• The foundational code that handles the operations on the system inventory.
• Implemented as a singleton so that only one shared inventory can be in exist at a time.
• Inventory file works using Inventory.json to first load in the inventory. When the inventory is destroyed it exports the current inventory to the same file.
• Json file operation performed using the external library Json for Modern C++ by nlohmann

• Menu selects between customer and employee interface
• Employee and customer interface instantiate using singletons
• Employees have the options of print inventory, search for item, add item to inventory, delete item from inventory, edit album artist, price, and units, and logout.
• Customers have the options of print inventory, search for item, add item to cart, delete from cart, view cart, checkout cart, and logout.

• Created different interface classes for Employees and Customers using factory design pattern

• Employee Interface class has the ability of full control over the Inventory.json
• Can Add and Delete items from the Inventory.json
• Can change the artist, price, and unit counts in the inventory for a given album
• Can print the inventory and search for a specific item in the inventory
• All changes to inventory by Employee reflected in the Change Log text file with each action being time stamped

• Customer Interface has the ability to look for items and put them into a cart for purchase
• Can pick items from Inventory.json and put them into cart container
• Can remove items from their cart before purchase and put them back into the inventory
• Can view their cart before purchase
• Purchasing their cart removes the items in it and outputs a receipt to a time stamped text file
• Can also print and search for items in the Inventory.json

The JSON library can be installed with the following command: apt install nlohmann-json3-dev This program is specifically for Ubuntu 20.04 and also uses g++, cmake, gcov, and valgrind.

in /RecordStoreManagementSystem mkdir Build cd Build cmake .. make ./runSystem

• Upon program start, user will be prompted to log in as a Customer or Employee.
• Once a selection has been made, the user can do various actions based on the prompts on the screen, such as searching the inventory, making a purchase, or adding an item depending on the options chosen.
• Users can log out and log back into a different option at any time, without stopping the program.
• Reciepts are printed after purchase inside the directory the program was ran.

• After cloning the repository, the main program is ran out of the build directory.
• Navigate to the build directory and run 'cmake ..' to update the make file, then run 'make' to compile the program.
• Run the command './runSystem' to start the program. From there the main menu will pop up with the possible options.

• Directory used to run system tests as well as gcov. Run the following commands to perform the tests:
• make
• make run
• make gcov
• After the commands above are run, the testing results and the the gcov results will be printed.

• Docker containter can be built using provided Dockerfile Alternatively dockerhub repo with image provided: Dockerhub Since this is a terminal application, "run interactive" will need to be selected in order to use program with docker.
