A plugin for Hestia Control Panel (via hestiacp-pluginable and hcpp-nodeapp) that enables hosting a Node-RED instance. With this plugin installed, a new Quick Installer option will appear. Note: User account must have SSH/bash set per NodeApp's instructions for this plugin to work. should have User accounts can host their own Node-RED instance either in the root domain or as a subfolder installation. For instance, it is possible to run WordPress in the root domain while having Node-RED installed on the same domain in a subfolder (i.e. https://example.com/nodered); a perfect setup for creating solutions using WPN.
HCPP-NodeRED requires an Ubuntu based installation of Hestia Control Panel in addition to an installation of HestiaCP-Pluginable and HCPP-NodeApp to function; please ensure that you have first installed both Pluginable and NodeApp on your Hestia Control Panel before proceeding. Switch to a root user and simply clone this project to the /usr/local/hestia/plugins folder. It should appear as a subfolder with the name nodered, i.e. /usr/local/hestia/plugins/nodered.
First, switch to root user:
sudo -s
Then simply clone the repo to your plugins folder, with the name nodered:
cd /usr/local/hestia/plugins
git clone https://github.com/virtuosoft-dev/hcpp-nodered nodered
Note: It is important that the destination plugin folder name is nodered.
Be sure to logout and login again to your Hestia Control Panel as the admin user or, as admin, visit Server (gear icon) -> Configure -> Plugins -> Save; the plugin will immediately start installing Node-RED depedencies in the background. A notification will appear under the admin user account indicating "Node-RED plugin has finished installing" when complete. This may take awhile before the options appear in Hestia. You can force manual installation via root level SSH:
sudo -s
cd /usr/local/hestia/plugins/nodered
./install
touch "/usr/local/hestia/data/hcpp/installed/nodered"
