EYLAH - Developer Guide

1. Introduction

1.1. About EYLAH

Ease Your Lives At Hall (EYLAH) is a Command Line Interface (CLI) application designed to aid students staying in Temasek Hall within the National University of Singapore with commonly faced problems such as, tracking their diet and splitting a large bill with a group of friends.

Shown below is the CLI of EYLAH.

Ui

1.2. About this guide

This documentation serves as an introduction to the architecture and implementation of EYLAH, and is made for developers who wish to maintain, modify or understand the software development behind our application. We adopted the top-down approach; we will first look into high-level architectures before exploring implementation details of each feature.

We encourage you to traverse the full path from the high level design to the implementation details of the feature you are interested for the most complete understanding.

1.3. Tips on reading the Developer Guide

While reading the Developer Guide you may encounter some symbols. These symbols are used to highlight crucial information and in this portion we are explaining (or will be explaining) the symbols and their meaning.

3.1. Architecture

ArchitectureDiagram
Figure 1. Architecture Diagram

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

💡
The .puml files used to create diagrams in this document can be found in the diagrams folder. Refer to the Using PlantUML guide to learn how to create and edit diagrams.

EYLAH contains the main class for the application. 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. The following class plays an important role at the architecture level:

  • 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 MODELogic.java interface and exposes its functionality using the MODELogicManager.java class.

LogicClassDiagram
Figure 2. Class Diagram of the Logic Component

How the architecture components interact with each other

The Sequence Diagram below shows how the components interact with each other for the scenario where the user issues the command deleteitem 1.

ArchitectureSequenceDiagram
Figure 3. Component interactions for deleteitem 1 command

3.2. UI component

UiClassDiagram
Figure 4. Structure of the UI Component

API : Ui.java

Th UI Component mainly deals with interactions with the user. It also plays a part in the initialisation of the program printing the logo, welcome message and main menu page to user. This component only has 2 classes, Ui.java and UiManager.java.

The UI component,

  • Reading the user input.

  • Displaying the result messages to the user.

3.3. Logic component

LogicClassDiagram
Figure 5. Structure of the Logic Component

The Logic Component deals with the logic flows of the App. In each feature mode, the components to deal with the logic flow are different. In Diet Tracker mode, DietLogic.java and DietLogicManager.java are used to handle the logic operation of the APP. In Expense Splitter mode, SplitterLogic.java and SplitterLogicManager.java are used to handle the logic operation.

ℹ️
  • MODE used in the given subsection refers to Diet when in Diet Tracker mode, Splitter when in Expense Splitter mode. For example, MODELogic given below refers to SplitterLogic when in Expense Splitter mode.

  • MODEParser is an exception. When in Expense Splitter mode it refers to ExpenseSplitterParser while in Diet Tracker mode it refers to FoodBookParser.

  1. MODELogic uses the MODEParser class to parse the user command.

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

  3. The command execution can affect the Model (e.g. deleting AN entry).

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

  5. In addition, the CommandResult object can also instruct the Eylah.java application to perform certain actions, such as to go back to main menu or exit the App.

Given below is the Sequence Diagram for interactions within the Logic Component for the execute("deleteitem 1") API call.

ExpenseSplitterDeleteItemCommandSequenceDiagram

ℹ️
The lifeline for DeleteItemCommandParser should end at the destroy marker (X) but due to a limitation of PlantUML, the lifeline reaches the end of diagram.

3.4. Model component

ModelClassDiagram
Figure 7. Structure of the Model Component

The Model Component deals with the modeling of the object.

ℹ️

MODE used in the given subsection refers to Diet when in Diet Tracker mode, Splitter when in Expense Splitter mode. For example, MODEModel given below refers to SplitterModel when in Expense Splitter mode.

The MODEModel,

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

  • stores the PersonAmountBook and ReceiptBook data in Expense Splitter mode.

  • stores the FoodBook and Myself data in Diet Tracker mode.

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

3.5. Storage component

StorageClassDiagram
Figure 8. Structure of the Storage Component

The Storage Component deals with the operations to write and read from the local files.

ℹ️

MODE used in the given subsection refers to Diet when in Diet Tracker mode, Splitter when in Expense Splitter mode.For example, MODEStorage given below refers to SplitterStorage when in Expense Splitter mode.

The MODEStorage component,

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

  • can save the PersonAmountBook and ReceiptBook data in json format and read it back in Expense Splitter mode.

  • can save the FoodBook and MySelf data in json format and read it back in Diet Tracker mode.

3.6. Common classes

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

4. Implementation

This section describes some noteworthy details on how the features in EYLAH are implemented.

4.1. Diet Tracker feature

4.1.1. Add Command

In this section, we will learn more about how the add command is implemented.

What is the Add Command

The add command allows the user to add a Food into the FoodBook, along with the Name of the Food and the Calories of the Food.

The add command was implemented as AddCommand in the diettracker/logic/commands package.

The add command has the following input format:

add -n NAME -c CALORIES [-t TAG]…​

ℹ️
  • -n NAME and -c CALORIES are compulsory fields.

  • There can be multiple -t TAG.

  • CALORIES can range from 0 to 1000000. Calories are implemented as Integers.

The following activity diagram illustrates what happens when a user executes the add command:

DietTrackerAddCommandClassDiagram
Figure 10. Add Command Class Diagram

The above class diagram shows the structure of the AddCommand and its associated classes and interfaces. Some methods and fields are left out because they are not of concern in AddCommand

Implementation of Add Command

The following is a detailed explanation of the operations AddCommand performs.

  1. The AddCommand#execute(Model dietModel) method is executed and it checks if the specified Name and Calories of a given Food to be added are valid. If valid, a new Food would be created with the specified Name and Calories.

  2. The Method DietModel#addFood(Food food) would be called to add the food into the FoodBook#foods.

  3. If successful, a success message will be generated by CommandResult and it will be returned with the generated success message. Otherwise, an error message showing the correct command syntax is thrown as CommandException.

  4. If the command syntax was valid and Food was added to the FoodBook, LogicManager calls FoodBookStorage#saveFoodBook(ReadOnlyFoodBook foodBook) which saves the new Food Amount into JSON format after serializing it using JsonAdaptedFood.

Sequence diagram for Add Command

The following sequence diagram summarizes what happens during the execution of add command.

4.1.2. Delete Command

In this section, we will learn more about how the delete command is implemented.

What is the Delete Command

The delete command allows users to remove the Food from the FoodBook via the Index.

The delete command was implemented as DeleteCommand in the diettracker/logic/commands package.

The delete command has the following input format:

delete INDEX

ℹ️
  • INDEX is a compulsory field.

  • The Index of the Food must be retrieved by using the list command.

The following activity diagram illustrates what happens when a user executes the delete command:

4.1.3. List Command

In this section, we will learn more about how the list command is implemented.

What is the List Command

The list command allows users to find out the current Foods in the FoodBook over a period of time as specified by the flag, or a list of foods with the specified tag.

The list command was implemented as a ListCommand in the diettracker/logic/commands package.

The list has the following input format:

list [-a] [-d DAYS] [-t TAGS]

ℹ️

Users must only enter at most ONE flag when using the list command.

The following activity diagram illustrates what happens when a user executes list command:

Implementation of List Command

The following is a detailed explanation of the operations ListCommand performs.

  1. The ListCommand#execute(DietModel dietModel) method is executed and it validates that the flag used to decide what Foods to list. If the flag is valid, the items to be listed will be retrieved from DietModel according to the input flag.

  2. The method DietModel#updateFilteredFoodList() will then be called to filter the List of Foods in DietModel. `FilteredList#setPredicate(Predicate<Food> predicate) is then invoked which retrieves the specified Foods to be listed.

    Case No-Flag Input: The Predicate is any food with date within 1 day back from current time.
    Case `-a`: The Predicate always returns true so the list is the entire FoodBook.
    Case `-d`: The Predicate will be all food with date later than the specified date which is calculated by input number of days back from the current date.
    Case `-t`: The Predicate will be any food with tags that matches given time.
  3. If successful, a success message will be generated by CommandResult and it will be returned with the generated success message. Otherwise, an error message showing the correct command syntax is thrown as CommandException.

4.1.5. Bmi Command

In this section, we will learn more about how the bmi command is implemented.

What is the Bmi Command

The bmi command allows the user to calculate their Body Mass Index (BMI).

The bmi command was implemented as BmiCommand in the diettracker/logic/commands package.

The bmi command has the following input format:

bmi [-h HEIGHT] [-w WEIGHT]

ℹ️
  • [-h HEIGHT] and [-w WEIGHT] may be omitted if the user has already stored their Height and Weight.

  • If Users have one of Height or Weight stored, they may use just the missing metric to calculate their BMI.

  • HEIGHT and WEIGHT can range from >0 to ⇐1000.

The following activity diagram illustrates what happens when a user executes the bmi command:

DietTrackerBmiCommandActivityDiagram
Figure 23. Bmi Command Activity Diagram

Structure of Bmi Command

In this section, you will learn more about the relationships between objects related to the bmi command.

DietTrackerBmiCommandClassDiagram
Figure 24. Bmi Command Class Diagram

The above class diagram shows the structure of the BmiCommand and its associated classes and interfaces. Some methods and fields are left out because they are not of concern in BmiCommand

Implementation of Bmi Command

The following is a detailed explanation of the operations BmiCommand performs. BmiCommand has two different usages depending on the user input.

  1. The BmiCommand#execute(Model dietModel) method is executed and it will return the output of the calculated BMI based on user arguments.

  2. If successful, a success message will be generated by CommandResult and it will be returned with the generated success message. Otherwise, an error message showing the correct command syntax is thrown as CommandException.

Sequence diagram for Bmi Command

Given below are 2 example usages of BmiCommand based on different user input.

Usage 1: No Height and Weight input

  1. User launches application and enters Diet mode. The user then enters bmi as the command.

  2. The FoodBook parser validates this command and sets up the BmiCommandParser, which checks for the input.

  3. Since there are no arguments, the BmiCommandParser will call the empty constructor BmiCommand().

  4. BmiCommand would then refer to the internal state of the splitterModel under Self, and retrieve the values stored in Self’s Height and Weight attributes.

  5. BmiCommand() will then proceed to calculate the BMI based on the current values of height and weight.

The following is a sample sequence diagram of the BmiCommand with no additional user input.

DietTrackerBmiCommandNILSequenceDiagram
Figure 25. Sequence Diagram Bmi Command Sequence Diagram without Input Arguments
DietTrackerBmiCommandNILSequenceDiagram2
Figure 26. Sequence Diagram: Retrieval of stored Height and Weight from Model
ℹ️
There is a need to ensure that there are stored values in Height and Weight attributes in the Self class.

Usage 2: With Height and Weight input

  1. User launches application and enters Diet mode. The user then enters bmi as the command.

  2. The FoodBook parser validates this command and sets up the BmiCommandParser, which checks for the input.

  3. Since there are no arguments, the BmiCommandParser will call the empty constructor BmiCommand().

  4. BmiCommand would then refer to the internal state of the splitterModel under Self, and retrieve the values stored in Self’s Height and Weight attributes.

  5. BmiCommand() will then proceed to calculate the BMI based on the current values of height and weight.

The following is a sample sequence diagram of the BmiCommand with additional user input.

DietTrackerBmiCommandSequenceDiagram
Figure 27. Bmi Command Sequence Diagram with Input Arguments
DietTrackerBmiCommandSequenceDiagram2
Figure 28. Creation of Height and Weight Objects for usage in Bmi Command

Design Considerations

Aspect: How BmiCommand executes

  • Alternative 1 (current choice): Executes with other without arguments

    • Pros: More flexible use of the Command, better user experience overall.

    • Cons: Harder to implement, as there needs to be multiple BmiCommand constructors.

  • Alternative 2: Executes separately with arguments input and without arguments input

    • Pros: Easier to implement, less potential bugs as Command uses a single constructor.

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

Aspect: Storage of BMI

  • Alternative 1 (current choice): No splitterStorage of BMI value, simply prints when user requests.

    • Pros: Less memory used; reduces complexity of the Command and objects involved.

    • Cons: Users may want to access it elsewhere from Self.

  • Alternative 2: Storage of BMI value in Self class in Model.

    • Pros: Users have access to it anytime.

    • Cons: Coding complexity.

  2. The SplitterModel#addEntry(Entry entry) method would then be called to add the Entry into the Receipt.

  3. For each Person in the list of Persons, the Person is first checked through the PersonAmountBook#persons using the SplitterModel#hasPerson(Person person) method to check if the person already exists.

  4. If the person does not already exist, the method SplitterModel#addPerson(Person person) would be called to add the person, together with the amount, into the PersonAmountBook#persons.

  5. If the Person exists, the Person would be retrieved from the PersonAmountBook#persons using the SplitterModel#getPerson(Person person) method, and then the amount would be added to that person using the SplitterModel#addAmount(Person person, Amount amount) method.

ExpenseSplitterDeleteItemCommandClassDiagram
Figure 48. Delete Item Command Class Diagram

The above class diagram shows the structure of the DeleteItemCommand and it’s associated classes and interfaces. Some methods and fields have been left out because they are not of concern in the DeleteItemCommand.

Implementation

The following is a detailed explanation of the operations DeleteItemCommand performs.

  1. The DeleteItemCommand#execute(SplitterModel splitterModel) method is executed and it validates that the specified Index to delete is within range. If valid, the Entry to be deleted will be retrieved from Receipt using its Index.

  2. The method SplitterModel#getEntry(Index index) is called to retrieve the current Entry, which subsequently retrieves the current Item using the Entry#getItem() method and the amountPerPerson associated with it via the Item#getAmountPerPerson() method. The list of Persons are also retrieved via the Entry#getPersonsList() method.

  3. For each Person in the list of Persons, the amount is subtracted from the current amount owed by the Person.

  4. The method SplitterModel#deleteEntry(int index) will then be called to remove the Item from the Receipt. Receipt#deleteEntry(int index) is invoked which makes a call to its internal list to remove the specified Item.

The paid command was implemented as a PaidCommand in the expensesplitter/logic package.

The paid command has the following input format:

paid INDEX [AMOUNT]

ℹ️
  • INDEX is a compulsory field. Instead of typing a Person’s name, the user can type their index. To find out his/her index, use the command listamount.

  • AMOUNT is an optional field. It refers to the amount paid by that Person. Leaving this field empty is equivalent to the Person paying the user the full amount he/she owes the user.

  • AMOUNT can be up to 2 decimal places, i.e. 7.99. There is no need to add the dollar sign ($).

The following activity diagram illustrates what happens when a user executes paid command:

The clearreceipt command was implemented as ClearReceiptCommand in the expensesplitter/logic/commands package.

The clearreceipt command has the following input format:

clearreceipt

ℹ️
  • Use this command only when you are very sure that you want to delete all entries and start a clean receipt.

  • When you use the clearreceipt command, you are concurrently marking the new receipt as undone. As such, you would only be able to use the additem and deleteitem commands.

The following activity diagram illustrates what happens when a user executes the clearreceipt command:

Implementation of Clear Receipt Command

The following is a detailed explanation of the operations ClearReceiptCommand performs.

  1. The ClearReceiptCommand#execute(SplitterModel splitterModel) method is executed.

  2. If the Receipt is marked as undone via the SplitterModel#isReceiptDone() method, the SplitterModel#deleteAllEntires() method is called, which calls the PersonAmountBook#deleteAllEntries() method. What does method does is that it first retrieves the ArrayList<Entry> from the Receipt via the Receipt#getReceipt() method, then for each Entry, it gets the Item and the Amount owed my each person via the Entry#getItem() and Item#getAmountPerPerson() methods respectively. The Amount is then removed from each Person in the Entry via the Entry#getPersonsList() method. After which, the splitterModel#clearReceipt() method will then be called. This will invoke the Receipt#clearReceipt() method which creates a new ArrayList and assigns it to the Receipt. At the same time, the boolean Receipt#isDone is assigned to false.

  3. If the Receipt is marked as done, the splitterModel#clearReceipt() method will then be called. This will invoke the Receipt#clearReceipt() method which creates a new ArrayList and assigns it to the Receipt. At the same time, the boolean Receipt#isDone is assigned to false.

Appendix H: Effort

Overview
As residents of Temasek Hall, members of our group frequents the supper area rather often and we have come to realise two problems that we face:
1. Splitting bills with multiple people can be a headache, especially if some of the food items are shared amongst different groups of residents.
2. There was no way of tracking our diet with the numerous suppers that we had.

In order to dive deeper into this problem, our group asked around to see if similar problems were faced by other residents. What we found was that many residents faced the same problems. One of the residents even conducted a survey before. As such, after studying the survey, our team wanted realised that we could make an application to help residents with problems we all face while staying in Temasek Hall.

Hence, we decided to build EYLAH, a super application that has both a diet tracker and a expense splitter functionality. EYLAH is significantly different from Address Book 3 (AB3) in many aspects. We needed to add audience-specific features to satisfy the needs of our target audience-residents staying in Temasek Hall.

Challenges
The team encountered a few issues during the development process of EYLAH. The more notable ones are:

  • Project Ideation
    At the very beginning of our project, we came up with many different ideas that could potentially solve the various problems Temasek Hall residents face. After many discussions, we finally boiled it down to 2 ideas. Moving on, we realised that each of us had our own idea of how to implement each feature and we even had some arguments regarding this. However, we sat down and sorted out the uncertainties and clarified with each other what the best approach would be to tackle the implementation of these ideas. At the end of the day, we not only came up with the solution but also the roadmap to our project.

  • Representation of Currency
    When we first started building our application. We were met with our first roadblock. How should we represent our currency? We knew that using double was out of the question as there were issues with it overflowing. Not only that, floating point values cannot be stored exactly in memory. There was also the issue of loss of significance. (Explained here: htts://dzone.com/articles/never-use-float-and-double-for-monetary-calculatio) As such, Willy did a bit of research and discovered that using Java’s BigDecimal was the way to go. BigDecimal does not allow negative values and allows for precision formatting.

  • Deleting an Item after Paid
    Whenever a user adds an Item, the Amount owed by someone is stored in a PersonAmountBook. When a Item is deleted, the Amount is also removed from the PersonAmountBook. The problem we faced here is when the user decides to use the paid command to reduce the Amount owed by someone before using the deleteitem command. This meant that the Amount owed by someone might potentially go to negative, which is not allowed by nature of BigDecimal. As such, our group decided to include a boolean flag in the Receipt to ensure that the paid command can only be used after the Receipt has been marked as completed. Similarly, the additem and deleteitem commands can only be used if the Receipt is marked as incomplete.

  • Integer Overflow
    In many of our intra-group bug testing sessions, we would often encounter problems with regards to integer overflow, whereby we would enter an incredibly large number as the price of an Item or the Calories of a Food. This would cause Exceptions to be thrown, causing our application to crash. To fix such problems, we made a cap on the values that can be inputted by the user.

Conclusion
In conclusion, our team had a terrific time working with each another and we hope our application, EYLAH, will indeed help to ease the lives of the residents at Temasek Hall. Overall, we believe that EYLAH is a good testament to our hard work and the time spent on perfecting it.
