AddressBook2

A command line application developed in C++ programming language. The main purpose of this project is to act as a qualification test of mastering of C++.

Note!!! (For submit your code)

  • Fork me and use pull request to submit changes to develop branch. Anything unclear about the feature, fire issue on github.
  • You should submit your source code and pom file
  • Remember this is the only place to submit your code, not by email. Tip: do some basic learning of github

Requirement

Browse and modify a JSON data structure with ls,cd,cat, add, remove

Must be implemented features

  • Let's say we have this address entry data structure in JSON

      {
      "entries": {
          "lilei" : {
              "age": 27,
              "mobile" : "13700000000",
              "address" : "Earth somewhere"
          }, 
          "hanmeimei" : {
              "age": 26,
              "mobile" : "13700000001",
              "address" : "Earth somewhere else"
          }
      }
  }

  • start interactive command line application

    sh> ./ab

    ab> _

  • use ls command to list the items in current position

    ab> ls

    ab> entries

  • use cd command to go to the entry like go to a directory

    ab> cd entries

    ab> ls

    ab> lilei hanmeimei

  • use cat command to display th item data

    ab> cat lilei

    ab> "lilei" : { "age": 27, "mobile" : "13700000000", "address" : "Earth somewhere" }

  • use add command to add new address entry to JSON

    ab> cd entries

    ab> add

    key: xiaoming

    value: { "age": 28, "mobile" : "13700000002", "address" : "Earth somewhere too" }

    address entry added

    ab> ls

    ab> lilei hanmeimei xiaoming

    Note: the key should be identical, if trying to add duplicated key, just display an error message

  • use remove command to get one or more address entries

    ab> cd entries

    ab> remove

    please give the key: xiaoming

    xiaoming was deleted from JSON

    Note: if trying to delete an non-exist key, just display an error message

  • get help

    ab> !help

    then help message should be displayed, and when encoutering invalid command, help message should also be displayed.

  • quit from the application

    ab> !quit

    sh> _

Nonfunctional requirement

  • your programme should be object-orinted

  • your code should be well-formatted

    • NEVER use tab for indentation

  • comments for public interface/class/method is a must

  • please use linked list to store data in memory, when exit the application, you should persist the data to file system.

  • when application start if you can reload the persistent file is a plus.

  • please use simple key/value as persistent file format

  • a big plus if you can implement an address book server within the application(telnet or raw socket protocol). when you start interactive command line application, first it starts a socket server, then takes interactive commands as the input for your socket client.

  • gcc or g++ should be should be used to compile and generate runable application. If you working on windows, you can use Cygwin.

  • please provide your steps to build this application

    • Make file is a plus.

  • DO NOT store any IDE specific files into git repository

  • if there is any fault in this readme, please also fix it or submit an issue
