8 ## Summary
9
10 Simple [node.js](https://nodejs.org/) software to simulate and scale a set of charging stations based on the OCPP-J 1.6 protocol as part of SAP e-Mobility solution.
11
12 ## Prerequisites
13
14 Install the [node.js](https://nodejs.org/) current LTS or superior version runtime environment:
15
16 ### Windows
17
18 - [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/):
19
20 ```powershell
21 choco install -y nodejs
22 ```
23
24 ### MacOSX
25
26 - [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):
27
28 ```shell
29 brew install node
30 ```
31
32 ### GNU/Linux
33
34 - [NodeSource](https://github.com/nodesource/distributions) Node.js Binary Distributions for version >= 16.X
35
36 ## Installation
37
38 Enable corepack if not already done and install latest pnpm version:
39
40 ```shell
41 corepack enable
42 corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate
43 ```
44
45 In the repository root, run the following command:
46
47 ```shell
48 pnpm install
49 ```
50
51 ## Initial configuration
52
53 Copy the configuration template file [src/assets/config-template.json](src/assets/config-template.json) to [src/assets/config.json](src/assets/config.json).
54 Copy the RFID tags template file [src/assets/idtags-template.json](src/assets/idtags-template.json) to [src/assets/idtags.json](src/assets/idtags.json).
55
56 Tweak them to your needs by following the section [configuration files syntax](README.md#configuration-files-syntax).
57
58 ## Start
59
60 To start the program, run: `pnpm start`.
61
62 ## Start Web UI
63
64 See Web UI [README.md](ui/web/README.md) for more information.
65
66 ## Configuration files syntax
67
68 All configuration files are in the JSON standard format.
69
70 **Configuration files locations**:
71
72 - charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](src/assets/config.json);
73 - charging station configuration templates: [src/assets/station-templates](src/assets/station-templates);
74 - charging station configurations: [dist/assets/configurations](dist/assets/configurations);
75 - charging station RFID tags lists: [src/assets](src/assets).
76
77 The charging stations simulator's configuration parameters must be within the `src/assets/config.json` file. A charging station simulator configuration template file is available at [src/assets/config-template.json](src/assets/config-template.json).
78
79 All charging station configuration templates are in the directory [src/assets/station-templates](src/assets/station-templates).
80
81 A list of RFID tags must be defined for the automatic transaction generator in a file with the default location and name: `src/assets/idtags.json`. A template file is available at [src/assets/idtags-template.json](src/assets/idtags-template.json).
82
83 **Configuration files hierarchy and priority**:
84
85 1. charging station configuration: [dist/assets/configurations](dist/assets/configurations);
86 2. charging station configuration template: [src/assets/station-templates](src/assets/station-templates);
87 3. charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](src/assets/config.json).
88
89 The charging stations simulator has an automatic configuration files reload feature at change for:
90
91 - charging stations simulator configuration;
92 - charging station configuration templates;
93 - charging station authorization RFID tags lists.
94
95 But the modifications to test have to be done to the files in the build target directory [dist/assets](dist/assets). Once the modifications are done, they have to be reported to the matching files in the build source directory [src/assets](src/assets) to ensure they will be taken into account at next build.

326 ### Charging station configuration
327
328 **dist/assets/configurations/\<hashId\>.json**:
329
330 The charging station configuration file is automatically generated at startup from the charging station configuration template file and is persistent.
331
332 The charging station configuration file content can be regenerated partially on matching charging station configuration template file changes. The charging station serial number is kept unchanged.
333
334 #### stationInfo section
335
336 The syntax is similar to charging station configuration template with some added fields like the charging station id (name) and the 'Configuration' section removed.
337
338 #### configurationKey section
339
340 The syntax is similar to the charging station configuration template 'Configuration' section.
341
342 #### automaticTransactionGenerator section
343
344 The syntax is similar to the charging station configuration template 'AutomaticTransactionGenerator' section.
345
