File

The file node can be used to store files that are then used by other nodes/clients. Some examples include the CAN and Serial clients.

The default max payload of NATS is 1MB, so that is currently the file size limit, but NATS can be configured for a payload size up to 64MB. 8MB is recommended.

See the Frontend documentation for more information how the file UI is implemented.

If the Binary option is selected, the data is base64 encoded before it is transmitted and stored.
