RISE IoT Containers

Stack is included nodered and TTN gateway, that deployed via resin.io

Node Red

Prerequisites

Setup these environment variables via Device Environment Variables or Device Service Variables on https://dashboard.resin.io

• NODE_RED_USER (required): Admin User login for Basic Authentication
• NODE_RED_PASSWORD: Encrypted password with bcrypt with compute = 8
• NODE_RED_PLAIN_PASSWORD: Plain password
• LOG_LEVEL (optinal): specific node-red log level. Default is info.

If NODE_RED_PASSWORD is not yet defined, system will generate encrypted password by NODE_RED_PLAIN_PASSWORD and print to console. Then you can copy and re-define NODE_RED_PASSWORD and remove NODE_RED_PLAIN_PASSWORD on resin dashboard. The service will be restarted and updated automatically.

If NODE_RED_USER or one of NODE_RED_PASSWORD and NODE_RED_PLAIN_PASSWORD is blank, service will crash.

Implemenation note

• Require using USB -> add user to group dialout
• To add more libraries in NodeRed, update package.json then rebuild resin image by pushing code to your git.resin.io

Note

If USB serial port does not work properly in some reason, use usb_reset library flow with USB_VENDOR_ID and USB_VENDOR_PRODUCT in environement variables.
