Hello,
Is it possible to make the flow and globals persistent variables in a NodeRed program (keep value on reboot)?
I have seen some tutorial in the NodeRed documentation, with context variables but it forces to modify the settings.js file which is not in the NodeRed directory.
Working with context : Node-RED (nodered.org)
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello,
Local file system storage is enabled on the ctrlx Node-RED distribution. Every 60s the Node-RED file context is saved to the Node-RED app data /context directory.
contextStorage: {
default: 'memoryOnly',
memoryOnly: {
module: 'memory'
},
file: {
module: 'localfilesystem',
cache: true,
flushInterval: 60
}
},
You can write values using the change node. Example below.
