π Hyper-Local Logistics & Relay Optimizer
An advanced, end-to-end logistics orchestration platform designed to maximize truck utilization and driver efficiency. This project features a unique Driver Relay (Handshake) System and an automated, API-free e-Way Bill Generator.
π Key Features
π Driver Relay & Workload Balancing
Intelligent assignment logic based on custom business rules:
- Experience-Based Assignment: Automatically matches long-haul missions (e.g., >300km) with experienced drivers (high historical
totalDistanceKm). - Workload Balancing: Assigns shorter missions to newer drivers to ensure a fair and safe distribution of labor.
- ID Resolution: Dispatchers use "Human-Readable" identifiers like Phone Numbers and License Plates instead of complex Database UUIDs.
π€ Absorption Handshake System
A peer-to-peer "handover" mechanism allowing trucks to exchange goods at virtual hubs:
- Offline Verification: Supports a "Digital Handshake" via cryptographic QR codes for areas with zero cellular connectivity.
- Dual-Bill Updates: Automatically handles the transfer of responsibility between an "Exporter" driver and an "Importer" driver.
π Dynamic e-Way Bill Mimicry
Generates professional e-Way Bills using Node.js & Puppeteer:
- No External APIs: Mimics the official government layout purely via HTML/CSS.
- Auto-Data Resolution: Fetches GSTINs (Supplier/Recipient), License Plates, and Phone Numbers automatically from the database.
- Dual Generation: Produces two updated PDFs (for both trucks) instantly during an absorption event, delivered in a single
.zipfile.
ποΈ Technical Architecture
