The charging station theme
==========================
As you might have noticed, the charging station theme is complicated and large.
There are a ton of repititive questions. Luckily, we can generate those.
If you want to add a missing socket type, then:
- Add all the properties in 'types.csv'
- Add an icon. (Note: icons are way better as pictures as they are perceived more abstractly)
- Update 'license_info.json' with the copyright info of the new icon. Note that we strive to have Creative Commons icons
only (though there are exceptions)
At this point, most of the work should be done; feel free to send a PR. If you would like to test it locally first
(which is recommended) and have a working dev environment, then run:
- Run `ts-node csvToJson.ts` which will generate a new charging_station.json based on the protojson
- Run `npm run query:licenses` to get an interactive program to add the license of your artwork, followed
by `npm run generate:licenses`
- Run `npm run generate:layeroverview` to generate the layer files
- Run `npm run start` to run the instance
The CSV File
------------
The columns in the CSV file are:
- `key`: the key as described on the wiki, starts with `socket:`
- `image`: The associated image (a .svg)
- `description:en` A description in english
- `description:nl` A description in english
- `countryWhiteList`: Only show this plug type in these countries
- `countryBlackList`: Don't show this plug type in these countries. NOt compatibel with the whiteList
- `commonVoltages`, `commonCurrents`, `commonOutputs`: common values for these tags
- `associatedVehicleTypes` and `neverAssociatedWith`: these work in tandem to hide options. If every associated vehicle type
is `no`, then the option is hidden If at least one `neverAssociatedVehicleType` is `yes` and none of the associated
types is yes, then the option is hidden too
- `extraVisualisationCondition`: in some exceptional cases, a socket type is branded differently. This extra condition allows to hide these cases in the big multi-answer
