node red gpio

[little owl]

Hi.

                 Having recently purchased several rock64 boards and a pine A64 , i am horrified to find it supports node red but has no GPIO nodes.( the main reason for using node red ).

     It either doesn't exist or i've got to take a linux degree to do it. ( unfortunately im a PLC engineer and my brain is fuddled as it is ).
ive scanned this forum and the internet for hours......no joy

please put me out of my misery, or shall i ebay the lot???

you need a node red gpio library installed to use gpio pins. you might try to install the rpi library which i think is python-rpi.gpio
also, the user needs to be of group gpio.
