Installation

From npm

cd ~/.node-red
npm install @dotwee/node-red-raindrop

From GitHub Packages

cd ~/.node-red
npm install @dotwee/node-red-raindrop --registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com

From source

cd ~/.node-red
# Clone the repository first if you haven't
# git clone https://github.com/dotWee/node-red-raindrop.git

Quick Start

1. Get Your API Access Token

1. Go to Raindrop.io Integrations
2. Create a new app to get your access token
3. Copy the access token for use in Node-RED

2. Configure Authentication

1. Add a Raindrop Config node to your flow
2. Enter your access token
3. Test the connection to verify it works

3. Start Using the Nodes

You can now use any of the Raindrop nodes in your flows. All operational nodes require a Raindrop Config node to be configured.

important:true         # Important bookmarks only
broken:true           # Broken links only
created:2023          # By creation year
"exact phrase"        # Exact phrase search

Collection IDs

Special collection IDs in Raindrop.io:

• 0 - All raindrops (except Trash)
• -1 - Unsorted collection
• -99 - Trash collection
