@sinch/node-red-sinch-utility

A package containing an enhanced HTTP In node for Node-RED, compatible with the other Node-RED's http nodes. This node enables to configure the inbound url to be dynamicly set based on a subflow environment variable or a global/flow context variable.

Example urls

1. Environment variable passed from subflow: /{{env.some-variable}}
2. Variable from global context: /{{global.some-variable}}
3. Variable from flow context: /{{flow.some-variable}}

Installation

The first step is to install Node-RED.

$ sudo npm install -g node-red

Compatible with Node-Red version 3.x.x and later

The second step is to install the package. You can either install it directly using the Palette Manager. Instructions can be found here: Node-RED.

Or install manually using npm:

Navigate to the Node-RED installation and install the package:

$ cd ~/.node-red
$ npm install @sinch/node-red-sinch-utility

Run Node-RED locally:

$ node-red

This will start a server for Node-RED on http://127.0.0.1:1880/.

If the installation of the node package was successful, the Sinch Utility nodes should be available in the node palette to the left, under the category "Sinch Utility".
