n8n installation and operation

This method is not recommended as no HTTPS is used. Here I show an alternative way to install.

n8n is a free and source-available workflow automation tool.

n8n can be operated with Docker Compose.

Download n8n

docker pull n8nio/n8n

Starting the Docker container

Interactive

docker run -it --rm --name n8n -p 1234:1234 -v ~/.n8n:/home/node/.n8n n8nio/n8n

Background

docker run -t -d --rm --name n8n -p 1234:1234 \
       -e GENERIC_TIMEZONE="Europe/Berlin" \
       -e TZ="Europe/Berlin" -v ~/.n8n:/home/node/.n8n n8nio/n8n

Update

docker pull n8nio/n8n
docker ps -a
docker stop [container_id]
docker rm [container_id]
docker run --name=[container_name] [options] -d n8nio/n8n
