# Testing with EVerest
|
||||
|
||||
In the case you don't have a charger that supports OCPP 2.0.1 to experiment with, we can recommend using the Linux
|
||||
Foundation Energy project EVerest. [See here](https://github.com/EVerest) for the repository. They have built an open source version of
|
||||
charger firmware and also allow for using it as a simulator. They support OCPP 2.0.1 which makes it a great testing
|
||||
opportunity with CitrineOS. For the long route of setting up EVerst you can follow their documentation and build
|
||||
the project yourself. [See here for Docs](https://everest.github.io/latest/how-to-guides/getting-started/index.html)
|
||||
|
||||
# Running EVerest
|
||||
|
||||
In order to alleviate some of the complexities that may arise when starting EVerest, we have created
|
||||
some helpful commands that should help in getting the EVerest charger simulator running locally and targeting
|
||||
CitrineOS.
|
||||
|
||||
You will notice in the `apps/Server/everest` directory the files created to support running EVerest within Docker.
|
||||
In addition, we created some helpful package scripts (run from the `apps/Server` directory):
|
||||
|
||||
- `pnpm run start-everest` — starts EVerest for OCPP 2.x (defaults to `OCPP_VERSION=2.1`)
|
||||
- `pnpm run start-everest-16` — starts EVerest for OCPP 1.6
|
||||
|
||||
Both scripts `cd` into `everest` and trigger the `docker compose up` command (below) from within the
|
||||
`apps/Server/everest` directory so that it can pick up the `Dockerfile` and the `docker-compose.yml` files.
|
||||
|
||||
You will notice that there are two args that are configurable:
|
||||
|
||||
- `EVEREST_IMAGE_TAG` - The image tag that will be used for the EVerest image (ghcr.io/everest/everest-demo/manager).
|
||||
- `OCPP_VERSION` - The version of OCPP to run EVerest for. `start-everest` handles all 2.x versions for the given 2.x `OCPP_VERSION`, and `start-everest-16` is for OCPP 1.6 only.
|
||||
|
||||
After running `pnpm run start-everest` (or `pnpm run start-everest-16`), you should see 3 running EVerest containers
|
||||
and the `manager` container should have the appropriate EVerest logs.
|
||||
|
||||
### EVerest UI
|
||||
|
||||
Now that the 3 containers are running in Docker, you should be able to navigate to `[localhost|ip]:1880/ui/` to view
|
||||
the EVerest simulator UI. There, you should be able to simulate the pause/resume and plug/unplug events among others.
|
||||
|
||||
### EVerest NodeRed
|
||||
|
||||
You can also view the EVerest NodeRed UI `[localhost|ip]:1880/`, but it is not advisable to make any adjustments here
|
||||
unless you have a good understanding of this configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
### Viewing OCPP logs in EVerest
|
||||
|
||||
To view the OCPP logs in EVerest, we have utilized Node `http-server`, which you will see being initialized
|
||||
in the Dockerfile. We initialize a simple HTTP server on port `8888` and expose this port so that it is
|
||||
mapped in the compose file allowing you to navigate to `localhost:8888`. This HTTP server is configured to
|
||||
serve the contents of the `/tmp/everest_ocpp_logs` which is where EVerest stores the OCPP logs in the
|
||||
Docker container. Conveniently, the logs are in HTML format, so we can easily view them in the browser.
|
||||
|
||||
# Running EVerest Manually
|
||||
|
||||
You can also use their demo repository that hosts a Docker packaged EVerest image. [See here for Github Repo](https://github.com/EVerest/everest-demo)
|
||||
|
||||
To get EVerest running on the side while developing and making changes, you can follow the steps below.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run your CitrineOS instance locally with `docker compose up -d` in the CitrineOS repository.
|
||||
1. Clone the [EVerest Demo](https://github.com/EVerest/everest-demo) repository and `cd` into the repo.
|
||||
1. With CitrineOS running execute an "add charger" script at `./citrineos/add-charger.sh` This adds a charger, location and password for the charger to CitrineOS.
|
||||
1. Bring up EVerest with `docker compose --project-name everest-ac-demo --file "docker-compose.ocpp201.yml" up -d`.
|
||||
1. Copy over the appropriate device model with `docker cp manager/device_model_storage_citrineos_sp1.db \
|
||||
everest-ac-demo-manager-1:/ext/source/build/dist/share/everest/modules/OCPP201/device_model_storage.db`.
|
||||
1. Start EVerst having OCPP2.0.1 support with `docker exec everest-ac-demo-manager-1 sh /ext/source/build/run-scripts/run-sil-ocpp201.sh`.
