Level 6. Delete

Add support for deleting tasks from the list.

Example:

list
    ____________________________________________________________
     Here are the tasks in your list:
     1.[T][✓] read book
     2.[D][✓] return book (by: June 6th)
     3.[E][✗] project meeting (at: Aug 6th 2-4pm)
     4.[T][✓] join sports club
     5.[T][✗] borrow book
    ____________________________________________________________

delete 3
    ____________________________________________________________
     Noted. I've removed this task: 
       [E][✗] project meeting (at: Aug 6th 2-4pm)
     Now you have 4 tasks in the list.
    ____________________________________________________________

Use Java Collections classes for storing data. For example, you can use an ArrayList<Task> to store the tasks.

Use the input/output redirection technique to semi-automate testing of Duke.

A tutorial is provided in the duke repository.

Level 9. Find

Give users a way to find a task by searching for a keyword.

Example:

find book
    ____________________________________________________________
     Here are the matching tasks in your list:
     1.[T][✓] read book
     2.[D][✓] return book (by: June 6th)
    ____________________________________________________________

Refactor the code to extract out closely related code as classes.

• Minimal: Extract the following classes:
  • Ui: deals with interactions with the user
  • Storage: deals with loading tasks from the file and saving tasks in the file
  • Parser: deals with making sense of the user command
  • TaskList: contains the task list e.g., it has operations to add/delete tasks in the list

public class Duke {

    private Storage storage;
    private TaskList tasks;
    private Ui ui;

    public Duke(String filePath) {
        ui = new Ui();
        storage = new Storage(filePath);
        try {
            tasks = new TaskList(storage.load());
        } catch (DukeException e) {
            ui.showLoadingError();
            tasks = new TaskList();
        }
    }

    public void run() {
        //...
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Duke("data/tasks.txt").run();
    }
}

• Stretch Goal: Consider extracting more classes. e.g., *Command classes (i.e., AddCommand, DeleteCommand, ExitCommand etc.) that inherits from an abstract Command class, so that you can write the main logic of the App as follows:

  public void run() {
      ui.showWelcome();
      boolean isExit = false;
      while (!isExit) {
          try {
              String fullCommand = ui.readCommand();
              ui.showLine();
              Command c = Parser.parse(fullCommand);
              c.execute(tasks, ui, storage);
              isExit = c.isExit();
          } catch (DukeException e) {
              ui.showError(e.getMessage());
          } finally {
              ui.showLine();
          }
      }
  }
  

Level 10. GUI

Add a GUI to Duke.

Use JavaFX to create a GUI. Refer to the JavaFX tutorials at the Duke repo (i.e., the repo you forked from) to learn how to get started.
