InnoEvent

Laval GLO-2004 : Génie logiciel orienté objet

This project was done under the "Génie logiciel orienté objet" class at the Laval University - Quebec.

Software

Project

InnoEvent is an event creation software that allows you to define the seating plan for concerts, ballets and sports matches for example.
This software allows to configure the room plan of different ways through its different features.
You can find the subject (in French) at the root directory.

Room sections

Thus, it is possible to add sections spread around a single scene. These sections can be general admission sections (standing) or seat sections. For these two categories of section, two types can be distinguished: regular sections corresponding to rectangular-shaped sections and irregular sections corresponding to sections of any shape.

Places pricing

After representing your room with the stage and its multiple sections, different options for prices are available. First of all, it is possible to assign prices manually in choosing to associate a price with one or more seats, one or more rows see even one or more sections.
For this option, quote the price for a seat and associate a colour if the price has never been awarded.
Otherwise, the price distribution can be automated. So, you just have to indicate the income total of the sale, the minimum price and / or the maximum price for a seat.
The price distribution is then automatically performed according to the position from the seat to the center of the stage. In addition, for each seat (s), row (s) or section (s), an association with one or more offers is feasible. These offers can be created, modified, added, deleted by the user. The user chooses the attribution of these offers according to his desires and the income total desired.

This software makes it possible to have a room plan in accordance with the reality with a precise disposition of our elements, a distribution of prices flexible according to our wishes and a management of effective offers.

Graphical Engine

InnoEvent was design with modularity in mind so the graphical engine can be totally separated from the program and can be used as a library: jfx-ShapeEngine

Website

InnoEvent software has the possibility to export a room to JSON and can be import in website we made for place selling: Website
Website sources

Pricing service

Our pricing gestion is developed as a service so it can be separated from our project: PlacePricingService

Validator service

This validator class is aim to handle forms errors, we developed it as a service so it can be separated from our project as well: Validator

Install .dmg on macos

If you plan to install directly the software without building it from the sources, here are instructions for macos (tested on Macos Mojave).

Download the .dmg version of InnoEvent you wish to use from the releases page : https://github.com/remigastaldi/InnoEvent/releases

Open the .dmg file, it should pop up a contextual menu. Drag & drop the .app to your applications folder. You can't run directly the .app because of some security protections from Macos that doesn't allow you to execute application that doesn't came from the App Store or trusted developers. You can bypass this security protection by adding an exception for InnoEvent.

Open the applications folder from finder and find the InnoEvent app (a18-glo-equipe8.app). Keep the control key pressured on your keyboad and then right click on the application and select "Open" from the contextual menu. It should open an other popup menu that ask you if you are sure to open the app, even if it doesn't came from a trusted developer. Macos allow you to check twice if the file came from github, which is the correct way to download InnoEvent so just click on "Open".

InnoEvent is now in your exceptions applications list and can be executed like other applications, from your dock, spotlight or launchpad.

Run the project

Ensure to have java8 JRE, JDK and javaFX in your PATH.

With sources

First, generate gradle wrapper with:

gradle wrapper

Directly run software

./gradlew jfxrun 

Build jar from source

./gradlew jfxjar

Now you can run the jar under build/jfx/app with:

java -jar project-jfx.jar

Build native binary

./gradlew jfxnative

The native binary is under build/jfx/native/InnoEvent/
