/**
* The purpose of this method is to register the resource based on their category. Because
* different category has different fields. All the loops are supposed to be the same so by doing
* this way we avoid duplicated code. To make this fit in the open-closed principle, we use
* strategy pattern. Because every time we want to register new category or want to change the way
* how we register it, we can make new classes. This Register class remains closed. Actually, all
* the strategy class should be put into different folders. I didn't do that because Strategy
* Pattern for this is already an overkill for this because or the register strategy class is so
* simple. But this can be viewed as left for further extensibility. For example, one may come up
* with new data format to register pictures.
