A dashboard for monitoring the ERPsim game from HEC Montreal.
It allows players to quickly analyze the data that is relevant for the game. The data is updated every 10 seconds.
A machine running Python3 is needed. Running the application in a virtual environemnt is highly recommended. Install the dependencies via
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Create a file named .env in the main folder. Put your credentials and server url in it.
SERVICEURL=put_the_url_from_the_sap_system
USERNAME=your_username
PASSWORD=your_password
You can find the URL in the OData-Service tab in the SAP system. It is the same one that is required to connect with Excel.
You can run the project via
python3 app.py
You will see your dashboard at http://127.0.0.1:8050/ in your browser.
In order to access the dashboard outside your local network, you need to deploy it. The easiest way and how it is configured currently is to use Heroku. It is free to use.
The way how to do it is documented here.
As the username and password are not exposed in the code, it is necessary to configure them as seen here.
The keys and values are the same as specified in 1. of this readme.
