Architecture

The Architecture Diagram given above explains the high-level design of the App.
Given below is a quick overview of main components and how they interact with each other.
Main components of the architecture
Main has two classes called Main and MainApp. 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 methods where necessary.
 
Commons represents a collection of classes used by multiple other components.
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. 
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 delete 1.

Each of the four main components (also shown in the diagram above),
- defines its API in an 
interfacewith the same name as the Component. - implements its functionality using a concrete 
{Component Name}Managerclass (which follows the corresponding APIinterfacementioned in the previous point. 
For example, the Logic component defines its API in the Logic.java interface and implements its functionality using the LogicManager.java class which follows the Logic interface. Other components interact with a given component through its interface rather than the concrete class (reason: to prevent outside component’s being coupled to the implementation of a component), as illustrated in the (partial) class diagram below.

The sections below give more details of each component.
UI component
The API of this component is specified in Ui.java

The UI consists of a MainWindow that is made up of parts e.g.CommandBox, ResultDisplay, PersonListPanel, StatusBarFooter etc. All these, including the MainWindow, inherit from the abstract UiPart class which captures the commonalities between classes that represent parts of the visible GUI.
The UI component uses the JavaFx UI framework. The layout of these UI parts are defined in matching .fxml files that are in the src/main/resources/view folder. For example, the layout of the MainWindow is specified in MainWindow.fxml
The UI component,
- executes user commands using the 
Logiccomponent. - listens for changes to 
Modeldata so that the UI can be updated with the modified data. - shows the an active view of the currently available content based on filter and current context.
 - keeps a reference to the 
Logiccomponent, because theUIrelies on theLogicto execute commands. 
The DetailPanel component of the UI will display a finer detail of the currently selected DisplayItem that is chosen inside Model.
How UI displays and updates DisplayItem’s in list view. Below will illustrate how any DisplayItem is generated as an card UI and then added into the corresponding ListPanel.
- Whenever the 
ObservableListinsideModelis modified or changed, each changed item will callupdateItem()method inside the respective ListPanelCell inner class found inside the respective ListPanels. - The cell will then build the card for the item by calling the 
xxxCardclass which represents an UI card object that will be used in the ListView Panel. - For each attribute in the item, the Card class will add a corresponding child element to the Card.
 - The generated Card is then added to the ListView.
 
The Sequence Diagram below illustrate how the Person Cell is generated with its attributes when Person is changed.

Logic component
API : Logic.java
Here’s a (partial) class diagram of the Logic component:

How the Logic component works:
- When 
Logicis called upon to execute a command, it uses theAddressBookParserclass to parse the user command. - This results in a 
Commandobject (more precisely, an object of one of its subclasses e.g.,AddCommand) which is executed by theLogicManager. - The command can now takes in additional optional inputs (either from piping or from creation commands).
 - The command can communicate with the 
Modelwhen it is executed (e.g. to add a person). - The command can also now create new commands / look for next commands to execute (e.g. seq, if else, piping)
 - Additional information that the command would pass to the next command will be then encapsulated along with the result of the command execution as a 
CommandResultobject which is then returned back fromLogic. 
The Sequence Diagram below illustrates the interactions within the Logic component for the execute("task delete 1") API call. Note that this is a nested api call where a selector type is given (task, person, team) and followed by a secondary command. This is handled via a 2 layer parser and the type parser will parse the subsequent text.

We can illustrate another way of invoking delete command via piping 1 into delete command. This is likely called by some other command (xxxComand e.g. (task select 1 task delete)).

Here the object of the task to be deleted is passed in to the setInput parameters. Because there is already an input and no index were provided, the delete command will use the input set by the xxxCommand instead and delete that element from model. By using commands like seq, if else etc. We can essentially chain multiple commands together to form complicated commands.
If you think about the implementation, this is highly similar to how Java Stream is implemented, where a pipe command is similar to a map command where data is being passed and re-evaluated.
DeleteCommandParser should end at the destroy marker (X) but due to a limitation of PlantUML, the lifeline reaches the end of diagram.
Teams and Persons
2 Layer commands like teams and persons (e.g., team new, team delete, …) follow a similar sequence of interactions like above.
Changing of Team Scope
However, during execution, team commands may update the context of the current team scope. To understand teams better,
Teams are analogous to folders in a basic file system, which can contain other folders (Team), or other
files (Person or Task).
The Sequence Diagram below shows the interaction between the Logic and Model component when execute("cg ..")
is called.

This way of implementation maintains abstraction of details within the Model component from the Logic component.
Parsing
Here are the other classes in Logic (omitted from the class diagram above) that are used for parsing a user command:

How the parsing works:
- When called upon to parse a user command, the 
AddressBookParserclass creates anXYZCommandParser(XYZis a placeholder for the specific command name e.g.,AddCommandParser) which uses the other classes shown above to parse the user command and create aXYZCommandobject (e.g.,AddCommand) which theAddressBookParserreturns back as aCommandobject. - All 
XYZCommandParserclasses (e.g.,AddCommandParser,DeleteCommandParser, …) inherit from theParserinterface so that they can be treated similarly where possible e.g, during testing. 
Tasks
Commands for tasks (e.g., AddTaskCommand, MarkTaskCommand, …) follow a similar sequence of interactions within
the Logic component as the other commands described above.
However, during execution, tasks commands may update the context of the current tasks of a team. To understand tasks better, it should be understood that Tasks are an attribute of a Teams object, which is used to indicate if a tasks is done (also known as marked), or not (also known as unmarked). Moreover, progress of each task can be tracked with specific levels (namely 25%, 50%, 75% and 100 %).
Below is the class diagram that illustrates the interactions between Logic and Model components, in relation to tasks.

This way of implementation of maintains abstraction of details of the Logic component, in the Model component.
Model component
API : Model.java

The Model component,
- stores the address book data i.e., all 
Person,Task,Groupobjects which are contained in their respective Unique List object (inherited fromDisplayItemList). - stores the currently ‘selected’ 
Person,Task,Groupobjects (e.g., results of a search query or a change in group context) as a separate filtered list which is exposed to outsiders as an unmodifiableObservableList<T>that can be ‘observed’ e.g. the UI can be bound to this list so that the UI automatically updates when the data in the list change. - stores a 
UserPrefobject that represents the user’s preferences. This is exposed to the outside as aReadOnlyUserPrefobjects. - does not depend on any of the other three components (as the 
Modelrepresents data entities of the domain, they should make sense on their own without depending on other components) 
Additional Attributes are stored within DisplayItem (AbstractDisplayItem, AbstractContainerItem).
Storage component
API : Storage.java

The Storage component:
- Can save both 
AddressBookdata and user preference data in json format, and read them back into corresponding objects. - Inherits from both 
AddressBookStorageandUserPrefStorage, which means it can be treated as either one (if only the functionality of only one is needed). - Depends on some classes in the 
Modelcomponent (because theStoragecomponent’s job is to save/retrieve objects that belong to theModel). 
Storage of different classes from the Model component
To store the different classes from the Model component, different Json adapted classes (e.g. JsonAdaptedPerson,
JsonAdaptedGroup, …) will be used to format, store and retrieve from Json files. These classes can then be
converted back into its Model based counterpart easily.
For example, JsonAdaptedPerson can be converted back into a Person class.
Here are the other classes in the Storage component used to store the Model component classes. The class
structure follows closely to the class structure within the Model component:

These Json adapted classes are able to convert any String
representation of attributes within the Json files to its proper class attributes using the toModelType method.
 Note: Due to the nature of AddressBookParser being a singleton class, the toModelType method
in JsonAdaptedAddressBookParser is the only instance where its return type is void.
The Sequence Diagram below illustrates how the Json file is converted back into an AddressBook.

Removing and adding parents to each group, person and task
- 
    
Note that in
JsonSerializableAddressBook, the parenting is extracted and stored as an additional attribute calleditemRelationship. This attribute is a mapping from theuuidof aperson,grouportaskto theuuidsof its respective parents. - 
    
When
Person,GroupandTaskare converted into theirJsonAdaptedclasses to be formatted correctly inAddressBook.json, they will still hold on and store their respectiveuuids. - 
    
When building the
AddressBookinJsonSerializableAddressBook, allpersons,groupsandtasksare built usingtoModelTypewithout their parents. - 
    
Within the
toModelTypemethod inJsonSerializableAddressBook, parents will then be added using thesetParentmethod in eachperson,groupandtaskclass. - 
    
The
AddressBookwith a completed tree-like structure consisting ofpersons,groupsandtasksis returned from thetoModelTypemethod inJsonSerializableAddressBook. 
Common classes
Classes used by multiple components are in the seedu.addressbook.commons package.
Implementation
This section describes some noteworthy details on how certain features are implemented.
Attributes Feature
Implementation
The attributes mechanism is facilitated by the creation of a new Attribute instance that is stored within the
AttributesList object that each Person, Group and Task have, as these three classes extend 
AbstractDisplayItem, both directly and indirectly.
To add a custom attribute, the user should provide an attribute name and an attribute value. These arguments are parsed 
by the AddFieldCommandParser, and then matched with the known attributes in the AttributeList.
The process of parsing an Attribute is also done by ParserUtil::parseAttribute, which triages the attribute name
if the attribute is considered as the default attributes (i.e. Name, Email, Phone, Address, Description) and
returns a new instance of that default attribute. If the attribute does not fall within the default attributes, then
it will create a new anonymous class that extends AbstractAttribute.
The following sequence diagram shows how the add attribute operation works:

Design Considerations
- 
Alternative 1 (current choice): Stores each 
Attributein anAttributeListwithin eachAbstractDisplayIteminstance (e.g.Person,Task,Group).- Pros: Adheres to object-oriented principles, allows storing of non-string attributes.
 - Cons: Might be more time expensive to check if attribute names are existing, as 
equalsmethod to find matches.
 
 - 
Alternative 2: Stores each 
Attributein aAttributesobject within eachAbstractDisplayItem, with a class to store aPrefixand theAttributeName- Pros: Adheres to object-oriented principles, more efficient to search for existing attributes with the
implementation of 
HashMapfor constant-time searching - Cons: Needs an additional class 
AttributePrefixesto store the knownPrefixobjects that was added by the user.
 
 - Pros: Adheres to object-oriented principles, more efficient to search for existing attributes with the
implementation of 
 - 
Alternative 3: Stores all known 
Attributeinstances in a separate static class.- Pros: All 
Attribute-related operations are stored within one accessible component - Cons: Might violate composition and encapsulation relationships in the object-oriented design.
 
 - Pros: All 
 
[Proposed] Detailed view page feature
As we have already implemented the code to dynamically generate CSS for each individual attribute, we can fully implement detailed view page in the following 3 changes.
- Adds a detailed view page that model/UI can toggle to
 - Extends the 
field addcommand to allow users to set custom styles and display settings based on the binary bit flags. - Load the attribute in a similar way as to how the card is being generated in the detailed page.
 
How DetailPanel displays all the details of a DisplayItem as an UI page.
- 
UpdateContent(DisplayItem item)will be called when the content of the UI needs to be updated. - The current content will be cleared.
 - Similar to how the card is generated by above, DetailPanel will iterate through all displayable Attributes and generate the corresponding UI components to be added to the details page.
 - The DetailPanel is now updated with the details of the new DisplayItem.
 
Below shows a sequence diagram of how DetailPanel page is filled with contents of a DisplayItem.

The proposed detailed view page allows users to have a more detailed analysis of each of the Display Items in address book and allows the user to view hidden detailed hid in list view from the display view list using the bit corresponding MENU_OK found in AccessDisplayFlag.java
[Proposed] Undo/redo feature
Proposed Implementation
The proposed undo/redo mechanism is facilitated by VersionedAddressBook. It extends AddressBook with an undo/redo history, stored internally as an addressBookStateList and currentStatePointer. Additionally, it implements the following operations:
- 
VersionedAddressBook#commit()— Saves the current address book state in its history. - 
VersionedAddressBook#undo()— Restores the previous address book state from its history. - 
VersionedAddressBook#redo()— Restores a previously undone address book state from its history. 
These operations are exposed in the Model interface as Model#commitAddressBook(), Model#undoAddressBook() and Model#redoAddressBook() respectively.
Given below is an example usage scenario and how the undo/redo mechanism behaves at each step.
Step 1. The user launches the application for the first time. The VersionedAddressBook will be initialized with the initial address book state, and the currentStatePointer pointing to that single address book state.

Step 2. The user executes delete 5 command to delete the 5th person in the address book. The delete command calls Model#commitAddressBook(), causing the modified state of the address book after the delete 5 command executes to be saved in the addressBookStateList, and the currentStatePointer is shifted to the newly inserted address book state.

Step 3. The user executes add n/David … to add a new person. The add command also calls Model#commitAddressBook(), causing another modified address book state to be saved into the addressBookStateList.

Model#commitAddressBook(), so the address book state will not be saved into the addressBookStateList.
Step 4. The user now decides that adding the person was a mistake, and decides to undo that action by executing the undo command. The undo command will call Model#undoAddressBook(), which will shift the currentStatePointer once to the left, pointing it to the previous address book state, and restores the address book to that state.

currentStatePointer is at index 0, pointing to the initial AddressBook state, then there are no previous AddressBook states to restore. The undo command uses Model#canUndoAddressBook() to check if this is the case. If so, it will return an error to the user rather
than attempting to perform the undo.
The following sequence diagram shows how the undo operation works:

UndoCommand should end at the destroy marker (X) but due to a limitation of PlantUML, the lifeline reaches the end of diagram.
The redo command does the opposite — it calls Model#redoAddressBook(), which shifts the currentStatePointer once to the right, pointing to the previously undone state, and restores the address book to that state.
currentStatePointer is at index addressBookStateList.size() - 1, pointing to the latest address book state, then there are no undone AddressBook states to restore. The redo command uses Model#canRedoAddressBook() to check if this is the case. If so, it will return an error to the user rather than attempting to perform the redo.
Step 5. The user then decides to execute the command list. Commands that do not modify the address book, such as list, will usually not call Model#commitAddressBook(), Model#undoAddressBook() or Model#redoAddressBook(). Thus, the addressBookStateList remains unchanged.

Step 6. The user executes clear, which calls Model#commitAddressBook(). Since the currentStatePointer is not pointing at the end of the addressBookStateList, all address book states after the currentStatePointer will be purged. Reason: It no longer makes sense to redo the add n/David … command. This is the behavior that most modern desktop applications follow.

The following activity diagram summarizes what happens when a user executes a new command:

Design considerations:
Aspect: How undo & redo executes:
- 
    
Alternative 1 (current choice): Saves the entire address book.
- Pros: Easy to implement.
 - Cons: May have performance issues in terms of memory usage.
 
 - 
    
Alternative 2: Individual command knows how to undo/redo by itself.
- Pros: Will use less memory (e.g. for 
delete, just save the person being deleted). - Cons: We must ensure that the implementation of each individual command are correct.
 
 - Pros: Will use less memory (e.g. for
