+# node-red-contrib-opcua-connector-manager
+
+A Node-RED sidebar panel that lists every **config node** reference across all flow tabs and lets you bulk-reassign them in one shot — useful when promoting flows from dev to prod.
+
+Despite the name it works with **any** config node type: OPCUA connectors, MQTT brokers, HTTP request configs, database connections, whatever.
+
+---
+
+## Features
+
+- **Sidebar panel** — always accessible via the ⇄ icon, no node placement needed
+- **Config-type selector** — pick any type that actually exists in the workspace
+- **Per-instance cards**, each showing:
+  - Name and detail line (endpoint URL, broker address, host…)
+  - Flow-tab pills with per-flow node counts
+  - *Replace with* dropdown
+- **Bulk apply** — one click to reassign all referencing nodes, then Deploy to save
+- **Stale-reference detection** — highlights nodes pointing to deleted config nodes
+
+---
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Node-RED ≥ 3.0.0
+- Node.js ≥ 18.0.0
+
+---
+
+## Installation
+
+### npm
+
+```bash
+cd ~/.node-red
+npm install node-red-contrib-opcua-connector-manager
+```
+
+### Docker
+
+```dockerfile
+COPY nodes/ /opt/nr-local-nodes/
+RUN npm install /opt/nr-local-nodes/node-red-contrib-opcua-connector-manager
+```
+
+---
+
+## Usage
+
+Open the **⇄** tab in the Node-RED right sidebar. That's it.
+
+1. Pick a config node type from the dropdown at the top.
+2. Each card is one config node instance. The flow pills show you exactly where it's used.
+3. Set *Replace with* on the cards you want to change.
+4. Click **Apply Changes**, then **Deploy**.
+
+You can also drop the *Config Node Mgr* node from the *Connector Manager* palette onto any flow — double-clicking it opens the sidebar automatically.
+
+---
+
+## Dev → Prod example
+
+Say you have two OPCUA connectors:
+
+| Config node | Endpoint |
+|---|---|
+| OPC Server – Dev | `opc.tcp://dev-plc:4840` |
+| OPC Server – Prod | `opc.tcp://10.0.1.5:4840` |
+
+Open the panel, select `OPCUA-IIoT-Connector`, set *Replace with* to *OPC Server – Prod* on the dev card, click Apply, Deploy. Done.
+
+---
+
+## Example flow
+
+Import [`examples/config-node-manager.json`](./examples/config-node-manager.json) via **☰ → Import**.

+        A persistent <strong>sidebar panel</strong> that lists every config node reference
+        across all flows and lets you bulk-reassign them — handy when promoting from dev to prod.
+    </p>
+
+    <h3>Opening the panel</h3>
+    <p>
+        Click the <b>⇄</b> tab in the right sidebar. It is always there
+        without placing this node on the canvas. Double-clicking the canvas node also opens it.
+    </p>
+
+    <h3>Workflow</h3>
+    <ol>
+        <li>Pick a config node type from the dropdown.</li>
+        <li>Each card represents one node that references a config. Unused config nodes are hidden.</li>
+        <li>Use the <em>→</em> dropdown on each card to pick a replacement connector.</li>
+        <li>Click <strong>Apply Changes</strong>, then <strong>Deploy</strong> to persist.</li>
+    </ol>
+
+    <h3>Stale references</h3>
+    <p>Red cards mark nodes whose config was deleted. Use the dropdown to assign a valid replacement.</p>
+
+    <h3>Notes</h3>
+    <ul>
+        <li>Works with any config node type, not just OPCUA.</li>
+        <li>Nothing is saved until you Deploy.</li>
+    </ul>
