n8n

n8n is a workflow automation platform for connecting APIs, services, and custom logic. Use this component when you need Diploi to build and deploy n8n so you can focus on building workflows, not configuring runtime environments.

Add to your project

Paste this entry into the components list in diploi.yaml to add n8n to your project.

components:
  - name: n8n
    identifier: n8n
    package: https://github.com/diploi/component-n8n#v1.112.4
    env:
      include:
        - postgres.POSTGRES_HOST:DB_POSTGRESDB_HOST
        - postgres.POSTGRES_PORT:DB_POSTGRESDB_PORT
        - postgres.POSTGRES_USER:DB_POSTGRESDB_USER
        - postgres.POSTGRES_PASSWORD:DB_POSTGRESDB_PASSWORD
addons:
  - name: PostgreSQL
    identifier: postgres
    package: https://github.com/diploi/addon-postgres#v17.2

In Diploi, n8n uses Postgres for database, so you need to add a Postgres db if your deployment doesn’t have one available. Click here to learn how to add Postgres to your project.
identifier must match the folder name you use for this component in your repo.
You can import ENV from add-ons into components using env.include:

env:
  include:
    - postgres.POSTGRES_HOST:DB_POSTGRESDB_HOST
    - postgres.POSTGRES_PORT:DB_POSTGRESDB_PORT
    - postgres.POSTGRES_USER:DB_POSTGRESDB_USER
    - postgres.POSTGRES_PASSWORD:DB_POSTGRESDB_PASSWORD
