Examples:
- If you want data output in a file, output is stored in the output directory of the package
from tools import PeopleFileParser, AllocationWriter
persons = PeopleFileParser.line_to_person('filepath')
AllocationWriter.write_allocation(print_file=True)
- If you want data output to standard IO
from tools import PeopleFileParser, AllocationWriter
persons = PeopleFileParser.line_to_person('filepath')
AllocationWriter.write_allocation(print_stdio=True)
- Usually the case is that you want to create persons on the fly
from people import Person
from building import Amity
jane = Person('Jane', 'F').make_person('fellow', has_expr_interest=True)
# If the has_expr_interest isn't specified, it's set to False by default
jake = Person('Jake', 'M').make_person('staff')
Amity.add_persons(jake, jane)
- There is a Manager to assign persons to rooms
from people import Manager
Manager.assign_to_room('Person name', 'Room name')
# Both arguments passed in to the assign_to_room methods
# must be existent objects in Amity.people_collection
