Programming the IoT
While we don’t have enough space here to cover JavaScript completely, here is a quick overview for those familiar with other programming languages to get started writing your own nodes. To experiment with JavaScript, you can use the JavaScript console supplied with your favourite browser or startup Continue reading “JavaScript primer”
This tutorial will show you how to make use of an SQLite database using the litedb node on the FRED hosted Node-RED platform to create database tables and store data. Under the hood, the litedb node uses SQLite. As a very lightweight relational database, SQLite does not need complex setup procedures, making it an ideal database management system to use for embedded systems and rapid prototyping. Continue reading “Tutorial: SQLite and Node-RED”
As you’ve seen in previous lectures, Node-RED uses a visual flow-based programming paradigm[1]. This is not unique to Node-RED. Similar approaches have been used in many other domains such as music and multimedia (Max MSP), toys (Lego Mindstorms), enterprise application integration and industrial automation (LabVIEW).
