Boris Bikes project @makersacademy

Boris Bikes

This was the week 3 project @makersacademy set by @shadchnev. For this project we built a system based on the London Boris Bikes initiative. Users can collect and dock bikes, however, bikes can break in which case they need repairing, involving the collection of bikes by a van. They are taken to the garage, once repaired are collected again and dropped off at the docking station.

Technologies

• Ruby
• Git
• Object-oriented-programming
• Test-driven-development with RSpec
• CRC (class-responsibility-collaboration) cards.

Instructions

To run the application run irb:

require "./lib/bike"
=> true
require "./lib/docking_station"
=> true
require "./lib/garage"
=> true
require "./lib/user"
=> true
require "./lib/van"
=> true

Docking bikes inside a station:

bike = Bike.new
=> #<Bike:0x007f9a522d0e30 @broken=false>
station = DockingStation.new({capacity: 20})
=> #<DockingStation:0x007f9a5288f498 @capacity=20>
station.dock(bike)
=> [#<Bike:0x007f9a522d0e30 @broken=false>]
station.dock(broken_bike)
=> [#<Bike:0x007f9a522d0e30 @broken=false>, #<Bike:0x007f9a5287c190 @broken=true>]
station.available_bikes
=> [#<Bike:0x007f9a522d0e30 @broken=false>]

Loading a broken bike to the van and taking it to the garage to fix it:

van = Van.new({capacity: 50})
=> #<Van:0x007f9a521fc478 @capacity=50>
station.release_broken_bikes(van)
=> [#<Bike:0x007f9a5287c190 @broken=true>]
garage = Garage.new({capacity: 100})
=> #<Garage:0x007f9a5213a8c8 @capacity=100>
garage.accept_broken_bikes(van)
=> [#<Bike:0x007f9a5287c190 @broken=false>]
garage.bikes.count
=> 1

Collecting fixed bike from garage and delivering it to the docking station:

garage.release_fixed_bikes(van)
=> [#<Bike:0x007f9a5287c190 @broken=false>]
station.accept_working_bikes(van)
=> [#<Bike:0x007f9a522d0e30 @broken=false>, #<Bike:0x007f9a5287c190 @broken=false>]

Issues to be resolved

• Van duplicates functionality
