MeNUS - Developer Guide

By: Team CS2103-AY1819S1-F10-4      Since: Sep 2018      Licence: MIT

1. Welcome to MeNUS

This Developer Guide is written by the MeNUS v1.4 team for the benefits of future developers and maintainers of the application.

  • This guide includes instructions for setting up the development environment.

  • This guide provides sufficient UMLs (unified model diagrams) to illustrate the architectural structure and design methodology.

  • This guide offers advice for troubleshooting some common issues.

MeNUS is an open-source project. If you are interested in contributing, see the Contact Us page for more information.

1.1. Legend

The following 3 callouts will be used throughout the documentation which you may wish to pay attention to as it may contain important details:

ℹ️
Just for your info, do not be alarmed. Be sure to read these notes as it might contain some important information.
💡
Perhaps something can be done using another approach, but it is up to you to decide. Tips are often not important and can be safely ignored.
⚠️
Some things might go wrong if you are not careful, or did not follow the instructions correctly. You are strongly advised to read whatever is in this block.

2. Setting up

Follow this setup guide to get MeNUS up and running on your computer.

2.1. Prerequisites

  1. JDK 9

    ⚠️
    JDK 10 on Windows will fail to run tests in headless mode due to a JavaFX bug. Windows developers are highly recommended to use JDK 9 which can be downloaded here
  2. IntelliJ IDE

    ℹ️
    IntelliJ by default has Gradle and JavaFX plugins installed.
    Do not disable them. If you have disabled them, go to File > Settings > Plugins to re-enable them

2.2. Setting up the project in your computer

  1. Fork this repo, and clone the fork to your computer

  2. Open IntelliJ (if you are not in the welcome screen, click File > Close Project to close the existing project dialog first)

  3. Set up the correct JDK version for Gradle

    1. Click Configure > Project Defaults > Project Structure

    2. Click New…​ and find the directory of the JDK

  4. Click Import Project

  5. Locate the build.gradle file and select it. Click OK

  6. Click Open as Project

  7. Click OK to accept the default settings

  8. Open a console and run the command gradlew processResources (Mac/Linux: ./gradlew processResources). It should finish with the BUILD SUCCESSFUL message.
    This will generate all resources required by the application and tests.

  9. Open XmlAdaptedAccount.java and MainWindow.java and check for any code errors

    1. Due to an ongoing issue with some of the newer versions of IntelliJ, code errors may be detected even if the project can be built and run successfully

    2. To resolve this, place your cursor over any of the code section highlighted in red. Press ALT+ENTER, and select Add '--add-modules=…​' to module compiler options for each error

  10. Repeat this for the test folder as well (e.g. check XmlUtilTest.java and HelpWindowTest.java for code errors, and if so, resolve it the same way)

2.3. Verifying the setup

  1. Run the seedu.restaurant.MainApp and try a few commands.

  2. Run the tests to ensure they all pass.

2.4. Configurations to do before writing code

2.4.1. Configuring the coding style

This project follows oss-generic coding standards. IntelliJ’s default style is mostly compliant with ours but it uses a different import order from ours. To rectify:

  1. Go to File > Settings…​ (Windows/Linux), or IntelliJ IDEA > Preferences…​ (macOS)

  2. Select Editor > Code Style > Java

  3. Click on the Imports tab to set the order

    • For Class count to use import with '*' and Names count to use static import with '*': Set to 999 to prevent IntelliJ from contracting the import statements

    • For Import Layout: The order is import static all other imports, import java.*, import javax.*, import org.*, import com.*, import all other imports. Add a <blank line> between each import

Optionally, you can follow the UsingCheckstyle.adoc document to configure Intellij to check style-compliance as you write code.

2.4.2. Setting up CI

Set up Travis to perform Continuous Integration (CI) for your fork. See UsingTravis.adoc to learn how to set it up.

After setting up Travis, you can optionally set up coverage reporting for your team fork (see UsingCoveralls.adoc).

ℹ️
Coverage reporting could be useful for a team repository that hosts the final version but it is not that useful for your personal fork

Optionally, you can set up AppVeyor as a second CI (see UsingAppVeyor.adoc).

ℹ️
Having both Travis and AppVeyor ensures your App works on both Unix-based platforms and Windows-based platforms (Travis is Unix-based and AppVeyor is Windows-based)

2.4.3. Getting started with coding

When you are ready to start coding,

  1. Get some sense of the overall design by reading Section 3.1, “Architecture”.

2.5. Using Git with Sourcetree

We use Git with Sourcetree for distributed source control. See UsingGit.adoc if you find any difficulty when using Git with Sourcetree.

3. Design

3.1. Architecture

Architecture

Figure 3.1.1: Architecture Diagram

The Architecture Diagram given above explains the high-level design of the App. Given below is a quick overview of each component.

💡
The .pptx files used to create diagrams in this document can be found in the diagrams folder. To update a diagram, modify the diagram in the pptx file, select the objects of the diagram, and choose Save as picture.

Main has only one class called MainApp. It is responsible for,

  • At app launch: Initializes the components in the correct sequence, and connects them up with each other.

  • At shut down: Shuts down the components and invokes cleanup method where necessary.

Commons represents a collection of classes used by multiple other components. Two of those classes play important roles at the architecture level.

  • EventsCenter : This class (written using Google’s Event Bus library) is used by components to communicate with other components using events (i.e. a form of Event Driven design)

  • LogsCenter : Used by many classes to write log messages to the App’s log file.

The rest of the App consists of four components.

  • UI: The UI of the App.

  • Logic: The command executor.

  • Model: Holds the data of the App in-memory.

  • Storage: Reads data from, and writes data to, the hard disk.

Each of the four components

  • Defines its API in an interface with the same name as the Component.

  • Exposes its functionality using a {Component Name}Manager class.

For example, the Logic component (see the class diagram given below) defines it’s API in the Logic.java interface and exposes its functionality using the LogicManager.java class.

LogicClassDiagram

Figure 3.1.2: Class Diagram of the Logic Component

Events-Driven nature of the design

The Sequence Diagram below shows how the components interact for the scenario where the user issues the command delete 1.

SDforDeleteItem

Figure 3.1.3: Component interactions for delete 1 command (part 1)

ℹ️
Note how the Model simply raises a RestaurantBookChangedEvent when the Restaurant Book data are changed, instead of asking the Storage to save the updates to the hard disk.

The diagram below shows how the EventsCenter reacts to that event, which eventually results in the updates being saved to the hard disk and the status bar of the UI being updated to reflect the 'Last Updated' time.

SDforDeleteItemEventHandling

Figure 3.1.4: Component interactions for delete 1 command (part 2)

ℹ️
Note how the event is propagated through the EventsCenter to the Storage and UI without Model having to be coupled to either of them. This is an example of how this Event Driven approach helps us reduce direct coupling between components.

The sections below give more details of each component.

3.2. UI component

UiClassDiagram

Figure 3.2.1: Structure of the UI Component

API : Ui.java

The UI consists of a MainWindow that is made up of parts e.g.CommandBox, ResultDisplay, AccountListPanel, StatusBarFooter, DetailPanel etc. All these, including the MainWindow, inherit from the abstract UiPart class.

The UI component uses JavaFx UI framework. The layout of these UI parts are defined in matching .fxml files that are in the src/main/resources/view folder. For example, the layout of the MainWindow is specified in MainWindow.fxml

The UI component,

  • Executes user commands using the Logic component.

  • Binds itself to some data in the Model so that the UI can auto-update when data in the Model change.

  • Responds to events raised from various parts of the App and updates the UI accordingly.

3.3. Logic component

LogicClassDiagram

Figure 3.3.1: Structure of the Logic Component

API : Logic.java

  1. Logic uses the RestaurantBookParser class to parse the user command.

  2. This results in a Command object which is executed by the LogicManager.

  3. The command execution can affect the Model (e.g. adding an account) and/or raise events.

  4. The result of the command execution is encapsulated as a CommandResult object which is passed back to the Ui.

Given below is the Sequence Diagram for interactions within the Logic component for the execute("register id/azhikai pw/1122qq") API call.

RegisterAccountSdForLogic

Figure 3.3.2: Interactions Inside the Logic Component for the delete 1 Command

3.4. Model component

ModelClassBetterOopDiagram

Figure 3.4.1: Structure of the Model Component

API : Model.java

The Model,

  • stores a UserPref object that represents the user’s preferences.

  • stores the Restaurant Book data.

  • exposes data via an unmodifiable ObservableList that can be 'observed' e.g. the UI can be bound to this list so that the UI automatically updates when the data in the list change.

  • does not depend on any of the other three components.

3.5. Storage component

StorageClassDiagram

Figure 3.5.1: Structure of the Storage Component

API : Storage.java

The Storage component,

  • can save UserPref objects in json format and read it back.

  • can save the Restaurant Book data in xml format and read it back.

3.6. Common classes

Classes used by multiple components are in the seedu.restaurant.commons package.

4. Implementation

This section describes some noteworthy details on how certain features are implemented.

4.1. Undo/Redo feature

4.1.1. Current Implementation

The undo/redo mechanism is facilitated by VersionedRestaurantBook. It extends RestaurantBook with an undo/redo history, stored internally as an restaurantBookStateList and currentStatePointer. Additionally, it implements the following operations:

  • VersionedRestaurantBook#commit() — Saves the current restaurant book state in its history.

  • VersionedRestaurantBook#undo() — Restores the previous restaurant book state from its history.

  • VersionedRestaurantBook#redo() — Restores a previously undone restaurant book state from its history.

These operations are exposed in the Model interface as Model#RestaurantBook(), Model#undoRestaurantBook() and Model#redoRestaurantBook() respectively.

Given below is an example usage scenario and how the undo/redo mechanism behaves at each step.

Step 1. The user launches the application for the first time. The VersionedRestaurantBook will be initialized with the initial restaurant book state, and the currentStatePointer pointing to that single restaurant book state.

UndoRedoStartingStateListDiagram

Step 2. The user executes deregister id/azhikai command to delete the account with the username of azhikai from the restaurant book. The deregister command calls Model#commitRestaurantBook(), causing the modified state of the restaurant book after the deregister id/azhikai command executes to be saved in the restaurantBookStateList, and the currentStatePointer is shifted to the newly inserted restaurant book state.

UndoRedoNewCommand1StateListDiagram

Step 3. The user executes register id/azhikai …​ to add a new account. The register command also calls Model#commitRestaurantBook(), causing another modified restaurant book state to be saved into the restaurantBookStateList.

UndoRedoNewCommand2StateListDiagram
ℹ️
If a command fails its execution, it will not call Model#commitRestaurantBook(), so the restaurant book state will not be saved into the restaurantBookStateList.

Step 4. The user now decides that adding the account was a mistake, and decides to undo that action by executing the undo command. The undo command will call Model#undoRestaurantBook(), which will shift the currentStatePointer once to the left, pointing it to the previous restaurant book state, and restores the restaurant book to that state.

UndoRedoExecuteUndoStateListDiagram
ℹ️
If the currentStatePointer is at index 0, pointing to the initial restaurant book state, then there are no previous restaurant book states to restore. The undo command uses Model#canUndoRestaurantBook() to check if this is the case. If so, it will return an error to the user rather than attempting to perform the undo.

The following sequence diagram shows how the undo operation works:

UndoRedoSequenceDiagram

Figure 4.1.1.1: Structure of the Storage Component

The redo command does the opposite — it calls Model#redoRestaurantBook(), which shifts the currentStatePointer once to the right, pointing to the previously undone state, and restores the restaurant book to that state.

ℹ️
If the currentStatePointer is at index restaurantBookStateList.size() - 1, pointing to the latest restaurant book state, then there are no undone restaurant book states to restore. The redo command uses Model#canRedoRestaurantBook() to check if this is the case. If so, it will return an error to the user rather than attempting to perform the redo.

Step 5. The user then decides to execute the command list. Commands that do not modify the restaurant book, such as list, will usually not call Model#commitRestaurantBook(), Model#undoRestaurantBook() or Model#redoRestaurantBook(). Thus, the restaurantBookStateList remains unchanged.

UndoRedoNewCommand3StateListDiagram

Step 6. The user executes clear, which calls Model#commitRestaurantBook(). Since the currentStatePointer is not pointing at the end of the restaurantBookStateList, all restaurant book states after the currentStatePointer will be purged. We designed it this way because it no longer makes sense to redo the add n/David …​ command. This is the behavior that most modern desktop applications follow.

UndoRedoNewCommand4StateListDiagram

The following activity diagram summarizes what happens when a user executes a new command:

UndoRedoActivityDiagram

4.1.2. Design Considerations

Aspect: How undo & redo executes
  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Saves the entire restaurant book.

    • Pros: Easy to implement.

    • Cons: May have performance issues in terms of memory usage.

  • Alternative 2: Individual command knows how to undo/redo by itself.

    • Pros: Will use less memory (e.g. for deregister, just save the account being deleted).

    • Cons: We must ensure that the implementation of each individual command are correct.

Aspect: Data structure to support the undo/redo commands
  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Use a list to store the history of restaurant book states.

    • Pros: Easy for new Computer Science student undergraduates to understand, who are likely to be the new incoming developers of our project.

    • Cons: Logic is duplicated twice. For example, when a new command is executed, we must remember to update both HistoryManager and VersionedRestaurantBook.

  • Alternative 2: Use HistoryManager for undo/redo

    • Pros: We do not need to maintain a separate list, and just reuse what is already in the codebase.

    • Cons: Requires dealing with commands that have already been undone: We must remember to skip these commands. Violates Single Responsibility Principle and Separation of Concerns as HistoryManager now needs to do two different things.

4.2. User account feature

4.2.1. Current Implementation

The user account mechanism is facilitated by RestaurantBook. Additionally, it implements the following operations:

  • RestaurantBook#getAccount(Account) — Retrieves the account.

  • RestaurantBook#addAccount(Account) — Saves the new account.

  • RestaurantBook#updateAccount(Account, Account) — Update the existing account.

  • RestaurantBook#removeAccount(Account) — Removes the account.

These operations are exposed in the Model interface as Model#getAccount(Account), Model#addAccount(Account), Model#updateAccount(Account, Account) and Model#removeAccount(Account). The following commands will invoke the aforementioned operations:

  • Command#LoginCommand() — Invokes Model#getAccount(Account).

  • Command#RegisterCommand() — Invokes Model#addAccount(Account).

  • Command#DeregisterCommand() — Invokes Model#removeAccount(Account).

  • Command#ChangePasswordCommand() — Invokes Model#updateAccount(Account, Account).

Given below are example usage scenarios and how each of the command and its respective operations behave at each step which involves two components, Logic which is responsible for parsing the user input and Model which is responsible for manipulating the list, if necessary. Both components are extended by LogicManager and ModelManager respectively.

The following sequence diagram shows how the register command works:

RegisterSequenceDiagram

Figure 4.2.1.1: Sequence diagram to illustrate component interactions for the register command

ℹ️
  • We assume the user is already logged in to an account with appropriate privilege level (e.g. Administrator)

  • If the username already exists, a warning message will be shown to the user to select another username

  • The deregister command works the same way by checking if the account exists before calling Model#removeAccount(Account)

Step 1. The user executes register id/azhikai pw/1122qq n/Ang Zhi Kai command to create a new user account.

Step 2. LogicManager invokes the RestaurantBookParser#parseCommand() method which takes in the user input as arguments.

Step 3. When the command is parsed, the Command#RegisterCommand() will be created which is returned to the LogicManager.

Step 4. LogicManager invokes the execute() method of the Command#RegisterCommand(), rc which is instantiated in Step 3. The Model component will be involved as the Command#RegisterCommand() invokes a request to add the account into the storage by calling Model#addAccount(Account).

Step 5: The new account is added into the storage. Then, a CommandResult is generated and returned to LogicManager which is used to display the result to the user.

The following sequence diagram shows how the login command works:

LoginSequenceDiagram

Figure 4.2.1.2: Sequence diagram to illustrate component interactions for the login command

ℹ️
We assume the user will enter the correct password. Otherwise, warning message will be shown to the user to re-enter the credential

Step 1. The user executes login id/azhikai pw/1122qq command to login to an existing user account.

Step 2. LogicManager invokes the RestaurantBookParser#parseCommand() method which takes in the user input as arguments.

Step 3. When the command is parsed, the Command#LoginCommand() will be created which is returned to the LogicManager.

Step 4. LogicManager invokes the execute() method of the Command#LoginCommand(), lc which is instantiated in Step 3. The Model component will be involved as the Command#LoginCommand() invokes a request to retrieve an account based on the username. If it exists, the account will be retrieved and the password hash will be compared. If it matches, then the credential is valid and the user is authenticated.

The following activity diagrams summarize how password is processed during the login and registration process:

PasswordLoginActivityDiagram

Figure 4.2.1.3: Activity diagram to illustrate how password is processed for the login command

PasswordHashActivityDiagram

Figure 4.2.1.4: Activity diagram to illustrate how password is processed for the register command

4.2.2. Design Considerations

Aspect: How password is secured
  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Use username to generate cryptographic salt.

    • Rationale: If we allow the bcrypt library to generate the salt, testing ability will be limited as the salt is generated based on system time by default. This means that despite testing the same account with the same raw password, its equality will never match. Hence, a workaround is to generate the salt based on its username which is unique to each account.

    • Pros: Easy to implement and improves testing ability.

    • Cons: If an attacker knows how the salt is generated, it could pose a security risk.

  • Alternative 2: Use salt generated by the bcrypt library with high cost factor.

    • Pros: Higher cost factor makes hashing of the password harder. Ideally, the cost factor should as high as the system can tolerate, given the other tasks the system must otherwise fulfill.

    • Cons: More processing resources used and existing test cases must be updated.

4.3. User session feature

4.3.1. Current Implementation

ℹ️

If a privileged command is executed when a session is not set, an error will be shown. For more information on which commands are guest-executable, see the UserGuide.adoc for more information

The application’s user session state is facilitated by UserSession. This is triggered by raising a Login or Logout event upon executing the Command#LoginCommand() or Command#LogoutCommand() respectively.

Additionally, it implements the following static operations:

  • UserSession#create(Account) — Set a user session.

  • UserSession#destroy() — Removes the existing user session.

  • UserSession#update(Account) — Updates the existing user session.

  • UserSession#isAuthenticated() — Checks if there is an existing login session.

The following activity diagram summarizes how the user session is modified when a user logs in or out:

UserSessionActivityDiagram

Figure 4.3.1.1: Activity diagram to illustrate the user session

The following code snippet demonstrates how these static methods are implemented:

/**
 * Stores this {@link Account} info as part of this session.
 *
 * @param account logged in for this session.
 */
public static void create(Account acc) {
    if (!isAuthenticated) {
        isAuthenticated = true;
        account = acc;
    }
}

/**
 * Logs out of this account which releases this session.
 */
public static void destroy() {
        isAuthenticated = false;
        account = null;
}

/**
 * Updates the session with the new account info, such as updating of account password.
 *
 * @param acc that has been updated.
 */
public static void update(Account acc) {
    if (isAuthenticated) {
        account = acc;
    }
}

4.3.2. Design Considerations

Aspect: How user session is handled
  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Use static flags and methods.

    • Pros: Easy to implement, given the constraints.

    • Cons: Can only support one user at any time. If another user wants to login, the current logged in user must log out. In addition, since it is a global class object, test cases may be affected when testing both guest and privileged commands which requires user to be logged out and logged in respectively.

  • Alternative 2: Store a list of user sessions to allow multiple login.

    • Pros: More user can login and manage the systems concurrently. Potentially able to resolve the global dependency of the current solution which might affect the test ability.

    • Cons: More memory usage to track each user session as the application scales with more users.

4.4. Auto-ingredient update feature

The auto-ingredient update mechanism is facilitated by RecordSalesCommand and triggers whenever the "record-sales" command is invoked. A SalesRecord will be instantiated based on the information given and attempts to compute the ingredients used before deducting them from the ingredient list automatically.

4.4.1. Current Implementation

A SalesRecord is associated with 6 attributes - Date, ItemName, QuantitySold, Price, Revenue and IngredientUsed.
The success of the auto-ingredient update mechanism is subjected to the following conditions:

1) ItemName exists in the Menu.
2) The required ingredients to make one unit of ItemName is specified in the Menu.
3) The required ingredients exist in the Ingredient list.
4) There are sufficient ingredients to make QuantitySold units of ItemName in the Ingredient list.

ℹ️
If any of the above conditions are not satisfied, sales volume will be recorded without updating the ingredient list
ℹ️
If conditions 1 and 2 are satisfied, RecordSalesCommand will compute all the ingredients used and store the data in IngredientUsed attribute of SalesRecord

This mechanism is aided by methods from the Menu and Ingredient components, all of which are exposed in the Model interface. Given below is an example scenario and how the auto-ingredient update mechanism behaves at each step.

Step 1. The user executes record-sales d/11-01-2018 n/Fried Rice q/35 p/5.50 command to record the sales volume of Fried Rice on 11-01-2018. A SalesRecord would be instantiated based on the command arguments given.

Step 2. RecordSalesCommand will request for the item Fried Rice from Menu. This is done through the Item findItem (Name) method given in Menu component. This also checks if condition 1 is satisfied.

Step 3. RecordSalesCommand then proceeds to request for the required ingredients to make a unit of Fried Rice from Menu. This is done through the Map<IngredientName, Integer> getRequiredIngredients(Item) method given in Menu. This also checks if condition 2 is satisfied.

Step 4. With the required ingredients per unit data now at hand, RecordSalesCommand will compute the total ingredients used in making 35 units of Fried Rice. The IngredientUsed attribute in SalesRecord will then be updated.

Step 5. RecordSalesCommand will then pass the computed IngredientUsed to Ingredient component to request for an update of ingredients. This is done through the void consumeIngredients(Map<IngredientName, Integer>) method given in Ingredient component. This checks for condition 3 & 4.

Step 6. The SalesRecord is then finally added into UniqueRecordList via the void addRecord(SalesRecord) method given in Sales component of Model.

ℹ️
An exception will be thrown in step 2, 3 or 5 should the conditions be violated. In such scenario, RecordSalesCommand will jump to step 6 instantly and omit the remaining steps

The following activity diagram (Figure 4.4.1.1) summarizes what happens when a user executes record-sales command:

RecordSalesActivityDiagram

Figure 4.4.1.1: Activity Diagram for record-sales command

4.4.2. Design Considerations

Aspect: Should the auto-ingredient update mechanism be incorporated when deleting sales record?

  • Alternative 1 (current choice): DeleteSalesCommand does not update the ingredient list. That is, it does not "return" the ingredients which may have been deducted during record-sales.

    • Pros: Remove the possibility of unwanted updates to the ingredient list. This is apparent when deleting an obsolete record. We do not want the ingredients to "magically appear" in the ingredient list.

    • Cons: If user accidentally recorded sales by mistake and triggered the update mechanism, deleting sales will not help him/her recover the deducted ingredients. Instead, user will have to rely on the Undo command.

  • Alternative 2: DeleteSalesCommand "returns" any deducted ingredients to the ingredient list.

    • Pros: Resolves the issue stated in "Alternative 1 - Cons".

    • Cons: Brings about the issue stated in "Alternative 1 - Pros".

Aspect: Should the auto-ingredient update mechanism be incorporated when editing sales record?

  • Alternative 1 (current choice): EditSalesCommand does not update the ingredient list. That is, it does not "return" the ingredients which may have been deducted during record-sales and does not attempt to re-compute or re-deduct the ingredient used. Since the IngredientUsed attribute of the SalesRecord is now outdated, it will be removed permanently.

    • Pros: Easy to implement. Avoids the implementation complexity as stated in "Alternative 2 - Cons".

    • Cons: If user accidentally made an error when recording sales in the past, editing sales will not help him/her alter the ingredients deducted. What was deducted previously will stay as it is. Also, the IngredientUsed attribute will no longer be available.

  • Alternative 2: EditSalesCommand "returns" the ingredients which may have been deducted, re-computes the IngredientUsed attribute and re-deduct the ingredients from the ingredient list. The IngredientUsed attribute of the SalesRecord will be updated.

    • Pros: Resolves the issue stated in "Alternative 1 - Cons".

    • Cons: Must take time into consideration when re-computing the IngredientUsed since required ingredients per unit of an item may change over time.

      • Option 1: Use required ingredients per unit data available during record-sales in the past.
        Analysis: We would need a repository to save different versions of Menu in the past. The entire Menu must be saved whenever a sales record is added. This is so that if user were to edit the ItemName attribute of that particular sales record in the future, we would be able to retrieve the item’s required ingredients per unit data (which might not even have been specified) at the time of record-sales.
        Verdict: This option would take up a massive amount of memory space in the long run.

      • Option 2: Use required ingredients per unit data available during edit-sales at the present.
        Analysis: Let us assume that a glass of orange juice takes 1 orange to make at the time of record-sales (past), and 3 oranges to make at the time of edit-sales (present). If the user edits the QuantitySold attribute from 1 (past) to 10 (present), it would be illogical for (3*10-1*1 = 29) oranges to be deducted from the ingredient list since it only took (1*10 = 10) oranges.
        Verdict: This option is irrational.

4.5. Display sales report feature

4.5.1. Current Implementation

The display sales report mechanism is facilitated by the Model, UI and Event components of the App. A SalesReport class encapsulates the attributes of a sales report to be displayed. The sales report is internally generated by generateSalesReport(Date) in UniqueRecordList. It then propagates up the Model call hierarchy to getSalesReport(Date) in ModelManager, which is exposed in the Model interface.

The following sequence diagram (Figure 4.5.1.1) illustrates how the display sales report operation works when the user enters display-sales 25-12-2017:

DisplaySalesSequenceDiagram

Figure 4.5.1.1: Sequence Diagram for display-sales command

The sequence diagram for the "Parse Command" reference frame above is shown below in Figure 4.5.1.2:

DisplaySalesSequenceDiagramRef

Figure 4.5.1.2: Sequence Diagram for "Parse Command" reference frame

Given below is an example usage scenario and how the display sales report operation behaves at each step.

Step 1. The user executes display-sales 25-12-2017 command to request for the sales report dated 25-12-2017. The display-sales command calls Model#getSalesReport(Date), passing in the date "25-12-2017", and gets the generated SalesReport in return.

ℹ️
display-sales command will not call Model#getSalesReport(Date) if the specified date is invalid
ℹ️
If no sales record associated with the given Date is found, an empty SalesReport will be returned. In such cases, the command will terminate with a message notifying the user about the absence of such record

Step 2. The display-sales command then raises the DisplaySalesReportEvent event, which also encapsulates the generated SalesReport in step 1.

Step 3. The EventsCenter reacts to the above event, which results in handleDisplaySalesReportEvent(Event) in UI’s MainWindow being called. This method instantiates a SalesReportWindow object by passing in the SalesReport to its constructor. This SalesReportWindow acts as the controller for the sales report window.

Step 4. The SalesReportWindow is then initialized and displayed on user’s screen.

4.5.2. Design Considerations

Aspect: How SalesReport is generated internally
  • Alternative 1 (current choice): generateSalesReport(Date) in UniqueRecordList filters the entire record list. Records that match the given Date are added into a List<SalesRecord>. The SalesReport is generated based on this list.

    • Pros: Easy to implement.

    • Cons: Execution is of linear time complexity and would be considerably slow should the list size be very large.

  • Alternative 2: Maintain another list that sorts itself by date every time it is modified. Conduct a binary search to fill in the List<SalesRecord> every time a sales report is requested.

    • Pros: SalesReport can be generated with a O(logN) time complexity.

    • Cons: Sorting after every input would require O(NlogN) time which is slow. Additionally, the sorted list also takes up an O(N) memory space.

4.6. Delete ingredient feature

This feature allows the user to delete an ingredient from the ingredient list, specified by its name or index.

4.6.1. Current Implementation

The delete ingredient mechanism is facilitated by DeleteIngredientCommand. It is implemented as an abstract class with the following abstract methods:

  • DeleteIngredientCommand#execute() – Removes a specified ingredient from the list

  • DeleteIngredientCommand#equals() – Checks if two DeleteIngredientCommand instances have the same attributes

DeleteIngredientByIndexCommand and DeleteIngredientByNameCommand extends DeleteIngredientCommand and implement their own behaviour for these methods.

  • DeleteIngredientCommandByIndexCommand#execute() - Removes an ingredient specified by a valid index

  • DeleteIngredientCommandByNameCommand#execute() - Removes an ingredient specified by a valid name

The following sequence diagrams illustrate how the delete operation works.

  • Diagram 1: When user enters delete-ingredient 1

  • Diagram 2: When user enters delete-ingredient apple

    DeleteIngredientByNameSequenceDiagram

    Figure 4.6.1.2: Component interactions for delete-ingredient apple command

4.6.2. Design Considerations

Aspect: Implementation of delete ingredient command

Two different implementations were considered.

  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Separate classes to handle deleting by index and deleting by name.

    • Pros: Allows different attributes and method implementation for each class.

    • Cons: Tight coupling between DeleteIngredientCommand and the inheriting classes

  • Alternative 2: Single class to handle deleting by both index and name.

    • Pros: Less coupling since the methods related to the delete ingredient command are confined to a single class.

    • Cons: Two attributes are required, but only one has a value while the other has to be set to null. This makes the equals() method difficult to implement.

4.7. Stock up ingredient feature

This feature allows the user to stock up one or more ingredients in the ingredient list.

4.7.1. Current Implementation

The Stock Up mechanism involves mainly the StockUpCommandParser, StockUpCommand and the Model interface. The StockUpCommandParser parses the command input from the user, creating a HashMap mapping IngredientName keys to NumUnits values. This HashMap represents the ingredients to be stocked up, and their respective stock up amounts. With this HashMap, the StockUpCommandParser creates a StockUpCommand object. The StockUpCommand executes the stock up operation, which is exposed in the Model interface as Model#stockUpIngredients().

⚠️
The operation is atomic, thus if it fails for one ingredient, none of the ingredients will be stocked up and an exception is thrown

The following activity diagram shows what happens when the user executes the stockup command:

StockUpActivityDiagram

Figure 4.7.1.1: Flow of events after a user executes the stockup command

4.7.2. Design Considerations

Aspect: Implementation of Stock Up command

Two different implementations were considered.

  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Create a stock up operation exposed in the Model. A list of ingredients is passed as a HashMap argument to the model interface to perform the stock up on all ingredients.

    • Pros: Maintains good abstraction. The sales feature can call upon the stock up operation of the interface without needing to know its implementation or creating any Ingredient objects.

    • Cons: Additional code has to be written and maintained, as opposed to using existing methods.

  • Alternative 2: Use the edit operation of the Model interface exposed as Model#updateIngredient(). For each ingredient to be stocked up, a new ingredient with the updated number of units is created and then passed as an argument to updateIngredient().

    • Pros: Simple to implement, by using the existing updateIngredient() method.

    • Cons: Difficult to integrate different features while maintaining abstraction. The auto-update-ingredient feature would require the sales component to create each updated ingredient, before calling the updateIngredient() method. This means poor abstraction and possibly a violation of the Law of Demeter.

4.8. Menu management feature

Menu management feature extends MeNUS with a menu and provides the users with the ability to add items to the menu, edit items and remove items from the menu.

4.8.1. Current Implementation

The menu is stored internally as items, which is a UniqueItemList object that contains a list of Item objects. The menu management feature implements the following operations:

  • add-item command — Adds an item to the menu. The item must not already exist in the menu.

  • edit-item command — Replaces the target item with the editedItem. Target item must be in the menu and editedItem must not be the same as another existing item in the menu.

  • delete-item-index or delete-item-name command — Removes the equivalent item(s) from the menu. The item(s) must exist in the menu.

  • list-items command — Lists all the items in the menu.

  • clear-menu command — Removes all items from the menu.

  • select-item command — Selects an item in the menu and loads the page of the selected item.

  • sort-menu — Sorts the menu by name or price. The user must specify the sorting method.

  • find-item command — Finds items whose names contain any of the given keywords.

  • filter-menu command — Finds items whose tags contain any of the given keywords.

  • today-special command — Finds items whose tags contain the DAY_OF_THE_WEEK.

  • discount-item command — Gives discount to the equivalent item(s) in the menu. The item(s) must exist in the menu.

  • recipe-item command — Adds a recipe to the equivalent item in the menu. The item must exist in the menu.

  • add-required-ingredients command —  Adds the required ingredients to the equivalent item in the menu. The item must exist in the menu.

Each Item object consists of Name, Price, Recipe, Set<Tag> and Map<IngredientName, Integer>

4.8.2. sort-menu Command

The sort-menu command is facilitated by SortMenuCommand and SortMenuCommandParser. The command takes in user input for the sorting method.

ℹ️
Currently only sort by name or price

The SortMenuCommandParser will parse the user input and checks if the input is valid. If the input is valid, it constructs an SortMenuCommand object.

ℹ️
If the input is not valid, it will throw a ParseException

The SortMenuCommand object will indirectly call the UniqueItemList#sortItemsByName() or UniqueItemList#sortItemsByPrice() and the sorts the menu. After sorting the menu, it will save the current state for undo/redo.

The following activity diagram summarizes what happens when a user executes sort-menu command:

SortMenuActivityDiagram

Figure 4.8.2.1: SortMenu Activity diagram

The following sequence diagram shows how the sort-menu command works:

SortMenuSequenceDiagram

Figure 4.8.2.2: SortMenu Sequence diagram

4.8.3. discount-item Command

The discount-item command is facilitated by DiscountItemCommand and DiscountItemCommandParser. The command takes in user input for discount percentage and index or the keyword all.

The DiscountItemCommandParser will parse the user input and checks if the input is valid. It will check if the keyword all is entered. If keyword all is entered, DiscountItemCommandParser will construct an DiscountItemCommand object with isAll set to true. If index or a range of index is entered, it will construct an DiscountItemCommand object with isAll set to false.

ℹ️
If the inputs are not valid, it will throw a ParseException

The DiscountItemCommand object will check if isAll is true. If isAll is true, it will give the discount to all items in the UniqueItemList. Otherwise, it will give the discount to the item(s) specified by the index or the range of index. The DiscountItemCommand object create an Item with discounted price and indirectly call UniqueItemList#setItem(Item target, Item editedItem) to update the Item with Item with discounted price. It will then save the current state for undo/redo.

The following activity diagram summarizes what happens when a user executes discount-item command:

DiscountItemActivityDiagram

Figure 4.8.3.1: DiscountItem Activity diagram

4.8.4. Design Considerations

Aspect: How Price is parsed
  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Price is parsed without the currency symbol.

    • Pros: Easy to implement.

    • Cons: Only able to display Price with $ with 2 decimal place.

  • Alternative 2: Allow users to enter the currency symbol

    • Pros: Able to display the different currencies.

    • Cons: Harder to parse as currencies have different decimal places. Additional checks need to be implemented to check if the currency symbol and price entered are valid.

4.9. Reservations feature

The Reservations feature allows users to store customer reservations, view them, and to cancel them.

4.9.1. Current Implementation

The Reservations feature currently contains 6 commands to modify the UniqueReservationsList stored in ModelManager.

  • add-reservation command - Adds reservations to the reservations list.

  • edit-reservation command - Edits existing reservations in the reservations list.

  • delete-reservation command - Deletes existing reservations in the reservations list.

  • list-reservation command - Lists reservations in the reservations list.

  • select-reservation command - Select existing reservations in the reservations list.

  • sort-reservation command - Sorts existing reservations in the reservations list.

Each Reservation object contains Name, Pax, Date and Time.

4.9.2. add-reservation Command

The command takes in 3 parameters, Name, Pax,Date and Time to create a Reservation object.

ℹ️

The Date class will reject dates that have already passed the current date

Dates are parsed using the Natty Library

⚠️

Due to the way Natty is implemented, Natty will try to parse dates in MM-DD-YYYY format
i.e. 03-11-2019 will be parsed as 11th March instead of 3rd November

As a temporary workaround, the Date class will check to see if the date entered is in the DD-MM-YYYY format

If it is, then it will be parsed using LocalDate.parse()
If not, it will continue use the Natty Library to parse the date value

After the Reservation Object is created, RestaurantBook#addReservation(Reservation reservation) is called to add the Reservation Object to the UniqueReservationsList.

The following activity diagram summarizes what happens when a user executes add-reservation command:

AddReservationActivityDiagram

Figure 4.9.2.1: Activity diagram to illustrate the add-reservation command

4.9.3. edit-reservation Command

The command takes in 1 mandatory parameter, Index, followed by 1 or more of the following optional parameters, Name, Pax, Date, Time.

The Reservation associated with the given Index is then identified within the internal UniqueReservationsList, then has its values updated to the new values specified by the Name, Pax,Date, and Time parameters.

4.9.4. delete-reservation Command

The command takes in 1 parameter, Index.

The Reservation associated with the given Index is then identified, then deleted from the internal UniqueReservationsList.

4.9.5. list-reservations Command

The command does not require any additional parameters.

A DisplayReservationListRequestEvent is posted to the EventsCenter, which will call the handleDisplayReservationListRequestEvent method of the MainWindow. The Reservations List will then be shown on the UI.

The following sequence diagram shows how the list-reservations command works:

ListReservationsSequenceDiagram

Figure 4.9.5.1: Sequence diagram to illustrate the list-reservations command

4.9.6. Design Considerations

Aspect: How Date and Time are parsed

  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Date and Time are parsed using Natty.

    • Pros: Easy to implement as it only requires importing the Natty library with minimal configuration.

    • Cons: Natty will sometimes try to "guess" unexpected Date values.

  • Alternative 2: Configure the Natty library to avoid unexpected parse results.

    • Pros: The parser will be able to provide more accurate Date and Time values.

    • Cons: Difficult to implement as it requires deep understanding of how the Natty library works.

4.10. Logging

We are using java.util.logging package for logging. The LogsCenter class is used to manage the logging levels and logging destinations.

  • The logging level can be controlled using the logLevel setting in the configuration file (See Section 4.11, “Configuration”)

  • The Logger for a class can be obtained using LogsCenter.getLogger(Class) which will log messages according to the specified logging level

  • Currently log messages are output through: Console and to a .log file.

Logging Levels

  • SEVERE : Critical problem detected which may possibly cause the termination of the application

  • WARNING : Can continue, but with caution

  • INFO : Information showing the noteworthy actions by the App

  • FINE : Details that is not usually noteworthy but may be useful in debugging e.g. print the actual list instead of just its size

4.11. Configuration

Certain properties of the application can be controlled (e.g App name, logging level) through the configuration file (default: config.json).

5. Documentation

We use asciidoc for writing documentation.

ℹ️
We chose asciidoc over Markdown because asciidoc, although a bit more complex than Markdown, provides more flexibility in formatting.

5.1. Editing Documentation

See UsingGradle.adoc to learn how to render .adoc files locally to preview the end result of your edits. Alternatively, you can download the AsciiDoc plugin for IntelliJ, which allows you to preview the changes you have made to your .adoc files in real-time.

5.2. Publishing Documentation

See UsingTravis.adoc to learn how to deploy GitHub Pages using Travis.

5.3. Converting Documentation to PDF format

We use Google Chrome for converting documentation to PDF format, as Chrome’s PDF engine preserves hyperlinks used in webpages.

Here are the steps to convert the project documentation files to PDF format.

  1. Follow the instructions in UsingGradle.adoc to convert the AsciiDoc files in the docs/ directory to HTML format.

  2. Go to your generated HTML files in the build/docs folder, right click on them and select Open withGoogle Chrome.

  3. Within Chrome, click on the Print option in Chrome’s menu.

  4. Set the destination to Save as PDF, then click Save to save a copy of the file in PDF format. For best results, use the settings indicated in the screenshot below.

chrome save as pdf

Figure 5.3.1.: Saving documentation as PDF files in Chrome

5.4. Site-wide Documentation Settings

The build.gradle file specifies some project-specific asciidoc attributes which affects how all documentation files within this project are rendered.

💡
Attributes left unset in the build.gradle file will use their default value, if any.
Table 1. List of site-wide attributes
Attribute name Description Default value

site-name

The name of the website. If set, the name will be displayed near the top of the page.

not set

site-githuburl

URL to the site’s repository on GitHub. Setting this will add a "View on GitHub" link in the navigation bar.

not set

site-seedu

Define this attribute if the project is an official SE-EDU project. This will render the SE-EDU navigation bar at the top of the page, and add some SE-EDU-specific navigation items.

not set

5.5. Per-file Documentation Settings

Each .adoc file may also specify some file-specific asciidoc attributes which affects how the file is rendered.

Asciidoctor’s built-in attributes may be specified and used as well.

💡
Attributes left unset in .adoc files will use their default value, if any.
Table 2. List of per-file attributes, excluding Asciidoctor’s built-in attributes
Attribute name Description Default value

site-section

Site section that the document belongs to. This will cause the associated item in the navigation bar to be highlighted. One of: UserGuide, DeveloperGuide, LearningOutcomes*, AboutUs, ContactUs

* Official SE-EDU projects only

not set

no-site-header

Set this attribute to remove the site navigation bar.

not set

5.6. Site Template

The files in docs/stylesheets are the CSS stylesheets of the site. You can modify them to change some properties of the site’s design.

The files in docs/templates controls the rendering of .adoc files into HTML5. These template files are written in a mixture of Ruby and Slim.

⚠️

Modifying the template files in docs/templates requires some knowledge and experience with Ruby and Asciidoctor’s API. You should only modify them if you need greater control over the site’s layout than what stylesheets can provide. The SE-EDU team does not provide support for modified template files.

6. Testing

6.1. Running Tests

There are three ways to run tests.

💡
The most reliable way to run tests is the 3rd one. The first two methods might fail some GUI tests due to platform/resolution-specific idiosyncrasies.

Method 1: Using IntelliJ JUnit test runner

  • To run all tests, right-click on the src/test/java folder and choose Run 'All Tests'

  • To run a subset of tests, you can right-click on a test package, test class, or a test and choose Run 'ABC'

Method 2: Using Gradle

  • Open a console and run the command gradlew clean allTests (Mac/Linux: ./gradlew clean allTests)

ℹ️
See UsingGradle.adoc for more info on how to run tests using Gradle.

Method 3: Using Gradle (headless)

Thanks to the TestFX library we use, our GUI tests can be run in the headless mode. In the headless mode, GUI tests do not show up on the screen. That means the developer can do other things on the Computer while the tests are running.

To run tests in headless mode, open a console and run the command gradlew clean headless allTests (Mac/Linux: ./gradlew clean headless allTests)

6.2. Types of tests

We have two types of tests:

  1. GUI Tests - These are tests involving the GUI. They include,

    1. System Tests that test the entire App by simulating user actions on the GUI. These are in the systemtests package.

    2. Unit tests that test the individual components. These are in seedu.restaurant.ui package.

  2. Non-GUI Tests - These are tests not involving the GUI. They include,

    1. Unit tests targeting the lowest level methods/classes.
      e.g. seedu.restaurant.commons.StringUtilTest

    2. Integration tests that are checking the integration of multiple code units (those code units are assumed to be working).
      e.g. seedu.restaurant.storage.StorageManagerTest

    3. Hybrids of unit and integration tests. These test are checking multiple code units as well as how the are connected together.
      e.g. seedu.restaurant.logic.LogicManagerTest

6.3. Troubleshooting Testing

Problem: HelpWindowTest fails with a NullPointerException.

  • Reason: One of its dependencies, HelpWindow.html in src/main/resources/docs is missing.

  • Solution: Execute Gradle task processResources.

Problem: Test failed with Missing newline at end of file.

  • Reason: A newline is missing in the file.

  • Solution: File > Settings…​ > Editor > General > Ensure line feed at file end on Save.

7. Dev Ops

7.1. Build Automation

See UsingGradle.adoc to learn how to use Gradle for build automation.

7.2. Continuous Integration

We use Travis CI and AppVeyor to perform Continuous Integration on our projects. See UsingTravis.adoc and UsingAppVeyor.adoc for more details.

7.3. Coverage Reporting

We use Coveralls to track the code coverage of our projects. See UsingCoveralls.adoc for more details.

7.4. Documentation Previews

When a pull request has changes to asciidoc files, you can use Netlify to see a preview of how the HTML version of those asciidoc files will look like when the pull request is merged. See UsingNetlify.adoc for more details.

7.5. Making a Release

Here are the steps to create a new release.

  1. Update the version number in MainApp.java.

  2. Generate a JAR file using Gradle.

  3. Tag the repo with the version number. e.g. v0.1

  4. Create a new release using GitHub and upload the JAR file you created.

7.6. Managing Dependencies

A project often depends on third-party libraries. For example, Restaurant Book depends on the Jackson library for XML parsing. Managing these dependencies can be automated using Gradle. For example, Gradle can download the dependencies automatically, which is better than these alternatives.
a. Include those libraries in the repo (this bloats the repo size).
b. Require developers to download those libraries manually (this creates extra work for developers).
