Structure observations

  • Architecturally prominent files are ranked from entry points and role-named declarations; resource-only paths are omitted.
  • Primary languages: Swift.
  • The verified tree contains 4 project/configuration file(s) and 28 source declaration(s).

Overall architecture

Reference code

EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp.swift:11 — architecture anchor

@main
struct EnergyKitSampleApp: App {
    var body: some Scene {
        WindowGroup {
            ContentView()
        }
        .modelContainer(for: ChargingLocation.self)
    }
}

Interpretation

The arrows summarize the source-visible entry, role-named types or folders, and framework direction; when nodes come from structural folders, the sequence is a high-level interpretation rather than proof that every adjacent node calls the next. Ownership is claimed only where the next section cites a stored property or assignment. The diagram is intentionally limited to the dominant path into EnergyKit.

Ownership and state

Ownership evidence

EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift:15 — stored dependency or nearest verified ownership anchor

    var chargingWindow: DateInterval = .init(start: Date(), end: Date().addingTimeInterval(60 * 60 * 10))
    /// An incremental portion of the simulation, in seconds.
    var timestep: TimeInterval = 60

    // MARK: Electric Vehicle (EV)
    /// The configuration of the EV.
    var configuration: ElectricVehicle
Owner Object or state Relationship Mutation authority
ElectricVehicleController DateInterval (chargingWindow) owns value state App/module collaborators
ElectricVehicleController TimeInterval (timestep) stores or receives App/module collaborators
ElectricVehicleController ElectricVehicle (configuration) stores or receives App/module collaborators
ElectricVehicleController Array (snapshots) owns value state App/module collaborators

Composition arrows indicate a source-visible construction expression or locally owned value state; aggregation means the owner stores or receives a dependency without proving exclusive lifetime ownership.

Class and protocol design

EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp.swift:12 — representative type boundary

struct EnergyKitSampleApp: App {
    // ...
}
Type Responsibility Depends on or conforms to
EnergyKitSampleApp Application entry and top-level composition App
ElectricVehicleController View lifecycle, callbacks, and feature coordination Concrete collaborators/imported frameworks
EnergyVenueManager Long-lived feature or framework coordination Concrete collaborators/imported frameworks
EVDetailsView User-interface presentation and input forwarding View
ContentView User-interface presentation and input forwarding View
ChargingLocationView User-interface presentation and input forwarding View
AttributeValueTextView User-interface presentation and input forwarding View
UUIDTextView User-interface presentation and input forwarding View
EVView User-interface presentation and input forwarding View
LoadEventDetailView User-interface presentation and input forwarding View

No local protocol conformance is claimed as protocol-oriented design; external framework conformances are listed only as dependencies.

Access control

Symbol Access Verified effect Likely rationale
energyRequiredToFullCharge (EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift:91) fileprivate Use is restricted to this source file. Inference: share with same-file helpers or extensions without exposing the symbol module-wide.
calculateEVChargingSchedule (EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift:98) fileprivate Use is restricted to this source file. Inference: share with same-file helpers or extensions without exposing the symbol module-wide.
selectingChargingIntervals (EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift:102) fileprivate Use is restricted to this source file. Inference: share with same-file helpers or extensions without exposing the symbol module-wide.
selectCleanestChargingIntervals (EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift:122) fileprivate Use is restricted to this source file. Inference: share with same-file helpers or extensions without exposing the symbol module-wide.

Reference code

EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift:91 — representative boundary

    fileprivate func energyRequiredToFullCharge() -> Double {
        if configuration.properties.desiredStateOfCharge <= configuration.state.stateOfCharge {
            return 0
        }
        return configuration.properties.batteryCapacity * (configuration.properties.desiredStateOfCharge - configuration.state.stateOfCharge) / 100
    }

Swift declarations without a modifier are internal; explicit private, fileprivate, private(set), public, or open entries above are interpreted by language semantics. Objective-C/C samples instead rely on header and implementation boundaries, which are not equivalent to Swift lexical privacy.

Logic ownership and placement

Logic Owning type or file Placement rationale
Application entry and top-level composition EnergyKitSampleApp The source’s App suffix makes this role explicit.
View lifecycle, callbacks, and feature coordination ElectricVehicleController The source’s Controller suffix makes this role explicit.
Long-lived feature or framework coordination EnergyVenueManager The source’s Manager suffix makes this role explicit.
User-interface presentation and input forwarding AttributeValueTextView, ChargingLocationView, ContentView, EVDetailsView The source’s View suffix makes this role explicit.

Design patterns

Pattern Source evidence Purpose or tradeoff
View-controller organization EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift:12 A controller is the verified coordination boundary; this is MVC-style only where a separate model is present.

Naming conventions

  • Types: App: EnergyKitSampleApp; Controller: ElectricVehicleController; Manager: EnergyVenueManager; View: AttributeValueTextView, ChargingLocationView, ContentView, EVDetailsView, EVView.
  • Protocols: no local protocol declaration in the scanned source.
  • Methods: setElectricityGuidance, setEnergyVenue, energyRequiredToFullCharge, calculateEVChargingSchedule, selectingChargingIntervals, selectCleanestChargingIntervals, guidanceIntervalIsInChargingWindow, simulateCharging.
  • Files: EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp.swift, EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicleController.swift, EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/EnergyVenueManager.swift, EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Views/EV/EVDetailsView.swift, EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/Models/ElectricVehicle/ElectricVehicle.swift, EnergyKitSampleApp/EnergyKitSampleApp/ContentView.swift.

Architecture takeaways

  • EnergyKitSampleApp is the main source-visible entry or composition anchor for this sample.
  • Framework work reaches SwiftUI, EnergyKit, Charts, SwiftData through a deliberately small high-level chain; the detailed API graph remains inside the cited implementation files.
  • Stored-property evidence identifies lifecycle collaboration; it does not by itself prove exclusive object ownership.
  • Access-control conclusions separate verified language visibility from the likely design rationale.
  • The source does not justify labeling the design protocol-oriented.
