Hi,
I just wanted to share a fully working sparkplug flow for those of you considering using nodered as an Ignition interface.
Here you can test inputs, outputs, DBirth, DDeath, rebirth and probably more...
Screenshot:
I suggest using NPM and installing sparkplug client first like this:
npm install --unsafe-perm sparkplug-client
npm install --unsafe-perm node-red-contrib-sparkplug
I am not completely sure, but my assumption is that you get the latest sparkplug-client this way. contrib-sparkplug is a bit outdated...
