noflo components not showing up

Question

I am trying to get started with NoFlo on Windows. After following these instructions:

http://flowhub.io/documentation/getting-started-node/

I was able to start a noflo.js runtime.

However, when trying to create my first graph, I can only see some core components. Filesystem components are not available at all even though I did install it using

npm install noflo-filesystem --save

Any ideas?

Answer 1

I had similar problem where the websocket cannot establish a connection to my local noflo runtime and thus not showing any components. Did you generate your flowhub.json with --host localhost? (as instructed in the guide)

Initialize a runtime with --host autodetect instead.
