## Prerequisites
+Install the [node.js](https://nodejs.org/) current LTS or superior version runtime environment:
+
### Windows
- [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/):
```powershell
-choco install -y nodejs-lts
+choco install -y nodejs
```
### MacOSX
- [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):
```shell
-brew install node@16
+brew install node
+```
+
+### GNU/Linux
+
+- [NodeSource](https://github.com/nodesource/distributions) Node.js Binary Distributions for version >= 16.X
+
+## Installation
+
+Enable corepack if not already done and install latest pnpm version:
+
+```shell
+corepack enable
+corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate
+```
+
+In the repository root, run the following command:

```
-### GNU/Linux:
+## Initial configuration
-- [NodeSource](https://github.com/nodesource/distributions) Node.js Binary Distributions for version 16.X
+Copy the configuration template file [src/assets/config-template.json](src/assets/config-template.json) to [src/assets/config.json](src/assets/config.json).
+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).
+
+Tweak them to your needs by following the section [configuration files syntax](README.md#configuration-files-syntax).
+
+## Start
+
+To start the program, run: `pnpm start`.
+
+## Start Web UI
+
+See Web UI [README.md](ui/web/README.md) for more information.
## Configuration files syntax
All configuration files are in the JSON standard format.
-**Configuration files list**:
+**Configuration files locations**:
- charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](src/assets/config.json);
- charging station configuration templates: [src/assets/station-templates](src/assets/station-templates);
All charging station configuration templates are in the directory [src/assets/station-templates](src/assets/station-templates).
-A list of RFID tags must be defined for the automatic transaction generator with a default location and name: `src/assets/authorization-tags.json`. A template file is available at [src/assets/authorization-tags-template.json](src/assets/authorization-tags-template.json).
+A list of RFID tags must be defined for the automatic transaction generator in a file with a default location and name: `src/assets/idtags.json`. A template file is available at [src/assets/idtags-template.json](src/assets/idtags-template.json).
**Configuration files hierarchy and priority**:
- charging station configuration templates;
- charging station authorization RFID tags lists.
-But the modifications to test have to be done to the files in the build result directory [dist/assets](dist/assets). Once the modifications are finished, they have to be reported or copied to the matching files in the build source directory [src/assets](src/assets) to ensure they will be taken into account at next build.

### Charging station configuration
**dist/assets/configurations/\<hashId\>.json**:
The syntax is similar to the charging station configuration template 'Configuration' section.
-## Start
-
-To start the program, run: `npm start`.
-
-To start the program with a UI controller, run: `npm start:server`.
-Then, start/stop the simulator by going to `https://<hostname:port>` in a browser. Localhost port will default to 8080. For Cloud Foundry, the port is assigned based on the `process.env.PORT` environment variable.
