# Packet Station

Digital job packets for the PESCO shop floor. A packet moves through each department on screen instead of on paper. VISUAL releases the work and Packet Station builds the packet with the drawing from M-Files at the rev the job pull calls. Clerical checks anything flagged. Warehouse pulls parts and records heat numbers, MTRs and shorts. A supervisor assigns a station and welder. The station logs welds on the weld map, works the checklist and runs the timer. The supervisor sends it to Q.C. Q.C. inspects, accepts or rejects, and adds reports. Clerical closes the job in VISUAL, exports the manufacturing data book PDF and files it. A change in VISUAL to a packet already in the shop goes to Clerical as a change order before it reaches the shop.

This repo is the rebuild of Packet Station as a server application: Docker Compose on `docker-1`, PostgreSQL 16, a Python server that enforces every rule, a worker for the VISUAL feed and M-Files drawing lookups, and a React frontend as a pure client. Sign-in is PESCO's Active Directory. VISUAL is read through VisualKit and M-Files through MFilesKit, read-only.

## Status

**Rebuild in progress. Phase 6 done: Q.C. inspection, accept and reject, Q.C. project folders, packet documents and the digital ITP.**

People can sign in, set up projects and units, make hand drafts, attach a drawing, and send a packet to the warehouse, a department or Q.C. The worker reads released work orders from VISUAL on a schedule, makes and updates drafts, opens change orders on packets already in the shop, looks drawings up in M-Files and attaches them at the rev VISUAL calls. Clerical sees it all on the From VISUAL panel and in the Flagged and Changes to approve columns; Admin sets the feed up on the Feed tab. Warehouse works its task board (waiting, being pulled, on hold, pulled, released), pulls parts line by line with heat numbers, shorts, receipts and MTRs, and releases to the supervisor once every line is pulled or short and every pulled line has a heat. A supervisor assigns the packet to a station and a welder, the welder starts the clock, marks welds on the drawing, places the heat table, finishes the checklist and submits with a PIN signature, and the supervisor sends it to Q.C. or routes it to another department with the marks carried. Department supervisors verify change orders with a signature. Q.C. inspects the packet on its own tab (the check items, a visual result per weld, NDE, hardness, notes), accepts it to the data book, to Shipping or on to another department with a PIN signature, or rejects it back to the supervisor with a reason or an NCR number. Q.C. keeps project folders of documents per project and unit (ITP, WPS / PQR, procedures, certificates) where a new revision supersedes the old one and nothing is deleted, adds reports to a packet for the data book and takes them out with a reason, and works each unit's digital ITP from the Q.C. template through line initials, N/A, rejects with NCR numbers, section block signatures and a sign-off. Open hold and witness points show as a warning on the unit's packets. Every packet write goes through the server policy. The old build on `M:\Production\Packet Station` stays the live system until go-live. The new system starts empty; nothing is migrated from M:.

## Phases

The full plan is in [docs/PLAN.md](docs/PLAN.md).

| 1 | Identity: AD sign-in, sessions, optional PIN, devices, signatures, audit, SSE, frontend shell and theme. |
| 2 | Core domain: schema, policy engine in Python, packet API, Clerical screen, packet page. |
| 3 | VISUAL feed and M-Files drawings in the worker, change orders, Clerical "From VISUAL" panel. |
| 4 | Warehouse: task board, pull table, heats, MTRs, shorts, upload pipeline. |
| 5 | Shop: supervisor and stall screens, weld map, heat table, timer, change-order verification. |
| 6 | Q.C.: inspection, accept and reject, Q.C. documents, digital ITP. |
| 7 | Close and file, HMAC seals, server-side PDFs (data book, traveler, ITP, prints, stamps). |
| 8 | Project Management screen, find bar, list view, presence. |
| 9 | Admin completion, AD reconcile, integrity job, notifications, backups and restore. |
| 10 | Regression bench, hardening, go-live and paper-fallback docs. |

Not in git: `.env`, `tests/fixtures/local/`, `reference/`, `recordings/`. Real job data stays out of git and CI.

## How to run

Developer machine:

```bash
python -m venv .venv
.venv\Scripts\python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
.venv\Scripts\python -m pytest
cd frontend && npm ci && npm run build
packetstation doctor
```

`visualkit` and `mfileskit` install from PESCO's Gitea index with `--index-url`. Everything else installs from public PyPI in a separate step. See [docs/DEPLOY.md](docs/DEPLOY.md).

Test stack on `docker-1`:

```bash
docker compose -p packetstation-test --env-file /etc/packetstation/test/stack.env \
  -f deploy/compose.yaml -f deploy/compose.proxy.yaml up -d
```

Phase 2 adds `/api/projects`, `/api/units`, `/api/packets` (header, transitions, work orders, pages, documents, BOM, shorts, welds, heat tags, heat table, stage, checklist, clock, warehouse stage, Q.C., change orders, log, seal), `/api/assets` and `/_blob/{id}`. Every packet read carries `can`, `blocked` and `holder` from the policy. See [docs/POLICY.md](docs/POLICY.md) and [docs/SCHEMA.md](docs/SCHEMA.md).

The `packetstation` command has `doctor`, `migrate`, `app`, `worker`, `job run <name>` (one job in the foreground), `fixtures use N` (switch the fixture state, never on prod), `ad-groups --list` (the 50 AD group names the app expects) and `ad-refresh` (create or refresh the users from the groups' members).

Phase 3 adds the worker (`packetstation worker`: APScheduler, the `visual-feed`, `drawing-lookup` and `housekeeping` jobs, settings re-read on every fire, run now through `job_requests`), the VISUAL and drawing cache tables (migration 0004), `/api/feed/*`, `/api/jobs/*`, `/api/admin/feed/*`, rev approval and hand uploads under `/api/packets/{id}`, and the synthetic fixture generator (`python -m tests.fixtures.generator --out DIR`) that CI feeds the worker with. See [docs/FEED.md](docs/FEED.md).

Phase 6 adds the Q.C. screen (`/qc`: numbers, boards, project folders), `GET /api/qc/home`, `GET /api/qc/folders` with the project and unit folder reads, `POST /api/qc/docs` (a new revision supersedes the old row), the per-key Q.C. endpoints under `/api/packets/{id}/qc`, document kinds as a closed set with take-out reasons, and the digital ITP under `/api/units/{id}/itp` and `/api/itps/{id}` (start, line sign and unsign, N/A, reject with NCR, block sign, sign-off, reopen, log). The ITP PDF filed on sign-off is a hook for phase 7. See [docs/POLICY.md](docs/POLICY.md) "Q.C. (phase 6)".

CI stack with the Samba domain controller and the Playwright scenario, on a Docker host:

```bash
deploy/ci/make-secrets.sh
docker compose -p packetstation-ci --env-file deploy/ci/ci.env -f deploy/compose.yaml -f deploy/compose.ci.yaml up -d --build --wait
docker compose -p packetstation-ci --env-file deploy/ci/ci.env -f deploy/compose.yaml -f deploy/compose.ci.yaml --profile e2e run --rm playwright
docker compose -p packetstation-ci --env-file deploy/ci/ci.env -f deploy/compose.yaml -f deploy/compose.ci.yaml down -v
```

Server tests that need PostgreSQL run when `TEST_PG_SUPERUSER_URL` is set; the ones that need the domain controller run when the `TEST_LDAP_*` variables and `TEST_DC_USERS_FILE` are set. See [deploy/samba/README.md](deploy/samba/README.md).
