WEBVTT 00:00.840 --> 00:01.520 Welcome. 00:01.520 --> 00:08.200 In the previous lesson, I showed you how to self-host Nathan on your own virtual private server. 00:09.040 --> 00:14.520 That setup is ideal if you want your automations running 24 over seven with access from anywhere and 00:14.520 --> 00:16.840 still working even when your computer is off. 00:17.320 --> 00:23.520 It also gives you more control over resources, so your local machine's power does not limit you, and 00:23.520 --> 00:29.520 it's stable, flexible, and a great option if you build serious workflows or offer it as a service. 00:30.000 --> 00:36.760 But maybe you just want to experiment with n810 or test things locally without testing cup full server. 00:37.240 --> 00:40.120 So it's super practical if you are just getting started. 00:40.160 --> 00:43.800 Want to learn the platform or build workflows offline? 00:44.480 --> 00:48.920 So in this video I will show you how to install N810 locally on your own machine. 00:49.040 --> 00:53.240 It's a great option because you can use N810 completely for free under the license. 00:53.480 --> 00:58.200 And we'll be using NodeJS, which makes the process super simple. 01:00.800 --> 01:01.680 So let's jump in. 01:01.720 --> 01:06.230 So first thing first Google N810 GitHub. 01:09.630 --> 01:12.870 Is the first link so far code workflow automation platform. 01:13.510 --> 01:14.230 Click on it. 01:15.790 --> 01:18.790 As you can see, the code is publicly available for free. 01:19.470 --> 01:25.030 It has a lot of stars, which means N810 has big and strong community and a lot of people are using 01:25.030 --> 01:25.510 it. 01:25.510 --> 01:29.110 So a lot of no code builders and developers love it. 01:29.110 --> 01:31.510 So once you are on the page, scroll down. 01:36.110 --> 01:41.830 You can read the documentation if you want to, but we are looking for a quick start. 01:42.590 --> 01:49.270 So as you can see, you can try it in instant NGP which requires Node.js or if you know how to use Docker, 01:49.270 --> 01:53.430 you can install N810 using Docker, which is a little bit more technical. 01:54.510 --> 01:57.030 But in this video we are going to use NodeJS. 01:57.390 --> 01:58.350 So just click on it. 02:00.710 --> 02:06.780 Now as you can see, Node.js is used to run JavaScript everywhere, so it's free and open source cross-platform 02:06.780 --> 02:11.180 JavaScript runtime environment that lets developers create serverless web apps. 02:11.820 --> 02:15.420 Command line tools and scripts such as download Node.js. 02:18.300 --> 02:19.940 It takes just a minute. 02:20.420 --> 02:23.580 Now simply click on the file to start the installation process. 02:27.060 --> 02:27.820 Click next. 02:29.900 --> 02:31.820 Accept the terms in the license agreement. 02:32.740 --> 02:33.420 Next. 02:34.980 --> 02:35.700 Next. 02:38.500 --> 02:39.220 Next. 02:41.260 --> 02:43.180 Automatically install the necessary tools. 02:43.620 --> 02:44.260 Next. 02:44.460 --> 02:45.100 Install. 02:49.620 --> 02:50.300 Confirm. 02:57.700 --> 03:00.220 Lets wait for the installation process to be completed. 03:05.260 --> 03:06.380 Now click on finish. 03:09.210 --> 03:12.530 Now the terminal should pop up so you can install N810. 03:13.250 --> 03:15.450 Now this step is optional but can be useful. 03:15.770 --> 03:21.610 So if you want to manage different versions of NodeJS, maybe you want to downgrade or switch versions. 03:21.610 --> 03:24.610 You can install a tool called NVM for windows. 03:25.170 --> 03:27.010 So as I said this is not necessary. 03:27.130 --> 03:29.810 But you can google NVM for windows. 03:29.850 --> 03:30.930 Open the first link. 03:34.290 --> 03:36.250 And scroll down to the last section. 03:38.970 --> 03:39.930 You see right here. 03:40.050 --> 03:42.730 Just click on it right now. 03:46.690 --> 03:47.810 And look for the. 03:49.930 --> 03:52.210 NVM setup zip. 03:54.810 --> 03:55.730 So download it. 03:59.290 --> 04:02.410 You can unzip the folder and just run the installer. 04:03.410 --> 04:09.770 So this lets you easily switch between different node versions later which can help you if something 04:09.770 --> 04:12.840 is not working with the latest version. 04:13.600 --> 04:18.800 Now when we visit the NodeJS website, you will notice there are quite a few versions to choose from. 04:19.280 --> 04:22.600 So in the download section you can see all the versions right here. 04:24.240 --> 04:27.320 So most of the time the latest version works perfectly fine. 04:27.680 --> 04:35.320 But once in a while a new release may cause some issues with certain tools, including ten. 04:35.360 --> 04:40.840 So if you ever run into problems, it might help to switch to an older version of node. 04:41.680 --> 04:43.480 So not the current one, the older one. 04:44.960 --> 04:50.440 So if you have already installed the NVM for windows, you can easily switch between versions with a 04:50.440 --> 04:55.000 simple command so you don't need to uninstall or reinstall anything manually. 04:55.880 --> 05:00.680 So yeah, it's not required, but definitely useful if you want to have that extra flexibility. 05:01.400 --> 05:02.600 Alright, let's move on. 05:02.800 --> 05:09.400 Once you install the NodeJS, just simply go to the search bar and search for NodeJS. 05:11.520 --> 05:13.000 Node.js command prompt. 05:14.940 --> 05:17.940 Don't worry, you just need to enter a few simple commands. 05:18.420 --> 05:21.540 So here we need to run the command to install N810. 05:22.220 --> 05:27.620 So let's type npm install. 05:34.460 --> 05:37.740 G and then hit enter. 05:41.180 --> 05:43.740 So it will start downloading everything it needs. 05:44.660 --> 05:48.300 So this usually takes a couple of minutes depending on your internet. 05:53.100 --> 05:54.660 And you only need to do this once. 05:57.300 --> 05:59.660 And then you can run n810 anytime from the terminal. 08:24.310 --> 08:24.710 Now. 08:24.710 --> 08:28.190 As soon as the packages are installed successfully, it will look like this. 08:29.150 --> 08:30.750 So now you can close this window. 08:32.990 --> 08:33.950 And reopen it. 08:35.390 --> 08:37.150 So open Node.js command prompt again. 08:39.710 --> 08:44.990 And now in the terminal we need to type n and press enter. 08:45.870 --> 08:49.430 And in about a minute or two and then restart running on your local machine. 08:58.030 --> 09:01.950 Now once this command is executed you will see a local URL. 09:02.910 --> 09:06.310 So just copy it and paste it to your browser. 09:07.790 --> 09:08.470 Hit enter. 09:13.430 --> 09:15.630 And you will land on this signup page. 09:15.670 --> 09:21.630 So just fill in your email, first name, last name and password to create your local account. 09:22.390 --> 09:25.140 And once you are in you will see the Interface. 09:25.300 --> 09:31.140 Now when you shut down the NodeJS terminal, you will lose access to your N810 instance. 09:31.140 --> 09:38.460 So every time you want to start your n810 local instance, you need to go to Node.js command prompt 09:38.500 --> 09:39.020 terminal. 09:41.540 --> 09:42.460 Type N810. 09:43.260 --> 09:44.180 Press enter. 09:47.020 --> 09:48.100 Wait a few seconds. 10:04.180 --> 10:05.820 And copy your localhost URL. 10:11.900 --> 10:12.980 And paste it to your browser. 10:15.580 --> 10:21.780 Or just refresh the page with localhost URL so you need to do it every single time. 10:23.980 --> 10:25.340 Alright, that's it for this tutorial. 10:25.340 --> 10:28.220 I hope it was helpful and see you in the next one.
