Debug

Debugging on remote devices is important to help users. The verbose logging provides interesting points in different abstractions if IDE or console debugging is not possible.

Start debug with Node-RED in verbose (-v) mode to get a verbose logging:

DEBUG=opcuaIIoT* node-red -v 1>nodeREDIIoTOPCUA.log 2>&1

or on local Node-RED

DEBUG=opcuaIIoT* node red.js -v 1>nodeREDIIoTOPCUAServer.log 2>&1

Klaus Landsdorf

That is a whole new Node-RED package started in 2017 based on the node-opcua v0.1.x and the API documentation. The old copyrights by Mika Karaila are just to honor his pioneer work in the years 2015/2016 for Node-RED and OPC UA.

Important

This is not an official product of the OPC Foundation. It is just to provide OPC UA to Node-RED based on node-opcua.

Contribution node-opcua
