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).

Node-RED: Lecture 6 – Example 6.3 Using context to generate rolling averages
A special module called context, used to store data between function invocations, is available to function nodes. This can be useful when the function needs to retain state to do its processing. For example, in a typical Industrial IoT scenario, Continue reading “Node-RED: Lecture 6 – Example 6.3 Using context to generate rolling averages”
