Hi Guys I installed node-red dashboard from gitHub and the specifics nodes from node-red-dashboards is not appearing in the node-red framework.
install procedure: sudo npm Install node-red/node-rede-dashboard
all those files were included in the node-modules.
Somebody have an idea whats is happening?
Best Regards,
Alex
You may need to restart node red and/or reload the page in the browser.
You should not really use sudo - and that path will install the development version - not the release version. You also need to be in your node-red directory - usually ~/.node-red - so:
cd ~/.node-red
npm i node-red-dashboard
then restart Node-RED - should be all you need.
Or use the Manage Palette option in the menu to install it.
But you may need to clean up your existing install.
Also you don't mention which version of nodejs you are currently using.
Hi Myplacedk and Dceejay I did it before. I have use "sudo" to install and restart node-red. But I uninstall and install again, and restar node-rede, using the establish version as Dceejay advise me. You can see the commands below:
But the dashboard nodes still not appearing In the node-red palette.
pi@raspberrypi:~ cd .node-red/
pi@raspberrypi:~/.node-red sudo npm i node-red-dashboard
node-red-dashboard@2.11.0 node_modules/node-red-dashboard
├── serve-static@1.13.2 (escape-html@1.0.3, encodeurl@1.0.2, parseurl@1.3.2, send@0.16.2)

pi@raspberrypi:~/.node-red $ sudo node-red restart
They have another idea?
Assuming you're on a normal install on the Pi, that isn't how you restart Node-RED.
You should run:
node-red-stop
node-red-start
Hi Guys, I stoped node-red and see that the node-red portal is not stoping. My node red running well. I have a project running well, but I don't know whats happening w/ node-red-dashboard.
I did it a few times and see the same behavior. I see during star and stop a few errors as you see below:

Hi Guys, in additional my recently post I did those commands and get success to stop node-red portal and nothing have changed. I didn't see dashboard nodes in the node-red portal.
udo systemctl stop nodered
udo systemctl start nodered
Somebody have an idea to fix it?
Best Regards
Alex
You may have a version of NR already running which would cause this message.
From the command line run 'top -u pi' and see if node-red shows in the list (type 'q' to quit out of top'
Hi guys, sorry for my mistake. I forgot to include "-" after node-red in the command. Now can stop and start node-red (sudo node-red-stop / node-red-start). I have only one stance working. But I still didn't see node-red-dashboard nodes in the portal.
I still trying to fix it.
Best Regards
Alex
When you use node-red-start that starts node red with the systemd service file so it doesn't make any difference whether you use sudo or not. Post the log here that you see after running node-red-start. You can copy from the terminal using Ctrl-Shift-C. Also note that by using sudo to install nodes locally you will have created files with root permissions in your home folder, which will likely give you problems at some point.
Hi Colin, I can´t find find an explanation for the problem. I already installed another tool and I didn't have the same problem!
I understood your concern about install node using root permission with sudo.
As you see bellow all those files and folders have the same owner!
Do you have another idea how to fix it?
tks
Alex

Do a ls -al to show the hidden files too
You haven't posted the log I asked for.
Hi Colin, sorry i dindt see your request. Would you see below the node-red-log:
Hi zenofmud, Would you see the "ls -al" result below:
I did stop and start to include it in the log.

thanks guys!!

That is the wrong folder, your local modules are stored in the .node-red folder so you want
cd ~/.node-red
ls -al
cd ~/.node-red/node_modules
ls -al
Which explains why they are not appearing, as you were not in the .node-red directory when you installed them.
The easiest way to install them is to use the "Manage Palette" option within Node-RED
Hi Ukmoose.
The dashboard nodes in the node read web application is not avaialable. I seen only default nodes and HID Usb that i recently installed.
best Regards,
Alex
Hi Guys,
I uninstalled node-red-dashboard via shell, that i installed before, and trying to install it node-red "Manage Palette. But i get error during install procedure, as they can see in the PIC attached.
Please dio this
stop node-red - from a terminal type node-red-stop
go to the node-red directory cd $HOME/.node-red/node_modules
remove the dashboard if it exists rm node-red-dashboard -rf
change back to the .node-red directory cd $HOME/.node-red
install the dashboard npm install node-red-dashboard
restart node-red node-red-start
check to see if the dashboard nodes exist.
Now, what was that I said earlier about getting access problems at some point due to using sudo to install nodes locally?
cd ~/.node-red
sudo chown -R pi:pi .
Don't miss the dot on the end. That should set everything in that folder back to being owned by pi as it should be.
