# Auracaster - Airport Announcement System
A modern web application for managing and broadcasting announcements throughout an airport. This system allows for quick and efficient communication with passengers in multiple areas and languages.
## Project Structure
The project is organized into three main packages:
- **auracaster_webui**: The Streamlit frontend application for the announcement system.
- **api_client**: Client library for communicating with the backend API.
- **mock_backend**: A mock implementation of the backend API for development and testing.
## Setup and Installation
### Development Setup
1. Create a virtual environment:
```
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
```
2. Install the package in development mode:
```
pip install -e .
```
3. Run the mock system (includes both frontend and backend):
```
auracaster-mock
```
4. For frontend only (requires a running backend):
```
auracaster-webui
```
## Docker
The project includes a Dockerfile for building a container that packages the webui and api_client components (without the mock backend).
Build the Docker image:
```
docker build -t auracaster:latest .
```
Run the container:
```
docker run -p 8501:8501 -e API_BASE_URL=http://backend-host:7999 auracaster:latest
```
## Environment Variables
- `API_BASE_URL`: URL of the backend API server (default: http://localhost:7999)
## Features
- Create, update, and delete endpoint groups
- Make announcements to specific areas of the airport
- Monitor announcement status in real-time
- Support for multiple languages
- Predefined announcement templates for common scenarios
