# Charging Stations in Slovenia



This repository contains a Java program that fetches a list of charging stations available in Slovenia from various

providers and creates a new file with newly added charging stations. The program is designed to run on a schedule via

cron job on my personal

server, checking for any changes in the number of stations every few hours. If there are any new or removed stations, a

new file is generated and pushed to the correct directory and then of course uploaded to this repository so users have

an insight of how

often new charging stations are added in Slovenia by each provider.



Currently, the program checks for updates from the following charging providers:



- [Gremo Na Elektriko](https://www.gremonaelektriko.si)

- [Petrol / One Charge](https://www.petrol.si/mobilnost/zasebni-uporabniki/javne-elektricne-polnilnice)

- [Moon Charge](https://www.vrhunskaemobilnost.si/moon-charge/)

- [Avant2Go](https://avant2go.si) (This charging stations are private and available only for Avant2Go customers!)

- [MOL Plungee](https://molplugee.si/si) (Currently not implemented, still using Google Scripts to fetch new data)

- [eFrend](https://efrend.si/SI)

- [MegaTel](https://www.megatel.si/mobility)

- [Implera](http://napolni.me)



In addition, an email notification is sent out whenever a new station is added to the list. This is used for me so when

a new station is added I can publish it to PlugShare as soon as possible

This repository is intended to provide an up-to-date and accurate list of newly added charging stations for electric

vehicle owners in Slovenia. The program can also be easily modified to include additional providers or to be used in

other countries.



Overall, the Charging Stations in Slovenia repository is a valuable resource for electric vehicle owners in Slovenia,

providing a convenient and easy way to access the latest information about what charging stations were recently added in

the country.



### How it works



The program fetches the list of charging stations from each implemented provider from their API. Saves it to POJO, and

then compares IDs from the ones that are stored in `currentInfoPerProvider.json` file (Why use a database if you have

json 🤣). if a change is detected, a new file is generated and stored in the corresponding folder with a specific

filename: `Provider_timestamp.json`. The timestamp is in the following format: `[email protected]`. When a new file is

generated and `currentInfoPerProvider.json` is updated program will commit changes to this repository.



### How can you help?



If you wish you can optimize the code, check for bugs and add new providers, open an issue, and we'll discuss it. That's

why it's open source.



### Configuration



To make sure this program runs on your computer, make sure you have `currentInfoPerProvider.json` file, and you

configure `configuration.properties`. You can look at the example file in this repo. Otherwise, there should be no

problems with running this. If you want to generate `.jar` file, use maven command `mvn package`, and you'll

have `Charging-Stations-in-Slovenia.jar` file in the target folder
