Increase the power drawn in the ISO 15118-2 DC demo to 160 kW

[drmrd]

The current ISO 15118-2 DC demo includes a charger configured to provide power to a simulated EV at a rate of roughly 6 kW. These changes modify the charger configuration to up this rate to 160 kW, which is more representative of a typical DC fast charging session.

@drmrd does this actually work? I believe it required a change to the image for it to work, and I don't see any image changes here...

[drmrd]

@shankari: It does not without additional work. The user-config directory needs to be copied into manager during the build process.

@couryrr-afs: Can you push the manager update you refer to here that does this?

@drmrd should I be pushing a docker container? I can do so but it may become out of date if not automated with the CI/CD pipeline. I was having permission issues when doing attempting this previously.

[shankari]

@couryrr-afs as you can see from the current workflow, you should be able to rebuild containers by submitting a PR to a branch that starts with build_pkg. The CI/CD pipeline will build it in that case. https://github.com/US-JOET/everest-demo/blob/main/.github/workflows/cicd.yaml

I think we should revisit even the current cicd pipeline to tag the images by date/time instead of branch, so that we can keep a single build_pkg branch sitting around to rebuild containers. And over the long-term, the build should really happen in the individual repos. https://github.com/US-JOET/everest-demo-private/issues/16#issuecomment-1781556836

@drmrd and @shankari it looks like this will push an image to the US-JOET. If we are okay with that for the time being then after this PR action runs the new image should have what is needed in the manager. The issue I was referring to was permission based for pushing images.

As for the image versioning there are various build and tagging strategy that we can use. As the the CI/CD pipeline matures we can implement those.

Yes, as outlined in the issue https://github.com/US-JOET/everest-demo-private/issues/16, this is the current process. We do not want the perfect to be the enemy of the good.

after this PR action runs the new image should have what is needed in the manager.

To get the PR action to run, you will need to submit a PR to us-joet. Since this is a common theme across the PRs, I have created a new branch for this - build_pkg_task_1_features

The issue I was referring to was permission based for pushing images.

images created by github actions automatically have permissions for pushing images

As for the image versioning there are various build and tagging strategy that we can use. As the the CI/CD pipeline matures we can implement those.

Yes, there are various strategies. Can you open an issue and make a proposal on which one to use? The current flow works for the interim, but is clearly very clunky

~Waiting on an update with the correct manager Dockerfile and to set a correct image tag.~

@shankari: This should now be ready to be merged after #3. ETA: and #11.
