How to enable the project function ? - VenusOS Large - Node Red

Hi,

iam using the venus OS Large image (raspberry4 v.2.92) and i want to enable the "project-function" as described here: https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/projects/

But i cant find the correct "setting.js"

I set "project enbale: true" here:

./usr/lib/node_modules/node-red/settings.js
./usr/lib/node_modules/node-red/venus-settings.js

but nothing happens. Is it possible at all in the large image?


Thanks


Stephan

The NodeRed document says the projects feature will only work if git is available on the system, which isn't available on my Cerbo GX device.

I use the NodeRed project feature on my HomeAssistant install (which has git installed) and I agree it would be a nice feature to have to as it allows for revisions and backups of the Victron NodeRed flows.

It is not too hard to install git. Just login via ssh and:

/opt/victronenergy/swupdate-scripts/remount-rw.sh
opkg update
opkg install git
