+# Access Point
+
+This service handles door card issuance and room ticket printing for hotels. It interacts with the card dispenser over serial, the Assa Abloy lock server, and prints receipts.
+
+## Deployment
+
+We use Salt for deployment. To build and deploy a new version:
+
+1. **Push your branch** with a meaningful commit message:  
+   ```bash
+   git push origin <branch>
+   ```
+2. **Tag and build**:  
+   ```bash
+   ./tagbuild.sh
+   ```
+   This script:  
+   - Builds the latest `hardlink.exe` binary  
+   - Tags the repository with the new version  
+   - Copies `hardlink_<tag>.exe` to `salt/hardlink/files`  
+3. **Commit the new binary** in Salt:  
+   ```bash
+   cd salt
+   git add hardlink/files/hardlink_<tag>.exe
+   git commit -m "added hardlink"
+   git push
+   ```
+4. **Update pillar** (`pillar/hardlink/init.sls`) to point to the new version.  
+5. **Apply the state** on your hosts:  
+   ```bash
+   salt '*' state.apply hardlink
+   ```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Place `config.yml` alongside `hardlink.exe`:
+
+```yaml
+port: 9091
+lockservUrl: "http://192.168.4.109:4000"
+encoderAddr: "1"
+dispensPort: "COM9"
+dispensAddr: "15"
+printerName: "EPSON TM-T82II Receipt"
+logdir: "./logs"
+```
+
+Provide `TicketLayout.xml` for print layout:
+
+```xml
+<LayoutOptions>
+  <LogoPath>C:/Logo/logo.png</LogoPath>
+  <TopMostText>Welcome to The Bike and Boot</TopMostText>
+  <BeforeRoomNumberText>Your room number is</BeforeRoomNumberText>
+  <BeforeDirectionsText></BeforeDirectionsText>
+  <HotelSpecificDetails>This is the hotel details section</HotelSpecificDetails>
+  <CheckOutTimeText>Check Out Time</CheckOutTimeText>
+  <RoomMapFolderPath>C:/Logo/Roommaps</RoomMapFolderPath>
+</LayoutOptions>
+```
+
+## Build & Run
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies
+go mod tidy
+
+# Build the executable
+go build -o hardlink.exe
+
+# Run
+./hardlink.exe
+```
+
+The HTTP server listens on `http://localhost:<port>` (default `9091`).
+

+    ```json
+    { "Code": <status>, "Message": "<error>" }
+    ```
+
+## Packages
+
+### `main`
+- Entry point: reads config, sets up logging, initializes dispenser and lock server, loads print layout, and starts HTTP server.
+
+### `dispenser`
+- Communicates with the card dispenser via serial port.
+- Commands: check status, move card, eject card.
+
+### `lockserver`
+- Manages TCP connection to the Assa Abloy lock server.
+- Sends heartbeat and encoding commands.
+
+### `printer`
+- Loads `TicketLayout.xml` into `LayoutOptions`.
+- Provides `printLogo`, `printMap`, `BuildRoomTicket`, `SendToPrinter`.
+- Converts images to ESC/POS raster commands with dithering and transparency support.
+
+### `cmstypes`
+- Defines JSON and XML payload structures for door cards and room details.
+
+## Logging
+
+Logs are written in JSON format to `<logdir>/hardlink.log`.
