node "file in" location #304

GACHAPO posted onGitHub

Need to store data from a sensor in a file.

Current standalone Node Red will store to a directory Door and a file Dataflush and is set in the node as Door/Dataflush as the path

File with a list of sensor readings. Both file and directory created. With Node Red in Hass.io I have created the following directory structure. /home/pi/Door/Dataflush and I have tried with and without the absolute path to no avail.

I wonder if there is a hidden file structure I should be aware of and if the data is being stored elsewhere?

Thanks in advance

It is recommended to use the /share folder for sharing data between add-ons or Home Assistant.

Thanks for coming back to me so promptly.

I made file in the share directory and I have changed the node to the absolute path /share/Dataflush and share/Dataflush to no avail. No data ever populates the file.

I there anything else I am missing please?
