Node-RED packaged for Sandstorm.io

Limitations

Sandstorm security model restricts outgoing and incoming connections. A hack exists to proxy connections, but the 'powerbox' feature will soon enable applications to selectively request the user authorization to perform such connections.

In the described setup this is not implemented. Therefore, only Node-RED interactions without a network are possible.

FROM node:6

# Should run as non-root user but currently can't make it to work behind a reverse proxy. Alternatives are:
# 1) Change source to show a different websocket port than the one listened: https://github.com/xwiki-labs/cryptpad/issues/42
# 2) Tweak reverse proxy to rewrite GET /api/config responses
# 3) Expose server on port 80 within Docker container <-- simplest approach selected

# Create directories
RUN mkdir /data \
  && mkdir -p /usr/src/app \
