I’m having a break from robotics while the weather is great. In the mean time I’ll publish any talks I have for the Technophiles Of Mainline Meetup I go to https://www.meetup.com/Retired-Technophiles-of-the-Main-Line/ . This talk is about Node-Red which is a useful tool for IOT and Home Automation projects. I’ll focus on demonstrating some use cases to give an idea how it is used, but will start with a little background on Node-Red first. 00:44 Node-Red – some basics and background 05:20 My Node-Red setup, how I installed and use node-red. 07:31 Example01: Basics - Example of a basic Node-Red flow and using the Node-Red, browser based, editor. 11:57 Example02: IOT -My hacked together IOT WifiButton to trigger flows (See link to github for the esp32 code, below). This demonstrates pressing a button on an IOT device (Based on a esp32) and processing it in Node-Red to send a message via SMS to my phone. 18:31 Example03: Home Automation - Showing how Node-Red can be used in a Home Automation use case. I press the WiFiButton and toggle a light connected to a Smart Plug. 22:35 Example04: Data Logging – I add the ability to log the time I turned the light on and off to an InfluxDb time series DB.
