# Monster Example Flows

Import-ready Node-RED examples for `monster`.

## Files
- `basic.flow.json`
  - Purpose: quick-start flow with dashboard charts for key monster outputs.
- `integration.flow.json`
  - Purpose: lightweight integration contract example (`registerChild` path).
- `edge.flow.json`
  - Purpose: unknown-topic/edge handling smoke example.
- `monster-dashboard.flow.json`
  - Purpose: richer dashboard-focused visualization of process output.
  - Includes:
    - manual flow input
    - manual start trigger
    - seeded `rain_data` and `monsternametijden`
    - parsed report fields (`m3Total`, `m3PerPuls`, `pulse`, `running`)
- `monster-api-dashboard.flow.json`
  - Purpose: full orchestration template around `monster` with API paths and dashboard output.
  - Includes:
    - Open-Meteo weather fetch -> `rain_data`
    - Aquon SFTP CSV fetch -> `monsternametijden`
    - Z-Info token + import payload builder for `m3Total`/`m3PerPuls`
    - dashboard API publish template (Grafana)
    - placeholder-only credentials/hosts (`__SET_*__`)

## Notes
- `basic.flow.json` and `monster-dashboard.flow.json` are intentionally API-free.
- `monster-api-dashboard.flow.json` is the full API template variant and must be hardened with environment-backed secrets before production use.
- `ui-chart` uses series by `msg.topic` (`category: "topic"`, `categoryType: "msg"`).
