PikaBot project template

This is a project template for a greenfield Java project. Given below are instructions on how to use it.

Setting up in Intellij

Prerequisites: JDK 11, update Intellij to the most recent version.

1. Open Intellij (if you are not in the welcome screen, click File > Close Project to close the existing project first)

2. Open the project into Intellij as follows:

   1. Click Open.
   2. Select the project directory, and click OK.
   3. If there are any further prompts, accept the defaults.

3. Configure the project to use JDK 11 (not other versions) as explained in here.
   In the same dialog, set the Project language level field to the SDK default option.

4. After that, locate the src/main/java/pikabot/Launcher.java file, right-click it, and choose Run Launcher.main() (if the code editor is showing compile errors, try restarting the IDE). If the setup is correct, you should see something like the below as the output:

     _________________________________
     Hello! I'm PikaBot
     What can I do for you? シ
     _________________________________
   
   

5. Here is a list of commands that you can enter to use PikaBot:

   • todo <your_task> : adds a Todo task
   • event <your_task> /at <YYYY-MM-DD> : adds an Event task
   • deadline <your_task> /by <YYYY-MM-DD> : adds a Deadline task
   • delete <task_number> : deletes a task
   • list : view a numbered list of all your current tasks
   • find <keyword> : finds tasks containing a specific keyword
   • mark <task_number> : mark a task as done
   • unmark <task_number> : unmark a task

6. If you are familiar with PikaBot, shorter aliases for key commands can also be used!

   • t for todo
   • e for event
   • d for deadline
   • del for delete
   • m for mark
   • um for unmark
