Facade Pattern

Facade Pattern 


Gamma Categorization: Structural Design Pattern
Summary: Provide a unified interface to a set of interfaces in a subsystem. Façade defines a higher-level interface that makes the subsystem easier to use.

Sample Code

Problem: We want a facade for our digital camera subsystems.

public class DigitalCameraFacade
{
    ICamera camera;        
    IStorageManager storageManager;
    INetworkManager networkManager;

    public DigitalCameraFacade(ICamera cameraIStorageManager storageManagerINetworkManager networkManager)
    {
        this.camera = camera;            
        this.storageManager = storageManager;
        this.networkManager = networkManager;
    }

    public void TakePhoto()
    {
        var photo = camera.TakePhoto();
        storageManager.WriteFile(photo);
        networkManager.Send(photo);
    }
}

public interface ICamera
{
    byte[] TakePhoto();
}

public class DSLR : ICamera
{
    public byte[] TakePhoto()
    {
        System.Console.WriteLine("Taking photo.");
        return new byte[1024];
    }
}

public interface IStorageManager
{
    byte[] ReadFile();
    void WriteFile(byte[] file);        
}

public class SDCardManager : IStorageManager
{
    public byte[] ReadFile()
    {
        System.Console.WriteLine("Reading file to drive.");
        return new byte[1024];
    }
    public void WriteFile(byte[] file) => System.Console.WriteLine("Writing file from drive.");
}

public interface INetworkManager
{
    void Connect();
    void Send(byte[] file);
}

public class WifiManager : INetworkManager
{
    public void Connect() => System.Console.WriteLine("Connecting.");
    public void Send(byte[] file) => System.Console.WriteLine("Sending file.");
}

Usage

var digitalCamera = new DigitalCameraFacade(new DSLR(), new SDCardManager(), new WifiManager());
digitalCamera.TakePhoto();

Output

Taking photo.
Writing file from drive.
Sending file.

SOLID (4/5) - Interface segregation principle

Interface segregation principle In the field of software engineering, the interface-segregation principle (ISP) states that no client should be forced to depend on methods it does not use. ISP splits interfaces that are very large into smaller and more specific ones so that clients will only have to know about the methods that are of interest to them. Such shrunken interfaces are also called role interfaces. ISP is intended to keep a system decoupled and thus easier to refactor, change, and redeploy. using   System ; namespace   interfacesegregation {      public   class   Document       {     }      public   interface   IMachine       {          void   Print ( Document   d );          void   Scan ( Document   d );     ...
