I need to chance the function node code as my old service is now subscription. now going use " https://weerlive.nl/api/weerlive_api_v2.php?key=demo&locatie=Amsterdam" wget get that,no problem. I like to store this data so i can reuse it to test my code and not spam that server.
What is the best way to do that ?
You can visit that URL in your browser - this is Firefox:
Use the Copy option at the top and paste into a Node-red template.
Make sure the output type is Parsed JSON
Now you can use an inject node to trigger the template
You can also use a http request node to grab the data, then use a debug node to view/copy the data. This data can then be saved in a inject node using the JSON type input. Or you can save the data to a context variable for later access in your test flows.
There’s a great page in the docs (Working with messages : Node-RED) that will explain how to use the debug panel to find the right path/value for any data item.
Pay particular attention to the part about the buttons that appear under your mouse pointer when you over hover a debug message property in the sidebar.
Thanks will try the injection node. Because was going to try dashboard 2 and need a other guide how to use template 2 first
Or i go back to dashboard,that worked for me.
- I did not suggest a dashboard template, for either v1 or v2.
- The copy from debug will work as long as msg.payload is not too large. Anything beyond 1000 characters (?) is not shown by debug.
