# node-red-contrib-initialstate

This [Node-RED](https://nodered.org/) node may be used for passing data

points to [Initial State](https://initialstate.com) for graphing and

analysis.

The node pushes an event to an Initial State bucket.

Simply, `msg.topic` is passed as the data event _key_, while `msg.payload`

is passed as the data event _value_ if it is a string or number.

Alternatively, `msg.payload` may be an object containing at least `value`,

and optionally `key`, and/or `date` to override the topic and the current

timestamp.

Error handling is rudimentary at this time.  The successful connection of

the node to Initial State should be handled, but failed data event pushes

are not detected.

# Installation

Change directory to your node red installation:

```

    npm install node-red-contrib-initialstate

```

or alternatively, use the Palette Manager in Node-RED.

# Configuration

Each node should be configured with a Bucket Key and an Access Key as

supplied by Initial State during the setup procedure for a Bucket.

There is no shared configuration node at this time.
