Node RED and Twitter Bootstrap Dashboard

[Matteo Pratosmart]

Hi everybody

anyone can suggest me a method to use node red to animate a dashboard realized in twitter bootstrap like this?

Is there a node to send data to a web page like this?

Thanks!

Hi Matteo,

the typical use the WebSocket nodes for this sort of interaction.

The WebSocket node creates a server-side listener that your webpage can connect back to. You can then push data from a flow to your page very easily.

There are some examples of this sort of thing in the flow library: http://flows.nodered.org/tag/websocket

Hello Matteo

It doesn't answer your question, but we've used Freeboard hosted by Node Express for a dashboard.

You can use them to host your dashboard or host it yourself.

It is super easy to set up - we used a websocket in Node-RED to pass the data as Nick outlined.

There was a gist posted on this list a while ago that showed howto setup a websocket input for Freeboard. We also customised it to give us another larger text widget - the widgets are quite well constructed and easy to extend.

You can see the dashboard here: http://incredibleaquagdn.no-ip.info/?load=dashboard.json

Kind regards

Hi

yes my original post was here  https://dcjblog.mybluemix.net/how-to-use-the-freeboard-dashboard-with-node-red/

though it is based on a (now) older version of Freeboard so not sure how well it still works... Certainly the websocket plugin is ok... just some of the line numbers etc may have changed.

Gareth - nice dashboard... loads of data !

Nice Idea: Freeboard.

I’ll try! thanks for the moment!

Glad it was a useful suggestion - and thanks to Dave C-J for both the original gist and the pointer that it's been updated.

I'm having a look at the new version now.

If you are able it would be great if you could share your work - I'm sure there is loads more freeboard could do I haven't thought of so being able to see your work could help me and others.

There is an editable version of the dashboard here: http://incredibleaquagdn.no-ip.info/?load=dashboardedit.json

You can try customising the dashboard freely - it might be a good way to get an idea of the possibilities.

Kind regards

Gareth
