Configurations vs Secrets vs Configuration Sets
Configurations are ‘modes’ to tweak the behavior of CartePlus. These configurations are set as key value pairs in app-settings of Azure App Services and Azure Function Apps.
Secrets are sensitive information like API keys, connection strings, API urls etc. These secrets are set as key value pairs in Azure Key Vault.
Configuration Sets are collections of configurations and secrets. E.g. Shastha
, Nbd
, Ups
, etc.
At runtime, all apps & microservices will have read-only access to these configurations & secrets (via CARTEPLUS_* environment variables).
Configurations
CartePlusEnableCosmosDbLogging
Value can be either true
or false
(default).
If set to true
, the CartePlus API and function app will log all CosmosDB operations to app insights (and console when running locally) .
CartePlusEnablePTLs
Value can be either true
or false
(default).
If set to true
, PTLs will be physically enabled for order fulfillment.
Note: This should be set to true
only when the PTLs are physically installed and configured: either in production environments (e.g. Shastha) or when testing with a digital/physical twin.
CartePlusFulfillmentMode
Value can be either batched
or discrete
(default).
In discrete
mode, CartePlus will process each order individually. E.g. During Shastha operations.
In batched
mode, CartePlus will coalesce orders, and issue picks based on SKU frequency. E.g. During GAP operations.
CartePlusLowInventoryTimerIntervalCron
The cron expression for the timer function that checks for low inventory.
Default value is 0 */15 * * * *
(every 15 minutes).
CartePlusDisplayTimeZone
The Time zone to use when displaying dates in the WebDebug tool.
Default value is Asia/Kolkata
.
CartePlusNumBots
The number of bots to be used for CartePlus operations.
Default value is 1
.
CartePlusOperationTATThresholdInSeconds
@TODO
CartePlusOrderTATThresholdInSeconds
@TODO
CartePlusPlcSimDisableBinPurgeAck
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be either true
(default) or false
.
A value of true
will disable the PLC Device Simulator from auto-acknowledging bin purges.
CartePlusPlcSimDisableDecommissionBinAck
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be either true
or false
(default).
A value of true
will disable the PLC Device Simulator from auto-acknowledging decommission bin requests.
CartePlusPlcSimDisablePickAck
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be either true
or false
(default).
A value of true
will disable the PLC Device Simulator from auto-acknowledging picks. The operator UI will have to be used instead for pick acknowledgements.
CartePlusPlcSimMaxDelayInSeconds
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be any positive integer (default is 5
).
This configuration is used to set the maximum delay (in seconds) for the PLC Device Simulator to wait before sending an acknowledgement to the PLC.
CartePlusPlcSimMinDelayInSeconds
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be any positive integer (default is 5
).
This configuration is used to set the minimum delay (in seconds) for the PLC Device Simulator to wait before sending an acknowledgement to the PLC.
CartePlusPlcSimPickTaskDurationInSeconds
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be any positive integer (default is 5
).
This configuration is used to simulate the duration (in seconds) of the pick tasks.
CartePlusPlcSimFaultMode
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be either true
or false
(default).
A value of true
generates faults to simulate PLC level failures. This is useful for testing the fault tolerance of the system - it generates PLC messages with ACK type ‘Abort’. The % of faults can be configured using CartePlusPlcSimFaultModePercentFailures
.
CartePlusPlcSimFaultModePercentFailures
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be any positive integer (default is 10
).
This configuration is used to set the % of faults generated by the PLC Device Simulator when CartePlusPlcSimFaultMode
is set to true
.
CartePlusPlcSimDisableInwardCompletion
This configuration is only used in the PLC Device Simulator.
Value can be either true
(default) or false
.
A value of true
will disable the PLC Device Simulator from auto-completing inward and replenishment tasks.
CartePlusPrinterMode
Value can be either DisablePrinting
(default) or EnablePrinting
.
Absence of this configuration is equivalent to DisablePrinting
.
This configuration is used to enable/disable printing of barcode labels, order pick-lists, etc.
CartePlusPtlTestMode
By default, this configuration is NOT set anywhere. During testing, you have to explicitly set this configuration in the PTL API.
If this configuration is set, the PTL API suppresses the routing of pick/inward/top-up tasks to the PTL devices, and instead just simulates response from the PTL devices.
Value can be one of:
AutoAck
: Simulates PTL buttons being pressed (ACK).AutoNack
: Simulates PTL button not being pressed (NACK).RandomizedAckNack
: Simulates PTL buttons being pressed (ACK) or not pressed (NACK) randomly.
CartePlusSkuFilePathFormat
The format of the SKU file path. The default value is Data/SKUsToImport.{0}.csv
.
