Delivery manager, project required for the exam of the "Programmazione a Oggetti" course at UniMoRe.
The program has two access modes: admin and user, the users can create deliveries and view what they have previously created. The admin account can view all the submitted deliveries, and it can change its state only if the automatic delivery is disabled. If it's enabled then he can only remove packets that can no longer change (ex. received packets).

The project is written in Java 11, mostly because it's the version required by the only supported JavaFX version, not many of the newer features are used but still a JVM with version 11+ is required for both compilation and runtime.
Most of the UI is controlled trough JavaFX' Beans and Properties, that use a declarative paradigm to signal data changes. This choice is also reflected in the data storage system, it has the obvious benefits of being simple to use, but it makes the code not really versatile. In a real-world program the declarative paradigm should be interfaced to a database (with some glue code for the change signaling). Due to this the async part of the program will only compute the changes to make in another thread, running the code to commit these changes in the UI thread.
For more details and an overview of the code check the javadoc.
This project uses maven as the dependency manager, so you can find all the used dependency in the pom.xml file
Serializes and deserializes the program data from/to JSON
Finds save directories in an OS-independent way
Manages the logs
Shortens a lot of java constructs (getters, setters, constructors). Unfortunately due to some technical details involving maven javadoc generation all the source code needs to be located in src/main/lombok instead of src/main/java for the annotation preprocessor to work correctly.
An UI library, a more modern alternative to Java Swing.
A lightweight library that uses some of the Java 8 functional features to give a more pleasant and performant interface to the JavaFX Bindings
This project uses maven as its dependency manager, to run the code you have
to install maven and run mvn package in the main project directory, this will
download all the necessary dependencies and compile the project.
The generated executable fat-jar will be available in target/deliveru.jar.
You can run it with java -jar target/deliveru.jar
Install maven and run mvn javadoc:javadoc, the generated HTML page can be
found in target/site/apidocs
