Le Médiateur est un patron de conception comportemental qui diminue le couplage entre les composants d’un programme, en les faisant communiquer indirectement, via un objet médiateur spécial.
Le médiateur rend la modification, l’extension et la réutilisation de composants individuels aisées, car ils ne dépendent plus d’une dizaine de classes.
Exemple conceptuel
Dans cet exemple, nous allons voir la structure du Médiateur 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.

Client triggers operation A.
Component 1 does A.
Mediator reacts on A and triggers following operations:
Component 2 does C.
Client triggers operation D.
Component 2 does D.
Mediator reacts on D and triggers following operations:
Component 1 does B.
Component 2 does C.
