to control temperature and humidity to a desired level. At the same time this helps us to make better use of energy and improve the well-being of the residents.
IoT developers need to integrate a variety of protocols, backend components and services; they often need to pre and post-process data as well as react to changes in the real world. Data flow
programming tools have been introduced in a number of related domains to provide a flexible, but easy to use visual programming environment for rapid development. The open source Node-RED system provides such a tool for IoT applications, but is limited to executing a single flow file in a single thread. In this paper we describe the design of our system called the Front-End for Node-RED (FRED) that manages multiple instances of Node-RED for logged in users, allowing Node-RED to be used as a cloud-hosted data flow mashup tool for the IoT. We present some examples of how some of our 1800+ users are using FRED for IoT mashups, and some of the challenged we faced in implementing the FRED system.
IBM Brings Bluemix to Developers!
This document has been prepared for the TMForum Hackathon in Nice, France. The first section of this document shares Bluemix related notes, and it is followed by notes appropriate for viewing content from exposed APIs (provided by TMForum and FIware) then you see the node flows that are available for you.
