SmartHomeBot

SmartHomeBot - Java CLI Application that monitor your smart home.

Tan Lee Wei - Project Portfolio Page

Overview

SmartHomeBot is a desktop application that consolidates all home appliance’s control into a centralized system via a Command Line Interface (CLI). Even though the main target of the SmartHomeBot is disabled home users with mobility issues, it can be used by anyone that wants to have a bot to help in controlling household appliances but prefer typing than speaking to the bot. The main goal of this application is to help to make the life of the user easier and more convenient by allowing the user to add their household appliances into the SmartHomeBot, allowing the user to switch on and off their appliances through the application and also monitor their electrical power usage.

RepoSense

Main Function implemented

I am mainly responsible for the storage package and some of the data package for SmartHomeBot.

LocationList: list of stored locations.
StorageFile
1. ReadStorageFile: Read the data is the .txt storage file back into the program.
2. WriteStorageFile: Write the data in the program into the .txt storage file.

Enhancement implemented

I implemented the WriteStorageFile in such a way that each time the user entered a command, the program will automatically save the updates and overwrites all the data in the storage file with the new contents, so that this will prevent any lost of data even if the program crashes halfway.

Contributions to UserGuide

I have provided explanations and examples for some of the SmartHomeBot functions. I have also added some images as examples on how to use the application to give a better illustration on how to use the application to the users. After my team members and I have complete our parts of the UserGuide, we will come together to review the UserGuide to find out any mistakes we have made and parts we are lacking in the UserGuide.
