Are there  detailed instructions on installing a node server from a git repo via SSH to the Polisy? 

I have cloned a fork of the Notification NS to /var/polyglot/nodeservers and have run install.sh.  The Node server appears in Register New Node Server and can be added but will never start.

Is this on Polisy? Directory permission needs to be opened up for the polyglot user.

I had to figure this out to install a custom lifx and the Pentair pool node server that is not in the store

this quote from XKing should get u going

 

Sure, become polyglot user first (it will ask for admin's password)

sudo -u polyglot -s

then 

mkdir ~/lifxtest
cd ~/lifxtest
git clone https://github.com/exking/lifxlan.git
.

Thanks guys,

I was able to change the user of the dir to polyglot from root which allowed the node server to run.  I am still having a few issues, but the NS is running which should allow me to locate any other problems. 

One other question: Is it safe to delete the directories in the polyglot/nodeserver for a NS which I am not using?
