how to run Node-Red in docker using windows

I use this command in windows I actually don't know where node_red_data is.

docker run -it -p 1882:1880 -v node_red_data:/data nodered/node-red

and I got following error.

npm ERR! code EJSONPARSE
npm ERR! file /usr/src/node-red/package.json
npm ERR! JSON.parse Failed to parse json
npm ERR! JSON.parse Unexpected end of JSON input while parsing near ''
npm ERR! JSON.parse Failed to parse package.json data.
npm ERR! JSON.parse package.json must be actual JSON, not just JavaScript.

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     /data/.npm/_logs/2021-01-26T11_44_30_912Z-debug.log

this is also my log file this file is created automatically inside my node_red_data folder

I just made my own node-red instance. I couldn't work with node-red image.

FROM node
WORKDIR /usr/src/node-red
RUN npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red
CMD node-red

Hey the issue you are facing originates in mounting the volume (-v ...) you need to pass a valid Windows Path as an argument. For more information: Official Docker documentation

Command to run Node-RED as a Docker container: docker run -p 1880:1880 -it -v "<Path-on-your-Windows-OS>:/data" nodered/node-red

Where <Path-on-your-Windows-OS> e.g. C:\Users\<username>\Documents\node-red-docker
