41 ## Summary
42
43 Simple [node.js](https://nodejs.org/) software to simulate and scale a set of charging stations based on the OCPP-J protocol as part of [SAP e-Mobility](https://www.sap.com/products/scm/e-mobility.html) solution.
44
45 ## Installation
46
47 ### Prerequisites
48
49 Install the [node.js](https://nodejs.org/) current LTS or superior version runtime environment:
50
51 #### Windows
52
53 - [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/):
54
55 ```powershell
56 choco install -y nodejs
57 ```
58
59 #### MacOSX
60
61 - [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):
62
63 ```shell
64 brew install node
65 ```
66
67 #### GNU/Linux
68
69 - [NodeSource](https://github.com/nodesource/distributions) Node.js Binary Distributions for all supported versions.
70
71 #### Dependencies
72
73 Enable corepack if not already done and install latest pnpm version:
74
75 ```shell
76 corepack enable
77 corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate
78 ```
79
80 In the repository root, run the following command:
81
82 ```shell
83 pnpm install
84 ```
85
86 ## Initial configuration
87
88 Copy the configuration template file [src/assets/config-template.json](./src/assets/config-template.json) to [src/assets/config.json](./src/assets/config.json).
89 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).
90
91 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.
92
93 ## Start simulator
94
95 To start the program, run: `pnpm start`.
96
97 ## Start Web UI
98
99 See Web UI [README.md](./ui/web/README.md) for more information.
100
101 ## Configuration files syntax
102
103 All configuration files are using the JSON standard syntax.
104
105 **Configuration files locations**:
106
107 - charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](./src/assets/config.json);
108 - charging station configuration templates: [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates);
109 - charging station configurations: [dist/assets/configurations](./dist/assets/configurations);
110 - charging station RFID tags lists: [src/assets](./src/assets).
111
112 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).
113
114 All charging station configuration templates are in the directory [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates).
115
116 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).
117
118 **Configuration files hierarchy and priority**:
119
120 1. charging station configuration: [dist/assets/configurations](./dist/assets/configurations);
121 2. charging station configuration template: [src/assets/station-templates](./src/assets/station-templates);
122 3. charging stations simulator configuration: [src/assets/config.json](./src/assets/config.json).
123
124 The charging stations simulator has an automatic configuration files reload feature at change for:
125
126 - charging stations simulator configuration;
127 - charging station configuration templates;
128 - charging station authorization RFID tags lists.
129
130 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.

353 ### Charging station configuration
354
355 **dist/assets/configurations/\<hashId\>.json**:
356
357 The charging station configuration file is automatically generated at startup from the charging station configuration template file and is persistent.
358
359 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.
360
361 #### stationInfo section (optional)
362
363 The syntax is similar to charging station configuration template with some added fields like the charging station id (name) and the 'Configuration' section removed.
364
365 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
366
367 #### connectorsStatus section
368
369 The syntax is similar to charging station configuration template 'Connectors' section with some added fields.
370
371 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
372
373 #### evsesStatus section
374
375 The syntax is similar to charging station configuration template 'Evses' section with some added fields.
376
377 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
378
379 #### automaticTransactionGenerator section (optional)
380
381 The syntax is similar to the charging station configuration template 'AutomaticTransactionGenerator' section.
382
383 That section is overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
384
385 #### automaticTransactionGeneratorStatuses section
386
387 That section is not overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.
388
389 #### configurationKey section (optional)
390
391 The syntax is similar to the charging station configuration template 'Configuration' section.
392
393 That section is not overwritten on matching charging station configuration template file changes.

537 sequenceDiagram
538 Client->>UI Server: request
539 UI Server->>Client: response
540 Note over UI Server,Client: HTTP or Websocket
541 ```
542
543 ### Websocket Protocol
544
545 SRPC protocol over Websocket. PDU stands for 'Protocol Data Unit'.
546
547 - Request:
548 [`uuid`, `ProcedureName`, `PDU`]
549 `uuid`: String uniquely representing this request
550 `ProcedureName`: The procedure to run on the simulator
551 `PDU`: The parameters for said procedure
552
553 - Response:
554 [`uuid`, `PDU`]
555 `uuid`: String uniquely linking the response to the request
556 `PDU`: Response parameters to requested procedure
557
558 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.
559
560 #### Version 0.0.1
