Integration with Node Red

I understand that you are developing a JSON API. Until that is complete, is there a mechanism to integrate Node Red on a Raspberry Pi with Rex.
BTW, I love the way that the package is built.

Re: Integration with Node Red

You are right, JSON API is in depelopment and under testing right now.
However, you can integrate Node Red and Rex together with UDP communication. See simple example on how to communicate within two Rex targets using UDP stored in .\REX_2_10_X_XXXX_x86\EXAMPLES\EXTERNAL_DEVICES\UDP\Generic_Sender_Receiver

You can modify it and use it to communicate between Node Red and Rex on the same device.

Good luck!
