nextcloud-collabora-nodered

Collabora / Nextcloud Office nodes for your existing nextcloud-node-red on port 1880.

Does not create a new Node-RED container.

Default: integrate (not sidecar)

INSTALL_MODE=integrate (default) patches and rebuilds the existing nextcloud-node-red on :1880. No extra container, no port 1881. Sidecar only if you explicitly set INSTALL_MODE=sidecar.

Quick install

curl -fsSL https://kode.hannesahlin.se/n3wk/nextcloud-collabora-nodered/raw/branch/main/bootstrap-install.sh | sudo -u ncdeploy bash

That script:

Clones this repo
Copies nodes into your nextcloud-node-red tree
Patches Dockerfile + entrypoint.sh
Rebuilds the same image and restarts the container
Connects Node-RED to Docker bridge so CODE is reachable

Update nodes

cd /path/to/nextcloud-collabora-nodered
git pull
./install.sh

Manual integration

NODERED_DIR=/path/to/nextcloud-node-red ./scripts/integrate-into-nodered.sh

Sidecar :1881 (not recommended)

Only if you explicitly want a separate instance:

INSTALL_MODE=sidecar docker compose --profile sidecar up -d --build

Nodes

Palette: nextcloud collabora — six nodes in the same purple, all wired to nc-collab-config (gear icon, not a flow node).

nc-collab-config · collabora-bridge · nc-office · collabora-convert · collabora-extract · collabora-transform · collabora-wopi

Collabora URLs — intern vs publik

Intern collaboraUrl (Node-RED → CODE): HTTPS, self-signed — https://code:9980 när CODE delar nätverk med Node-RED (ssl.enable=true; http://code:9980 failar), eller fallback https://<bridge-ip>:9980 (t.ex. 172.17.0.x) efter docker network connect bridge nextcloud-node-red. Sätt verifyTls=false i config-noden (self-signed internt).
Publik collaboraPublicUrl (browser/WOPI): https://docs.domain.name — CODE via reverse proxy.

Install on any Nextcloud VM

Copy .env.example → .env and set at least NEXTCLOUD_URL. The rest is auto-detected:

Variable	Default / auto
`NODERED_DIR`	compose label or common paths
`CODE_CONTAINER`	`code`
`COLLABORA_IP`	bridge IP via `docker inspect`
`NODERED_CONTAINER`	`nextcloud-node-red`
`NODERED_PORT`	`1880`

cp .env.example .env   # set NEXTCLOUD_URL for your VM
git pull
./install.sh           # needs root/sudo for docker compose
