WEBVTT 00:00.160 --> 00:00.760 Welcome! 00:00.800 --> 00:05.720 In this quick tutorial, I'm going to show you how to install anything locally on your own machine. 00:05.720 --> 00:07.000 If you are using windows. 00:07.160 --> 00:10.200 If you are on a MacBook, please skip to the next tutorial. 00:10.200 --> 00:16.920 In the previous lesson, I showed you how to self-host n810 on your own virtual private server. 00:17.760 --> 00:23.240 That setup is ideal if you want your automations running 24 over seven with access from anywhere and 00:23.240 --> 00:25.560 still working even when your computer is off. 00:26.040 --> 00:32.280 It also gives you more control over resources, so your local machine's power does not limit you, and 00:32.280 --> 00:38.240 it's stable, flexible, and a great option if you build serious workflows or offer it as a service. 00:38.760 --> 00:45.480 But maybe you just want to experiment with n810 or test things locally without testing up a full server. 00:45.920 --> 00:48.720 So it's super practical if you are just getting started. 00:48.920 --> 00:52.520 Want to learn the platform or build workflows offline? 00:53.200 --> 00:57.760 So in this video I will show you how to install N810 locally on your own machine. 00:57.760 --> 01:01.960 It's a great option because you can use N810 completely for free under the license. 01:02.200 --> 01:06.940 And we'll be using NodeJS which makes the process super simple. 01:09.540 --> 01:10.420 So let's jump in. 01:10.460 --> 01:14.980 So first thing first Google and GitHub. 01:18.340 --> 01:19.380 Is the first link. 01:19.380 --> 01:22.980 So for code workflow automation platform click on it. 01:24.540 --> 01:27.540 As you can see the code is publicly available for free. 01:28.220 --> 01:34.260 It has a lot of stars which means N810 has big and strong community and a lot of people are using it. 01:34.260 --> 01:37.820 So a lot of no code builders and developers love it. 01:37.820 --> 01:40.220 So once you are on the page, scroll down. 01:44.820 --> 01:51.860 You can read the documentation if you want to, but we are looking for a quick start so you can see 01:51.860 --> 01:55.500 you can try instant NGP which requires NodeJS. 01:56.420 --> 02:02.140 Or if you know how to use Docker, you can install N810 using Docker, which is a little bit more technical. 02:03.260 --> 02:05.740 But in this video we are going to use NodeJS. 02:06.140 --> 02:07.060 So just click on it. 02:09.510 --> 02:09.670 Now. 02:09.670 --> 02:15.430 As you can see, NodeJS is used to run JavaScript everywhere, so it's free and open source cross-platform 02:15.430 --> 02:21.590 JavaScript runtime environment that lets developers create serverless web apps, command line tools 02:21.590 --> 02:24.150 and scripts to just download NodeJS. 02:26.990 --> 02:28.670 It takes just a minute. 02:29.150 --> 02:32.310 Now simply click on the file to start the installation process. 02:35.750 --> 02:36.510 Click next. 02:38.630 --> 02:40.510 Accept the terms in the license agreement. 02:41.510 --> 02:42.150 Next. 02:43.670 --> 02:44.430 Next. 02:47.190 --> 02:47.910 Next. 02:49.950 --> 02:51.910 Automatically install the necessary tools. 02:52.350 --> 02:52.950 Next. 02:53.230 --> 02:53.830 Install. 02:58.390 --> 02:59.030 Confirm. 03:06.430 --> 03:08.910 Let's wait for the installation process to be completed. 03:14.050 --> 03:15.130 Now click on finish. 03:18.010 --> 03:21.250 Now the terminal should pop up so you can install anything. 03:21.970 --> 03:24.170 Now this step is optional but can be useful. 03:24.490 --> 03:30.330 So if you want to manage different versions of NodeJS, maybe you want to downgrade or switch versions. 03:30.330 --> 03:33.330 You can install a tool called npm for windows. 03:33.890 --> 03:35.730 So as I said this is not necessary. 03:35.850 --> 03:38.530 But you can google npm for windows. 03:38.570 --> 03:39.610 Open the first link. 03:42.970 --> 03:45.010 And scroll down to the last section. 03:48.050 --> 03:48.650 Right here. 03:48.770 --> 03:51.450 Just click on it right now. 03:55.410 --> 03:56.490 And look for the. 03:58.690 --> 04:00.930 NVM set Update.zip. 04:03.530 --> 04:04.450 So download it. 04:08.010 --> 04:11.130 You can unzip the folder and just run the installer. 04:12.130 --> 04:18.540 So this lets you easily switch between different node versions later, which can help you if something 04:18.540 --> 04:21.540 is not working with the latest version. 04:22.300 --> 04:27.540 Now when we visit the NodeJS website, you will notice there are quite a few versions to choose from. 04:27.980 --> 04:31.300 So in the download section you can see all the versions right here. 04:32.940 --> 04:36.020 So most of the time the latest version works perfectly fine. 04:36.420 --> 04:44.020 But once in a while a new release may cause some issues with certain tools, including ten. 04:44.060 --> 04:49.540 So if you ever run into problems, it might help to switch to an older version of node. 04:50.420 --> 04:52.180 So not the current one, the older one. 04:53.660 --> 04:59.180 So if you have already installed the NVM for windows, you can easily switch between versions with a 04:59.180 --> 05:03.700 simple command so you don't need to uninstall or reinstall anything manually. 05:04.580 --> 05:09.420 So yeah, it's not required, but definitely useful if you want to have that extra flexibility. 05:10.140 --> 05:10.380 Right. 05:10.660 --> 05:11.340 Let's move on. 05:11.500 --> 05:18.100 Once you install the NodeJS just simply go to the search bar and search for NodeJS. 05:18.100 --> 05:18.200 Node.js. 05:20.280 --> 05:21.680 Node.js command prompt. 05:23.600 --> 05:26.680 Don't worry, you just need to enter a few simple commands. 05:27.120 --> 05:30.280 So here we need to run the command to install N810. 05:30.960 --> 05:36.360 So let's type npm install. 05:42.480 --> 05:46.440 Dash g and then enter. 05:49.880 --> 05:52.480 So it will start downloading everything it needs. 05:53.520 --> 05:57.000 This usually takes a couple of minutes depending on your internet. 06:01.840 --> 06:03.360 And you only need to do this once. 06:06.000 --> 06:08.400 And then you can run n810 anytime from the terminal. 08:33.000 --> 08:33.400 Now. 08:33.400 --> 08:36.880 As soon as the packages are installed successfully, it will look like this. 08:37.840 --> 08:39.440 So now you can close this window. 08:41.720 --> 08:42.680 And reopen it. 08:44.120 --> 08:45.880 So open Node.js command prompt again. 08:48.440 --> 08:53.760 And now in the terminal we need to type n and press enter. 08:54.640 --> 08:58.160 And in about a minute or two and then restart running on your local machine. 09:06.720 --> 09:10.680 Now once this command is executed you will see a local URL. 09:11.640 --> 09:15.040 So just copy it and paste it to your browser. 09:16.480 --> 09:17.200 Hit enter. 09:22.200 --> 09:24.360 And you will land on this sign up page. 09:24.400 --> 09:30.360 So just fill in your email, first name, last name and password to create your local account. 09:31.160 --> 09:32.660 And once you are in, you will see say that. 09:33.180 --> 09:33.900 Interface. 09:34.020 --> 09:39.820 Now when you shut down the NodeJS terminal, you will lose access to an instance. 09:39.820 --> 09:47.740 So every time you want to start your local instance, you need to go to Node.js command prompt terminal. 09:50.300 --> 09:52.900 Type and then press enter. 09:55.740 --> 09:56.820 Wait a few seconds. 10:12.900 --> 10:14.540 And copy your localhost URL. 10:20.620 --> 10:21.700 And paste it to your browser. 10:24.300 --> 10:27.340 Or just refresh the page with localhost URL. 10:28.580 --> 10:30.540 So you need to do it every single time. 10:32.660 --> 10:34.060 All right, that's it for this tutorial. 10:34.060 --> 10:36.860 I hope it was helpful and see you in the next one.
