Time to Payback/Contribute - Euromap63 support

Developing Nodes
1

Looking for Euromap63 - File based Industrial Protocol - support for talking to machines. I could not find any from the node library.

Have been using node-red for sometime now, looks like it's time to payback/contribute.

Can someone point me to the resource/document that explains how to go about creating nodes that could be part of the contrib(ution).
This Euromap 63 is a file request-response base protocol - if there are already protocols/nodes I can learn from those and extend them.

TIA for any pointers/refs.

Hi, great to see someone new looking to contribute to the community.

The documentation has decent coverage of the basics: Creating Nodes : Node-RED

It is also a good idea to check out the source code for a node that might do something vaguely similar.

There are plenty of us on the forum who are generally happy to chip in with help and guidance.

Personally, I developed a slightly different structure for developing nodes which I find more logical and easier to understand the logic of how nodes are run (in about 3 main stages for the runtime). I have a testbed repo on GitHub that illustrates the ideas: GitHub - TotallyInformation/Node-RED-Testbed: A blank canvas to test out ideas for Node-RED custom nodes.
