1. Trainings 11/18
Advanced Java Things

2. Why Strongback? Similar to Command based, unlike other frameworks
Allows for testable code and simulations off robot

3. What’s different? Subsystem → Requirable
Command → Command (yes it is still the same, different methods)
Operator Interface → Switch Reactor
Sensors → A lot more sensor types
Angle Sensor
Gyroscope
Current Sensor
Distance Sensor
Switch
Voltage Sensor
And many more
Has a good logging system
Mock components which can be used for simulation off robot

4. How do I get it?

5. Let’s write a program!

6. Git 101: Let’s Git down to business

7. What is Git?
Version Control System - A system that records changes to a file or set of files over time so that you can recall specific versions later
How does it work?
Similar to Google Drive, but for code
Files are saved locally, and then pushed to a server for use later
Files can be retrieved from the server
Git allows for many people to work on the same set of code
We use Github for our “repositories” or sets of code

8. Tutorial
Let’s go through this tutorial to learn the basics of git

9. Git Practices
Everyone will work on forks and make Pull Requests (PRs) which will be reviewed by a lead
Commit Messages should always complete the sentence “This commit will ____”
Eg. git commit -m “Add new code”
Fills the sentence “This commit will add new code”
Labels will be used for the stage that a certain subsystem is on
Labels include: In Review, Testing, Rejected, Passed
All PRs MUST pass the Travis CI build
