4d3821a2 98## Configuration files syntax
2c28fc83 99
ea208169 100All configuration files are using the JSON standard syntax.
2c28fc83 101
ff82dc5f 102**Configuration files locations**:
2c28fc83 103
f80e9e18
JB
104- charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](./src/assets/config.json);
105- charging station configuration templates: [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates);
106- charging station configurations: [dist/assets/configurations](./dist/assets/configurations);
107- charging station RFID tags lists: [src/assets](./src/assets).
2c28fc83 108
f80e9e18 109The 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).
1816f743 110
f80e9e18 111All charging station configuration templates are in the directory [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates).
1816f743 112
f80e9e18 113A 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).
1816f743
JB
114
115**Configuration files hierarchy and priority**:
116
f80e9e18
JB
1171. charging station configuration: [dist/assets/configurations](./dist/assets/configurations);
1182. charging station configuration template: [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates);
1193. charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](./src/assets/config.json).
511780c3 120
3a28512c 121The charging stations simulator has an automatic configuration files reload feature at change for:
511780c3 122
170bec53 123- charging stations simulator configuration;
1816f743 124- charging station configuration templates;
170bec53 125- charging station authorization RFID tags lists.
2c28fc83 126
f80e9e18 127But 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.
