    sudo ./build
    sudo apt-get install gcc

Install Node-RED
==================
`Installing Node-RED on Raspberry Pi <https://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/raspberrypi>`_

Prerequisites
-------------
Ensure npm is able to build any binary modules it needs to install. 
::
    sudo apt-get install build-essential

Download and installation
-------------------------
To install Node.js, npm and Node-RED onto a Raspberry Pi, run the following command will that download and install them: 
::
    bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/node-red/linux-installers/master/deb/update-nodejs-and-nodered)
    
Due to the limited memory of the Raspberry Pi, you will need to start Node-RED with an additional argument to tell the underlying Node.js process to free up unused memory sooner than it would otherwise.
::
    node-red-pi --max-old-space-size=256

Autostart on boot
-----------------
Run Node-RED when the Pi is turned on, or re-booted, enable the service to autostart by running the command:
::
    sudo systemctl enable nodered.service

Check the installation
----------------------
Make sure NodeRed is correctly installed by reaching the following page from the broswer of your pi :
::
    http://localhost:1880.

Install few nodes
-----------------
These nodes will be used in Node-RED:
::  
    cd .node-red/
    npm install node-red-dashboard
    npm install node-red-contrib-python3-function
    npm install node-red-contrib-camerapi
    npm install node-red-contrib-gpsd
    npm install node-red-contrib-web-worldmap

Import the last GUI
-------------------

Import the `lastest version of the GUI <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tpollina/PlanktonScope/master/scripts/flows_planktonscope.json>`_
