Refine TallyFlow architecture to exactly 5 components

Browse Source 
- MongoDB nested inside Core (no longer 6th component)
- IoT → Core connection is dashed (optional)
- Print includes Print UI + Print API note
- Capture shown as native app (not Go/Vue)
- Core Web UI and Print UI as differentiated sub-boxes
- Strict focus on the 5 components: Core, Assets, Print, Capture, IoT

**Diagram:** [[TallyFlow-Architecture-Diagram.html]] **Diagram:** [[TallyFlow-Architecture-Diagram.html]]
## Overview (Source-Verified) ## Overview (5 Components)
TallyFlow's architecture is centered on **TallyFlow Core**, which serves as the single integration hub and owns the primary data store. TallyFlow is built around exactly **five primary components**, with **Core** as the central hub that owns the database.
**Core** consists of: ### 1. Core (Central)
- Go backend (API layer, business logic, using Echo/gRPC patterns) - Go backend + Vue.js Web UI
- Vue.js 2 web frontend (tallyflow-web) for asset management, reporting, and configuration - Owns MongoDB (assets, tags, photos, zones, events)
- MongoDB database (owned by Core) storing the asset registry, tags, photo metadata, zones, events, and audit history - Single API integration point for all other components
- Handles configuration, reporting, and orchestration
All other components communicate exclusively through Core's REST + WebSocket APIs. ### 2. Assets (Mobile)
- Flutter native mobile application
- Lightweight inventory, geiger-style seek & find, enrollment, zone moves
- Communicates with Core via REST/WebSocket API
**TallyFlow Assets (Mobile)** is a Flutter application focused on field operations: lightweight inventory, geiger-counter-style seek & find, fast enrollment, zone movements, and shipping workflows. It syncs with Core. ### 3. Print
- Flutter + Rust implementation
- Zebra ZPL-compatible label printing and RFID encoding
- Includes **Print UI** for configuration
- Can also be driven directly via the **Print API**
**TallyFlow Capture** (PhotoTag) is implemented as a Go microservice (photomicroservice) that handles photo + barcode association for quality control and visual documentation. It stores photo metadata in its own MongoDB collections but registers assets and events back to Core. ### 4. Capture (PhotoTag)
- Native mobile application (not Go/Vue)
- Associates photos with barcodes, work orders, and metadata
- Focused on quality control and visual documentation
- Sends data to Core via API
**TallyFlow Print** is a Flutter + Rust application that generates Zebra ZPL-compatible labels and RFID encodings, with optional auto-registration into Core. ### 5. IoT
- Rust-based service
- Integrates fixed RFID readers (Impinj, Zebra) and environmental sensors
- Pushes tag events and sensor data to Core (optional / dashed connection)
**IoT** is a Rust-based service (tallyflow-iot) that ingests data from fixed RFID readers (Impinj, Zebra) and environmental sensors, pushing real-time tag events and sensor data to Core. **MongoDB** is not a standalone component — it is fully owned and managed inside Core.
This structure was verified by inspecting the repositories in `~/src/` (tallyflow-web, photomicroservice, tallyflow-iot, tallyflow_mobile, tallyflow-print, etc.). ## Data Flows
- **Assets, Print, Capture** → Core: Solid lines (primary, always-available flows)
- **IoT → Core**: Dashed line (optional, event-driven)
- Core Web UI and Print UI are shown as sub-elements within their respective components
## Key Data Flows This structure was verified by reviewing the actual source repositories in `~/src/`. All external modules interact exclusively through Core’s API layer.
- **Assets (Mobile) ↔ Core**: Enrollment, inventory updates, seek/find sync via API
- **Capture → Core**: Photo metadata and QC records
- **Print → Core**: Print jobs and optional asset registration
- **IoT → Core**: Real-time tag/sensor events
- **Core ↔ MongoDB**: Core owns and directly manages all persistent data (assets, photos, zones, history)
- **Core Web UI (Vue.js)**: Operator interface for the full system
Core is the only component that directly owns the database. All other modules are clients or data producers that route through Core.
