# Node-RED Examples for the Onion Omega2+ / Omega2 Pro
[Onion](https://onion.io/) Omega2+ / Omega2 Pro Node-RED flows running on a $5 single board computer!
### Introduction
These Node-RED recipes for the Omega2+ / Omega2 Pro demonstrate:
- Hello World
- Send Random Numbers 1-100 to Watson IoT Platform, the Omega2+ OLED display, and LEDs
- Send CPU stats from the Omega2 Pro to Watson IoT Platform
- Display hourly Weather report from IBM Cloud on the Omega2+ OLED display
- Send GPS coordinates to Watson IoT Platform and the Omega2+ OLED display
- The IBM Cloud flow that sends / receives the Omega2+ MQTT events
### Learning Objectives
- Learn how to install Node-RED on the Omega2 Pro
- Create Node-RED flows that execute on the Onion Omega2 devices
- Send data from the Omega2 edge device to the IBM Cloud and Watson IoT Platform
- Receive commands and data from IBM Cloud and display information on the Omega2 LED
### Prerequistes
- [Install Node-RED](https://github.com/OnionIoT/Onion-Docs/blob/master/Omega2/Documentation/Doing-Stuff/Installing-Software/node-red.md) on the Omega2 Pro
- Once Node-RED is installed, several additional Node-RED nodes will be necessary. Install the following nodes using the npm command line.
- To install additional Node packages with Node-RED, install NPM:
```
# opkg update
# opkg install node-npm
```
- Install **node-red-contrib-cpu**
```# node --max_old_space_size=512 $(which npm) -g install node-red-contrib-cpu```
- Install **node-red-contrib-ibm-watson-iot**
```# node --max_old_space_size=512 $(which npm) -g install node-red-contrib-ibm-watson-iot```
- Register for a free [IBM Cloud](https://cloud.ibm.com/registration?cm_mmc=ibmdev-_-omega2-_-gitbhub-_-jwalicki) Lite Account
- Log into [IBM Cloud](http://cloud.ibm.com)
- Create a [Internet of Things Platform Starter](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/starters/internet-of-things-platform-starter)
### Omega2+ Prerequistes
- Followed the [directions to create an SD card for the Omega2+ with both a Swap partition and a /root partition](https://github.com/pjobson/onion_omega2p_experiments/blob/master/docs/setting_up_sdcard_for_root_and_swap.md) to extend the available file space.
- Install and run the Node-RED Install Tool
```bash
# opkg install node-red-install-tool
# node-red-install-tool
```
- Install **node-red-contrib-ibm-watson-iot**
```bash
# opkg install node-red-contrib-ibm-watson-iot
```
- Register for a free [IBM Cloud](https://cloud.ibm.com/registration?cm_mmc=ibmdev-_-omega2-_-gitbhub-_-jwalicki) Lite Account
- Log into [IBM Cloud](http://cloud.ibm.com)
- Create a [Internet of Things Platform Starter](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/starters/internet-of-things-platform-starter)
## Download
- There are screenshots posted so you can see the Node-RED flows
- If you're interested in trying these recipes on your Onion Omega2+ / Omega2 Pro, import the flows [here](flows/OnionPro-NodeRED-examples.json)
## Node-RED flows in this repository:
This Hello World flow shows Node-RED running on the Onion Omega2+
This flow sends Random Numbers from 1-100 to Watson IoT Platform, the Omega2+ OLED display and flashes the Omega2+ LED high/medium/low - red/yellow/green.
This flow uses the node-red-contrib-cpu node to send Omega2 Pro CPU stats to Watson IoT Platform
This flow sends GPS coordinates to Watson IoT Platform and the Omega2+ OLED display
This flow receives the current Weather temp from the IBM Cloud / Watson IoT Platform and displays it on the Omega2+ OLED display.
This IBM Cloud flow shows the MQTT events being received and sent to the Omega2+
Watson IoT Quickstart screenshot that graphs the random numbers being sent from the Onion Omega2+.
