This functionality is available from version 2.1.0-gradius onwards.
Introducción
In this release the “Palette Manager” has been enabled in the FlowEngine.
This allows every user to customize their own palette, installing new nodes from NPM repositories.
IMPORTANT: Platform is not responsible for any nodes installed by the users and grants no support for them. In addition this nodes could affect the stability and performance of the FlowEngine, so it should be used with caution
To do so, you simply have to click Node-RED’s menu and select “Palette Manager” option
The Palette Manager has two tabs:
Nodes: lists the modules that are currently installed in the runtime
Install: lists the available modules that can be installed
Managing nodes
Each entry in the Nodes list shows the name and version of the module along with a list of the individual node types the module provides.
Options are provided to remove, disable or upgrade each module.
Important: If a node is currently in use within the flow, it cannot be removed or disabled.
Installing nodes
The Install tab can be used to search for available modules and install them.
To search for a module, enter its name in the search bar. The search results show the details of the modules, including when it was last updated and a link to its documentation. It can be installed by clicking the ‘install’ button.
