Le Monteur est un patron de conception de création qui permet de construire des objets complexes étape par étape.
Le monteur n’est pas comme les autres patrons de création : les produits n’ont pas besoin d’avoir une interface commune. Il est ainsi possible de créer différents produits en utilisant le même procédé de fabrication.
Exemple conceptuel
Dans cet exemple, nous allons voir la structure du Monteur et répondre aux questions suivantes :
Que contiennent les classes ?
Quels rôles jouent-elles ?
Comment les éléments du patron sont-ils reliés ?
Après avoir étudié la structure du patron, vous pourrez plus facilement comprendre l’exemple suivant qui est basé sur un cas d’utilisation réel en Swift.

import XCTest
/// The Builder interface specifies methods for creating the different parts of
/// the Product objects.
protocol Builder {
func producePartA()
func producePartB()
func producePartC()
}
/// The Concrete Builder classes follow the Builder interface and provide
/// specific implementations of the building steps. Your program may have
/// several variations of Builders, implemented differently.
class ConcreteBuilder1: Builder {
/// A fresh builder instance should contain a blank product object, which is
/// used in further assembly.
private var product = Product1()
func reset() {
product = Product1()
}
/// All production steps work with the same product instance.
func producePartA() {
product.add(part: "PartA1")
}
func producePartB() {
product.add(part: "PartB1")
}
func producePartC() {
product.add(part: "PartC1")
}
/// Concrete Builders are supposed to provide their own methods for
/// retrieving results. That's because various types of builders may create
/// entirely different products that don't follow the same interface.
/// Therefore, such methods cannot be declared in the base Builder interface
/// (at least in a statically typed programming language).
///
/// Usually, after returning the end result to the client, a builder
/// instance is expected to be ready to start producing another product.
/// That's why it's a usual practice to call the reset method at the end of
/// the `getProduct` method body. However, this behavior is not mandatory,
/// and you can make your builders wait for an explicit reset call from the
/// client code before disposing of the previous result.
func retrieveProduct() -> Product1 {
let result = self.product
reset()
return result
}
}
/// The Director is only responsible for executing the building steps in a
/// particular sequence. It is helpful when producing products according to a
/// specific order or configuration. Strictly speaking, the Director class is
/// optional, since the client can control builders directly.
class Director {
private var builder: Builder?
/// The Director works with any builder instance that the client code passes
/// to it. This way, the client code may alter the final type of the newly
/// assembled product.

self.builder = builder

/// The Director can construct several product variations using the same
/// building steps.
func buildMinimalViableProduct() {

builder?.producePartA()
builder?.producePartB()
builder?.producePartC()
}
}
/// It makes sense to use the Builder pattern only when your products are quite
/// complex and require extensive configuration.
///
/// Unlike in other creational patterns, different concrete builders can produce
/// unrelated products. In other words, results of various builders may not
/// always follow the same interface.
class Product1 {
private var parts = [String]()
func add(part: String) {
self.parts.append(part)
}
func listParts() -> String {
return "Product parts: " + parts.joined(separator: ", ") + "\n"

/// initiates the construction process. The end result is retrieved from the
/// builder object.

// Remember, the Builder pattern can be used without a Director class.
print("Custom product:")
builder.producePartA()
builder.producePartC()
