【Add-on Guide】n8n - Free and open fair-code licensed node based Workflow Automation Tool

Hello,

iHost is capable of running a n8n server, which provides a node based workflow automation tool.

Docker image (ARMv7) here.
Docker image (Original) here.

Here is how:

  1. Create two volumes named n8n-data and n8n-app.

  2. In the add-on list, search for crazymax/n8n and add it to your local list.

  3. After adding it, go to Docker Add-on List and click Run.

  4. As Optional settings:
    Port: 15678:5678
    Network: bridge
    Volumes:
    Host volume: n8n-app / Add-on volume: /app
    Host volume: n8n-data / Add-on volume: /data
    Environment variables:
    TZ=your preferable timezone (see TZ identifier here )

  5. (Optional) On filebrowser/filebrowser add-on, map both volumes to a browse-able folder.
    Volume n8n-data → /srv/n8n/data
    Volume n8n-app → /srv/n8n/app
    image

  6. You should be able to access n8n editor on http://[ihost]:15678 (e.g. http://192.168.3.13:15678/).


    Info: There’s a git not found message on log, but AFAIK it doesn’t interfere with running it.

That’s it. n8n should provide you a way of creating powerful workflow automation.
