Welcome to the third lesson of our "Applying Design Patterns to Real-World Problems in Rust" course! 🎉 In this lesson, we'll explore two powerful design patterns: the Command pattern and the Decorator pattern. These patterns will empower you to design a robust and flexible smart home automation and lighting control system in Rust. Let's embark on this journey to create a system that's as adaptable as it is efficient! 🚀
In this lesson, we'll dive deep into implementing the Command and Decorator patterns. Here's what we'll cover:
- Define Smart Home Appliances: Create a simple
Appliance
struct with methods to control devices. - Implement the Command Pattern: Develop a
Command
trait, concrete command structs (TurnOnCommand
,TurnOffCommand
), and anAutomationController
invoker to manage and execute commands. - Implement the Light Trait and Decorators: Define a
Light
trait and create decorators (BasicLight
,DimmableLight
,ColorChangingLight
) to enhance light functionality dynamically.
