INSTALLING NODERED WITH DOCKER COMPOSE ON DEBIAN11

Install NodeRed

I keep all my dockers in a dockers folder in my home directory. If it doesn’t exist already, create this folder:-

mkdir ~/dockers

Now create a folder for NodeRed to live in.

mkdir ~/dockers/nodered

We need to create a folder for NodeRed to store data in.

mkdir ~/dockers/nodered/data

Change directory to this folder

cd ~/dockers/nodered

Create a docker-compose.yml file

nano docker-compose.yml

Paste the following.

version: "3.7"
services:
  node-red:
    image: nodered/node-red:latest
    container_name: node-red
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/London
    ports:
      - "1880:1880"
    volumes:
      - ./data:/data

Save the file with ctl + x, then y to save.

Run the docker-compose file with the following:-

docker-compose up -d

First run

Launch a browser and go to http://serverip:1880
