Following the blog posts and the demo, which took some time, I’ve finally created a video on my YouTube channel, which you can also access below. It’s quite a long video but that’s because I go through all that I’ve gone through in the blog posts and more. And if it’s not included elsewhere – […]

So far we’ve covered using Node-RED triggering REST services which could be SmartNSF routes, XAgents or custom Java REST services in OSGi plugins – and indeed any REST endpoints, on Domino or beyond. Apart from re-using XPages code, there’s no real advantage so far over LotusScript or Java agents. But if agents are dependent upon

In the previous part we used a basic XAgent and a SmartNSF custom route to trigger Xots tasks. But both still required setting up a Xots task as a specific Java class. As long as all we’re wanting to do is process a REST service and send a basic response, there are more things we

In the previous part I covered Node-RED. The announcement a few weeks ago of NodeJS integration with Domino will hopefully reduce resistance from customers for using the two together. In this part I’ll start covering XPages code triggered from the scheduled tasks – or external integration points – of Node-RED. Bear in mind that I’m

In the previous part I covered setting up Node-RED, in my scenario as a Docker image. Triggering Domino code on schedule is surprisingly straightforward, requiring just two nodes. The first is the inject node and the second is the http request node. The inject node allows a process to be scheduled. The payload for the

The first part I’ll cover is the scheduler – Node-RED. Many developers may not be familiar with it, but for more on why I think it’s a good fit, see the previous part of the series. The best place to get started is the Getting Started part of the Node-RED site. Node-RED, as its name

Before Christmas I blogged a teaser about running Xots tasks scheduled. Various demos have been constructed and a video will be coming, but I decided to blog about the components I would recommend to a customer. This is very much a modular approach with a lot of BYO components. But therein lies its strength, in
