  1. Run this in your app folder. It adds the module with the package it needs, registers it and creates its database tables.

    yarn add @freighttech/ui@0.14.9 && yarn mercato module add @freighttech/shipment-tracking@0.7.2 --allow-third-party && yarn generate && yarn db:migrate

    Or with create-mercato-module:

    yarn add @freighttech/ui@0.14.9 && npx create-mercato-module install @freighttech/shipment-tracking@0.7.2 && yarn generate && yarn db:migrate
  2. In the admin, open Roles (/backend/roles) and give its 14 permissions to the roles that need them.

  3. Restart the app.

Readme

This is the author's README. To install, use the steps in Install.

The catalog tests those steps. Install notes in the README may be out of date.

@freighttech/shipment-tracking

Carrier shipment tracking for the Open Mercato platform — DCSA carrier adapters (Maersk, MSC, CMA CGM, Hapag-Lloyd, ZIM, COSCO, Evergreen), a ShipsGo aggregator fallback, a Journey Timeline, and an optional live vessel/POI map.

Most integration credentials are configured in the UI (Backend → Śledzenie przesyłek → Autoryzacja śledzenia): per-carrier auth, the ShipsGo token, and the BIC facility API. The settings below are deployment/environment config, supplied as environment variables.

Show the full README

Environment variables

Vessel map (ships map / vessel trace / POI overlay)
VariableRequiredDefaultDescription
NEXT_PUBLIC_VESSEL_API_URLFor the vessel map only_none_Base URL of the vessel-tracking API that powers fetchVessel / fetchVesselTrace / fetchPois (the ships-map widget, vessel trace, and POI overlay). It is a NEXT_PUBLIC_* value inlined into the client bundle at build time. When unset, those map features throw "Vessel API is not configured" and are effectively disabled; the rest of the module works normally.
POI proximity events (optional AIS → Journey Timeline crossings)

Consumed by the separate long-running worker mercato shipment_tracking poi:worker, which subscribes to an AIS proximity event stream over NATS JetStream. If you don't run that worker, none of these are needed. Changes take effect when the worker (re)starts.

VariableRequiredDefaultDescription
POI_NATS_URLTo enable POI ingestion_none_NATS server URL (e.g. nats://localhost:4222). POI ingestion is enabled only when this is set — unset means the worker skips POI subscription.
POI_NATS_STREAMNoAIS_STREAMJetStream stream name to consume from.
POI_NATS_SUBJECTNoais.ship.proximity.eventsSubject filter for POI proximity events.
POI_NATS_INSTANCE_IDNoderived from JWT_SECRET (else random)Unique per-installation id. The durable consumer is shipment-tracking-poi-{instanceId}, so multiple self-hosted instances each receive all messages independently.
JWT_SECRETNo (platform var)_none_Reused only to derive a stable POI_NATS_INSTANCE_ID when that isn't set explicitly. Without either, a random (non-stable) instance id is used and a warning is logged.

Run the worker with:

POI_NATS_URL=nats://localhost:4222 yarn mercato shipment_tracking poi:worker
ShipsGo (aggregator fallback)

The ShipsGo token and base URL are normally configured in the UI. As a fallback, SHIPSGO_API_TOKEN and SHIPSGO_BASE_URL (default https://api.shipsgo.com/v2) are read from the environment when no UI config is present.

    In a new app from the default preset, the module adds the backend route /backend/webhooks, which the webhooks module (@open-mercato/webhooks) already has.

    1. [generate] Duplicate backend route pattern "/backend/webhooks" generated by modules "webhooks" and "shipment_tracking". Each backend page must resolve to a unique URL - nest the page under a module-specific folder (e.g. backend/shipment_tracking/...) so it does not silently shadow another module.
    2. ❌ Module command failed: Module "shipment_tracking" is enabled, but generated artifacts are stale because generation failed. Rerun "yarn mercato generate" after fixing the underlying error.
