Planing

• Listview (Rooms, Fixtures)
• Architecture (Activity, Adapter, AsyncTask, Model, PreferencesUtils, Constant)
• Weather API Periodically
• SwitchButton

Problems

• API rooms is not a array
• control onchange position of fixture
• how to handle Weather API Periodically

Solutions

• Loop JSONObject to get all the key

JSONObject rooms = new JSONObject(json).getJSONObject("rooms");
Iterator<String> keys = rooms.keys();

while(keys.hasNext()) {
    String key = keys.next();
    if (rooms.get(key) instanceof JSONObject) {
        Log.i("room", key);
        JSONObject room = (JSONObject) rooms.get(key);
        JSONArray roomFixtures = room.getJSONArray("fixtures");
        response.rooms.add(setFixtures(key, roomFixtures));
    }
}

• used Holder to handle getting the position of fixtures
• trying to use AlarmManager

Remaining Tasks

• Deployment (Heroku)
• Weather API Periodically

My Technical Choices

• Created a Room.class to structure the API
• Shared Preferences will store the RoomModel state and update when user switch any fixtures
• Created a asyncTask that allow passing a callback function with API call response
