Hi sergio
Hey all..
I got my first paying gig that i am able to use pharo with, and i am on
the last leg before calling it complete.
super!
I'm really happy for you.
just this makes pharo and all our effort worth it.
Here’s what I need to do..
This application accepts SMS text messages. It allows the user to send
images via MMS and place an order to a print house for those images..
it then compiles the order, and >submits it to the order processing
system and makes the prints.
The last thing I need to zero in on is handling the interaction. Believe
it or not, I have never modeled such an interaction. The interaction
goes:
- user sends images{s)
- bot says ‘thanks’ and asks if there are more
- user types ‘done’ or sends more
- on ‘done’ bot asks for print size
- bot says ‘thanks’ and the interaction is done. order is processed.
my first inclination is to use a state machine, progressing through
order each time the user enters ‘done’..
does this sound reasonable,
Yes it seems.
After you could also have a queue of command.
or is there a better model/design pattern for this interaction?
You can look at the state pattern. It is good for implementing state
machine.
Stef
Thanks!
