Yes - the package was built on a previous version of OpenWRT needs some work to redo on 19 and with a decent level of node.js. (eg 12 or 14) Happy to look at a Pull request if anyone interested and has the time.

Thanks, way beyond my capabilities – I’m into pi zero’s and Arduino pro mini – small is beautiful.

Following worked for me: Because my internal storage of my router is too small, I mount a USB stick to /root: mkdir /usr/lib/node_modules mount -o bind /root/node_modules /usr/lib/node_modules/

Node-Red installation: opkg install node-npm reboot (make sure, usb stick is mounted again to /root and /usr/lib/node_modles) npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red

Start Node-Red:

• Screen session: node-red

Thanks for above. Unfortunately, lots of space just incompatibility of architectures???
