Node-RED TypeScript Node

Node-RED TypeScript Node is a small library for writing Node-RED nodes using TypeScript. It allows the use of classes by extending the main class Node and makes use of the TypeScript type definitions for Node-RED. Most method are just easier-to-use wrappers around RED.nodes functions.

Examples are available in the examples directory.

⚠️ Warning ⚠️

This library is still in its very initial stages. As such, tread with caution.
