FlexOffer Manager (FMAN) - is a software system for aggregators, balance responsible parties (BRPs), micro-grid responsibles (MGRs) for managing (potentially large) collections of flexible electrical loads in the FlexOffer form. FMAN integrates advanced FlexOffer aggregation and disaggregation functionalities, optimization, as well as Graphical User Interface (GUI), which allows its users effectively and efficiently analyzing, trading, and shaping available flexibility in near real-time. The initial open-source version of the system was developed by researchers at the Daisy group, Aalborg University, Denmark. FMAN was successfully deployed and demonstrated in Cyprus, Germany, and Switzerland during the H2020 GOFLEX project.
In this reposity, you will be able to find the source code of the FMAN back-end and front-end sub-systems, installation and deployment instructions, and a user manual.
-
Configure JDK and Maven environments
-
Install, configure, and run a database management system, e.g., MySQL.
-
Update FMAN configuration file /fman-backend/src/main/resources/fman.properties. Specifically, "spring.datasource.url" datasource URL needs to be updated.
-
Go to to the root folder and run:
mvn clean compile package -
Run the FMAN back-end using the command:
java -jar fman-backend/target/fman-backend-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
-
Configure Node.js and the Node Package Manage (npm) tool
-
Go to the /fman-frontend/ and install all javascript dependencies using the comand:
npm install -
Run the front-end application using the command:
ng serve
sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.23.1/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
docker-compose --version- Attach/detach from container
# attach
docker attach container-name
# detach
CTRL+p CTRL+q- build and push all images (run this command from the directory containing
docker-compose.yml)
# build images
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.build.yml build
# push images to remote container registry
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.build.yml push
- remove multiple docker images matching a parttern/wildcard
docker rmi $(docker images | grep repo.treescale.com | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f 3)
- login to private container registry service
docker login repo.treescale.com- When you make changes to your app code, remember to rebuild your image and recreate your app’s containers. To redeploy a service called
web, use the following command the following commands. The first rebuilds the image for web and then stop, destroy, and recreate just the web service. The --no-deps flag prevents Compose from also recreating any services which web depends on.
docker-compose build --pull foa-app
docker-compose up --no-deps -d foa-app
