About This Workflow

Overview

This workflow periodically retrieves the current latitude and longitude of the International Space Station (ISS) and publishes this information to a specified topic in RabbitMQ. It's designed for real-time tracking and data distribution.

Key Features

Scheduled Execution: Triggers every minute using a Cron node.
Real-time Data Fetching: Utilizes an HTTP Request node to get ISS position data.
Data Transformation: Employs a Set node to structure the fetched ISS data (latitude, longitude, timestamp, name).
Message Queuing: Publishes the formatted data to a RabbitMQ queue.
Error Handling: Includes a Stop and Error node for robust error management.

How To Use

Import the workflow: Load this JSON into your n8n instance.
Configure RabbitMQ Credentials: Set up your RabbitMQ credentials in n8n.
Set BASE_URL Environment Variable: Ensure the $env.BASE_URL environment variable is correctly configured to point to the ISS position API endpoint.
Configure RabbitMQ Node: Verify the queue parameter in the RabbitMQ node is set to iss-position or your desired topic.
Activate the workflow: Enable the workflow to start sending ISS position updates.
