A parking lot is one pool of spaces with a flexible set of entry/exit
points — no "lane". Direction is a property of each RELAY inside an access
controller; readers/cameras bind to a controller relay and inherit it.
Schema:
- drop `lane` from ledger_events, device_events, sessions
- rename lane_devices -> devices (no lane/direction columns)
- access config.relays=[{relay,direction,button?}]; reader/camera
config.controllerId+relay binding
- fresh 0000_baseline migration (history reset; dev data was throwaway)
Signed ledger:
- remove `lane` from canonicalize(); bump signer keyId sw-hmac-v1 -> v2
(v1 events won't verify under v2 — intentional, gated per-event by keyId)
Server:
- new device-resolve.ts (replaces lane-map.ts): relayForButton,
relayForDevice, firstRelayByDirection, devicesByDirection
- entry-flow: button terminal -> its relay; exit/permit: reader's bound
relay; dispatcher resolves the bound relay + inherited direction
- camera snapshots fire by direction site-wide, async, never block open
- DeviceConfig widened to nested JSON for relays[]
Web:
- wizard: no lane selector; add controllers (relay map + entry-button
terminal) first, then bind readers/cameras/printers to a controller relay
Wiki: new entry-exit-points.md (replaces lane-direction); reworked
entry-exit-readers, parking-session, first-run-setup, device-registry,
append-only-event-chain, device-events; removed stale lane/LaneMap mentions.

Device Registry (selectable drivers)
How the system goes from "device-agnostic in principle" (device-adapter-pattern) to "admin picks the device at setup" in practice. A registry holds a catalog of supported drivers, grouped by category; the first-run-setup UI reads it so an operator can choose a device and fill in its connection config.
Implementation-derived (from
packages/devices), not the source doc.
The four categories
| Category | Examples (drivers) | Interface |
|---|---|---|
| access | ZKTeco, ESP32 relay (also UHPPOTE) | AccessControlDevice — intent-only relay (barrier-not-a-door) |
| reader | Wiegand-into-controller, TCP/IP reader | ReaderDevice — RF/optical; two paths (entry-exit-readers) |
| camera | Hikvision, Dahua | CameraDevice — entry/exit snapshot-on-event |
| printer | (ticket dispenser / booth printer) | PrinterDevice |
How a driver is described
Each driver declares: a stable id, its category, a human label/description, the
transports it uses (tcp-ip, wiegand, …), a list of configFields (host, port,
credentials, selects — what the setup UI renders), and a create(config) factory that
validates config and returns a live adapter. Adding hardware support = registering one more
driver; no business-logic change — this is the device-adapter-pattern made selectable.
Why a registry (not hard-coded wiring)
- The admin chooses between multiple devices per category at install time (a controller's relays mix entry/exit; readers bind to them — see entry-exit-points, trust-boundary, entry-exit-readers).
- Config is validated against the driver's declared fields before persisting.
- Selections persist in the
devicestable and drive runtime adapter construction. - Drivers may optionally implement device-discovery (
discover()), so the admin can scan the LAN instead of typing connection details — no current driver uses it (the UHPPOTE did, before removal; the dingtian-relay uses a fixed IP).
Cameras are modelled as snapshot-on-event: the host requests an image at entry/exit; it's stored and referenced from the signed event as an independent record — a fraud-control input to the append-only-event-chain (cf. lpr-camera as the recognition-based identity source).
