Hello. I am trying install and run NODE RED via [portainer.io](http://portainer.io). I have a PLC and the web interface for this PLC has [portainer.io](http://portainer.io) pre-installed in it. I would like to request for some help on how I can install NODE-RED via [portainer.io](http://portainer.io)

This is the procedure I've followed.

- Create a dedicated folder for persistent data.

```auto
$
mkdir -p /home/<USER>/Docker/Node-RED

```

- Install Node-RED

```auto
$
docker run -it -p 1880:1880 -v /home/<USER>/Docker/Node-RED:/data --network iot --name Node-RED nodered/node-red

```

- Create the internal network.

```auto
$
docker network create iot

```

- Install Mosquitto

```auto
$
docker run -itd --network iot --name MQTT eclipse-mosquitto mosquitto -c /mosquitto-no-auth.conf

```

Use the add container functionality in Portainer. Use nodered/node-red as the image and use the 'map additional volume' options on the volume tab while doing so. You will want to have '/data' mapped to a volume so your data is persisted.
