node-red-contrib-arduino-iot-cloud

This module implements node-red nodes for interacting with Arduino IoT Cloud. Multi Arduino Accounts are allowed.

Installation

Install node-red-contrib-arduino-iot-cloud with:

npm install @arduino/node-red-contrib-arduino-iot-cloud

into your $HOME/.node-red directory or via node-red palette manager

Configuration

1. Obtain Client ID and Client Secret from the things webpage by clicking on Add API
2. Go to NodeRED web page
3. Select one Arduino node from the pallete and drag to a flow
4. Double click on the node
   • set a new connection
     • select 'Add new arduino-connection...' in the field 'Connection'
     • Click edit (Pencil button)
     • Insert a connection name, Client ID and Client Secret (collected at point 1)
     • Click Add
   • Select a thing
   • Select a Property
   • Set a name
5. Connect Arduino property input node to other nodes to consume data coming from a thing property.
6. Send a payload to the Arduino property output node to change the value of a thing property.

Nodes

property (In)

This node injects in the flow the changed value of a specific Arduino IoT Cloud property.

property (Out)

This node update a specific Arduino IoT Cloud property with the value received in input

historic

This node injects in the flow a set of values of an Arduino IoT Cloud Property based on the node configuration. Node parameter:

• Time Filter: defines time range for historical values

periodic

This node injects in the flow the value of an Arduino IoT Cloud Property with a periodicity based on the node configuration. Node parameter:

• Poll Every: defines polling time interval (seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks)

inject

This node injects in the flow the value of an Arduino IoT Cloud Property after receiving an input event.
