# n8n-nodes-starter
|
||||
|
||||
This repo contains example nodes to help you get started building your own custom integrations for [n8n](https://n8n.io). It includes the node linter and other dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
To make your custom node available to the community, you must create it as an npm package, and [submit it to the npm registry](https://docs.npmjs.com/packages-and-modules/contributing-packages-to-the-registry).
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like your node to be available on n8n cloud you can also [submit your node for verification](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/creating-nodes/deploy/submit-community-nodes/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
You need the following installed on your development machine:
|
||||
|
||||
* Docker and Docker Compose
|
||||
* NodeJS, npm and pnpm (Execture npm install -g pnpm@latest-10 after installing npm)
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have cloned the repository:
|
||||
|
||||
* Execute:
|
||||
```
|
||||
npm i
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To run the local n8n instance:
|
||||
|
||||
* Execute:
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
Now, n8n will run on http://localhost:5678.
|
||||
|
||||
When changes are made to the custom node code and you want to test it on the local instance:
|
||||
|
||||
* There is a script file called deploy-node.sh. Once executed, it will build the custom node code and deploy the Docker container. This file requires a few changes depending on the name that Docker gives to the container and the volumes:
|
||||
|
||||
* On line 24 of the script, you will see this line:
|
||||
```
|
||||
TARGET_DIR="/var/lib/docker/volumes/n8n-self-hosted_n8n_data/_data/custom/$PACKAGE_NAME"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* Depending on the container volume name, "n8n-self-hosted_n8n_data" needs to be changed. To check the volume's name, execute:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
docker volume ls
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* On lines 56 and 59, "n8n-self-hosted-n8n-1" must be changed to match the name of the container for the n8n instance.
|
||||
|
||||
* Once these changes are made, execute the script:
|
||||
```
|
||||
./deploy-node.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Using this starter
|
||||
|
||||
These are the basic steps for working with the starter. For detailed guidance on creating and publishing nodes, refer to the [documentation](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/creating-nodes/).
|
||||
|
||||
1. [Generate a new repository](https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n-nodes-starter/generate) from this template repository.
|
||||
2. Clone your new repo:
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/<your organization>/<your-repo-name>.git
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. Run `npm i` to install dependencies.
|
||||
4. Open the project in your editor.
|
||||
5. Browse the examples in `/nodes` and `/credentials`. Modify the examples, or replace them with your own nodes.
|
||||
6. Update the `package.json` to match your details.
|
||||
7. Run `npm run lint` to check for errors or `npm run lintfix` to automatically fix errors when possible.
|
||||
8. Test your node locally. Refer to [Run your node locally](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/creating-nodes/test/run-node-locally/) for guidance.
|
||||
9. Replace this README with documentation for your node. Use the [README_TEMPLATE](README_TEMPLATE.md) to get started.
|
||||
10. Update the LICENSE file to use your details.
|
||||
11. [Publish](https://docs.npmjs.com/packages-and-modules/contributing-packages-to-the-registry) your package to npm.
|
||||
|
