Node-RED Install
================
## Install node.js
You can get the latest version from <http://nodejs.org/download/>.
Or, you may want to use a version from your operating system's package manager:
<https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installing-Node.js-via-package-manager>
## Get Node-RED
Clone the repository from GitHub:
$ git clone git@github.com:node-red/node-red.git
## Install the pre-requisite modules
From the top-level directory of Node-RED, run:
$ npm install
This will install the core pre-requisite modules.
## Run Node-RED
From the top-level directory, run:
$ node red.js
You can then access Node-RED at <http://localhost:1880>.
Online documentation is available at <http://nodered.org/docs>.
## Installing individual node dependencies
When Node-RED starts, it attempts to load the nodes from the `nodes/` directory.
Each will have its own set of dependencies that will need to be installed before
the node is available in the palette.
To help identify the dependencies, Node-RED logs any modules it fails to find
for a particular node. You don't have to install these unless you want or need
that node to appear.
Alternatively, a node's `.js` file can be examined to identify the modules it
explicitly requires. For example, the Twitter node is defined in
`nodes/social/27-twitter.js` and contains:
var RED = require("../../red/red");
var ntwitter = require('ntwitter');
var OAuth= require('oauth').OAuth;
Of these, `ntwitter` and `oauth` are neither built-in modules nor ones provided
by Node-RED itself. They can subsequently be installed by running:
$ npm install ntwitter oauth

## Browser Support
The Node-RED editor runs in the browser. We routinely develop and test using
Chrome and Firefox. We have anecdotal evidence that it works in recent versions of IE.
We have basic support for using in mobile/tablet browsers.
