42 ## Installation
43
44 ### Prerequisites
45
46 Install the [node.js](https://nodejs.org/) current LTS or superior version runtime environment:
47
48 #### Windows
49
50 - [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/):
51
52 ```powershell
53 choco install -y nodejs
54 ```
55
56 #### MacOSX
57
58 - [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):
59
60 ```shell
61 brew install node
62 ```
63
64 #### GNU/Linux
65
66 - [NodeSource](https://github.com/nodesource/distributions) Node.js Binary Distributions for all supported versions.
67
68 #### Dependencies
69
70 Enable corepack if not already done and install latest pnpm version:
71
72 ```shell
73 corepack enable
74 corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate
75 ```
76
77 In the repository root, run the following command:
78
79 ```shell
80 pnpm install
81 ```
82
83 ## Initial configuration
84
85 Copy the configuration template file [src/assets/config-template.json](./src/assets/config-template.json) to [src/assets/config.json](./src/assets/config.json).
86 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).
87
88 Tweak them to your needs by following the section [configuration files syntax](./README.md#configuration-files-syntax): OCPP server supervision URL(s), charging station templates, etc.
89
90 ## Start simulator
91
92 To start the program, run: `pnpm start`.
93
94 ## Start Web UI
95
96 See Web UI [README.md](./ui/web/README.md) for more information.
97
98 ## Configuration files syntax
99
100 All configuration files are using the JSON standard syntax.
101
102 **Configuration files locations**:
103
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).
108
109 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).
110
111 All charging station configuration templates are in the directory [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates).
112
113 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).
114
115 **Configuration files hierarchy and priority**:
116
117 1. charging station configuration: [dist/assets/configurations](./dist/assets/configurations);
118 2. charging station configuration template: [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates);
119 3. charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](./src/assets/config.json).
120
121 The charging stations simulator has an automatic configuration files reload feature at change for:
122
123 - charging stations simulator configuration;
124 - charging station configuration templates;
125 - charging station authorization RFID tags lists.
126
127 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.

350 ### Charging station configuration
351
352 **dist/assets/configurations/\<hashId\>.json**:
353
354 The charging station configuration file is automatically generated at startup from the charging station configuration template file and is persistent.
355
356 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.
357
358 #### stationInfo section (optional)
359
360 The syntax is similar to charging station configuration template with some added fields like the charging station id (name) and the 'Configuration' section removed.
361
362 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
363
364 #### connectorsStatus section
365
366 The syntax is similar to charging station configuration template 'Connectors' section with some added fields.
367
368 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
369
370 #### evsesStatus section
371
372 The syntax is similar to charging station configuration template 'Evses' section with some added fields.
373
374 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
375
376 #### automaticTransactionGenerator section (optional)
377
378 The syntax is similar to the charging station configuration template 'AutomaticTransactionGenerator' section.
379
380 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
381
382 #### automaticTransactionGeneratorStatuses section
383
384 That section is not overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
385
386 #### configurationKey section (optional)
387
388 The syntax is similar to the charging station configuration template 'Configuration' section.
389
390 That section is not overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.

534 sequenceDiagram
535 Client->>UI Server: request
536 UI Server->>Client: response
537 Note over UI Server,Client: HTTP or Websocket
538 ```
539
540 ### Websocket Protocol
541
542 SRPC protocol over Websocket. PDU stands for 'Protocol Data Unit'.
543
544 - Request:
545 [`uuid`, `ProcedureName`, `PDU`]
546 `uuid`: String uniquely representing this request
547 `ProcedureName`: The procedure to run on the simulator
548 `PDU`: The parameters for said procedure
549
550 - Response:
551 [`uuid`, `PDU`]
552 `uuid`: String uniquely linking the response to the request
553 `PDU`: Response parameters to requested procedure
554
555 To learn how to use the Websocket protocol to pilot the simulator, an [Insomnia](https://insomnia.rest/) Websocket requests collection is available in [src/assets/ui-protocol](./src/assets/ui-protocol) directory.
556
557 #### Version 0.0.1
558
559 Set the Websocket header _Sec-Websocket-Protocol_ to `ui0.0.1`.
