Command Pattern

Command Pattern 


Gamma Categorization: Behavioral Design Pattern
Summary: Encapsulate a request as an object, thereby letting you parameterize clients with different requests, queue or log requests, and support undoable operations.

Sample Code

Problem: We want to apply several commands on the digital camera.

Code

public interface ICommand
{
    void Execute();
}

public enum CameraCommands { ShutterSpeed, FocalDistance, ISO, Shoot }

public class ShutterSpeedCommand : ICommand
{
    private float shutterSpeed;

    public ShutterSpeedCommand(float shutterSpeed)
    {
        this.shutterSpeed = shutterSpeed;
    }

    public void Execute()
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Setting shutter speed to {shutterSpeed} seconds.");
    }
}

public class FocalDistanceCommand : ICommand
{
    private int focalDistance;

    public FocalDistanceCommand(int focalDistance)
    {
        this.focalDistance = focalDistance;
    }

    public void Execute()
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Setting focal distance to {focalDistance} mm.");
    }
}

public class ISOCommand : ICommand
{
    private int ISO;

    public ISOCommand(int ISO)
    {
        this.ISO = ISO;
    }

    public void Execute()
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Setting ISO to {ISO}.");
    }
}

public class ShootCommand : ICommand
{
    public void Execute()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Taking photo.");
    }
}

public class CameraInvoker
{
    public ICommand GetCommand(CameraCommands command, object parameter)
    {
        switch (command)
        {
            case CameraCommands.FocalDistance:
                return new FocalDistanceCommand((int)parameter);
            case CameraCommands.ShutterSpeed:
                return new ShutterSpeedCommand((float)parameter);
            case CameraCommands.ISO:
                return new ISOCommand((int)parameter);
            case CameraCommands.Shoot:
                return new ShootCommand();
            default:
                return null;
        }
    }
}

Usage

var cameraInvoker = new CameraInvoker();

var command = cameraInvoker.GetCommand(CameraCommands.FocalDistance, 28);
command.Execute();

command = cameraInvoker.GetCommand(CameraCommands.ShutterSpeed, 0.004f);
command.Execute();

command = cameraInvoker.GetCommand(CameraCommands.ISO, 100);
command.Execute();

command = cameraInvoker.GetCommand(CameraCommands.Shoot, null);
command.Execute();

Output

Setting focal distance to 28 mm.
Setting shutter speed to 0.004 seconds.
Setting ISO to 100.
Taking photo.

Software Development

Software Development Agile Agile is an insurance policy for market changes. By designing your solution according to this methodology, your project remains flexible and is always ready for change. It is always better to correct the mistake early in the process. With this method, you keep your finger on the pulse of a dynamic market and changing user expectations. As a result, you can continuously adapt, change your strategy, and create a product that will be in demand by the target audience, even if preferences have changed during the development process. DevOps DevOps is one more way to optimize the development budget of your application. A key DevOps approach is that this practice and its culture allow team members to better interact with each other and the customer. The software development team and those responsible for the operation of the application share responsibilities clearly, and it helps you avoid shifting responsibilities from one team member to another. DevOps involves th...

Abstract Factory Pattern

Abstract Factory Pattern  Gamma Categorization: Creational Design Patten Summary: When the object construction is complicated, needing multiple arguments, we should create a separate function (Factory Method) or class (Factory), which is responsible for the creation of the all object. Problem examples Suport of multiple databases Multiple data sources: Serial port, ethernet port, device driver Diferent report types Solution Abstract class Generalized interface A Factory creates instances of the concrete classes Sample Code The abstract factory public   interface   IPhotoFactory {      IAnaloguePhoto   CreateAnaloguePhoto ();      IDigitalPhoto   CreateDigitalPhoto (); } The abstract products public   interface   IAnaloguePhoto {      string   GetName (); } public   interface   IDigitalPhoto {      ...

SOLID (3/5) - Liskov substitution principle

  SOLID (3/5) - Liskov substitution principle Substitutability is a principle in object-oriented programming stating that, in a computer program, if S is a subtype of T, then objects of type T may be replaced with objects of type S (i.e., an object of type T may be substituted with any object of a subtype S) without altering any of the desirable properties of the program (correctness, task performed, etc.). More formally, the Liskov substitution principle (LSP) is a particular definition of a subtyping relation, called (strong) behavioral subtyping. It is a semantic rather than merely syntactic relation, because it intends to guarantee semantic interoperability of types in a hierarchy, object types in particular. using   System ; namespace   Liskov {      public   class   Rectangle     {          //public int Width { get; set; }   ...
