Base program framework #5

Open martinatime opened 11 years ago

martinatime commented 11 years ago

This is the skeleton application

A command line "executable" runs
All relevant libraries and configurations will be in place
The program will handle command line options
The program will output usage and any relevant errors
The program will have the framework in place for logging/tracing

The intent is to have something that runs and also to test out our procedures for source control, development, and testing.

I like the approach of starting with a command line interface and circling back around at a later time to create a UI and handle any refactoring needed to support a GUI.

I always like utilities like this that provide a command line so that it could be used in scripting and scheduled jobs. Also this gives us something concrete to work with immediately and not just abstract concepts.

Build a data access utility for Lucene (maybe)

Hibernate or other ORM framework

Configuration external to database (ie INI file). Default and Overlay (local)

Java logging (INI points to the logging properties)

Libraries to use:

Apache Commons
Maybe a Command Line Options library
MP3 libraries (ID3 tag/MusicBrainz/etc)

Unit tests for this framework

Making some progress on this. We have:

A base command and a few tests
Incorporated some libraries
