Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of terminal technology, and in particular to an icon updating device, an apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium. Background Art

[0002] In the process of launching an APP on the AppStore, the code needs to be packaged into an ipa package and submitted to the Apple system for review. However, in the current online technology, the same ipa package can only support the release of one set of application icons (AppIcon). When APP developers need to update the AppIcon uniformly, they can only replace the new AppIcon with the development code project, repackage the code into an ipa package, and submit it to the Apple review system for review. Only after passing the review can the application icon in the AppStore be updated. This icon update method is relatively cumbersome and inflexible, and frequent packaging of ipa packages wastes computing resources.

[0034] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an icon update method, comprising: configuring at least one set of application icons in the same ipa package, setting different labels for different application icons, and responding to an update instruction, selecting a corresponding icon according to the label for update.

[0035] Figure 1 The system architecture 100 of the icon updating method and device according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown. It should be noted that: Figure 1 The examples shown are merely examples of system architectures to which the embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied, in order to help those skilled in the art understand the technical content of the present disclosure, but do not mean that the embodiments of the present disclosure may not be used in other devices, systems, environments or scenarios.

[0036] like Figure 1As shown, the system architecture 100 according to this embodiment may include a terminal 101, a network 102 and a server 103. The network 102 is used to provide a communication link between the terminal 101 and the server 103.

[0037] Terminal 101 may include, for example, a smart phone, an iPad, a laptop computer, an intelligent robot, etc. Various APPs may be installed on smart phones, iPads, laptop computers, and intelligent robots. For example, smart phones, iPads, and laptop computers may be installed with QQ application software, WeChat application software, mobile banking, Rong e-link, Rong e-shopping, ICBC e-life, etc., and various APPs have corresponding application icons. Network 102 may include various connection types, such as wired, wireless communication links, or optical fiber cables, etc. Server 103 may be a server for icon updates. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, in the process of updating icons, server 103 configures multiple sets of application icons in the same ipa package, sets different labels for different application icons, and sends the ipa configured with multiple sets of application icons to terminal 101 through network 102. Terminal 101 receives the update instruction sent by server 103 through network 102, and in response to the update instruction, selects the corresponding icon according to the label for update. For example, terminal 101 can be an Apple smartphone, and server 103 configures multiple sets of AppIcon in an ipa package based on App Icons Source and distinguishes them by bundleID+version number+serial number, and sends them to the Apple smartphone through network 102. After selecting the update in the APPStore, the ipa package is installed on the user's mobile phone, and the ipa package displays the updated AppIcon according to bundleID+version number+serial number.

[0038] It should be noted that the icon update method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can be executed by the server 103. Accordingly, the icon update provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can be set in the server 103. Alternatively, the icon update method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be executed by a server or a server cluster that is different from the server 103 and can communicate with the terminal 101 and / or the server 103. Accordingly, the icon update device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be set in a server or a server cluster that is different from the server 103 and can communicate with the terminal 101 and / or the server 103. Alternatively, the terminal provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be partially executed by the server 103 and partially executed by the terminal 101. Correspondingly, the icon update device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be partially set in the server 103 and partially set in the terminal 101.

[0039] It should be understood that Figure 1The number of terminals, networks and servers in the embodiment is only for illustration. Any number of electronic devices, networks and servers may be provided as required.

[0040] The icon update method provided by the disclosed embodiment can be applied to the field of financial service technology. Taking banks as an example, with the development of the Internet, more and more customers complete corresponding business functions through smart phones. For example, users have installed mobile banking, Rong e-link, Rong e-shopping, ICBC e-life and other applications on their smart phones. Some customers can purchase financial products of interest through Rong e-link, and can also make consumer purchases through Rong e-shopping. When holidays are approaching, the application icons of APPs such as mobile banking, Rong e-link, Rong e-shopping, ICBC e-life, etc. need to be updated according to demand. For example, when May Day is approaching, the application icon corresponding to ICBC e-life needs to be set to the form of icon plus May Day, when November is approaching, the application icon corresponding to ICBC e-life needs to be set to the form of icon plus eleven, and when the Spring Festival is approaching, the application icon corresponding to ICBC e-life needs to be set to the form of icon plus Spring Festival. If the existing online process is adopted, the updated icons need to be repackaged and sent to the system for review every holiday. By adopting the icon update method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the ICBC e-life icon corresponding to May 1st, the ICBC e-life icon corresponding to National Day, the ICBC e-life icon corresponding to the Spring Festival and ordinary icons (no need to add icons marked with holidays) are configured in the same ipa package at the same time, and they are distinguished based on bundleID+version number+serial number. When holidays such as May 1st, National Day and the Spring Festival are approaching, different icons can be flexibly updated in the same ipa package based on bundleID+version number+serial number, without the need to repackage every time an update is made.

[0041] The icon update method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be used in the field of e-commerce, etc. For example, with the development of e-commerce, more and more users purchase goods through mobile phone APPs, and on different holidays, the APPs for purchasing goods are updated to remind users that holidays are coming and there may be promotions and other activities to increase the probability of clicking on the APP to purchase goods. At this time, the icon update method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be used to configure the icons of the purchase APP corresponding to May 1, the purchase APP corresponding to October 1, the purchase APP corresponding to the Spring Festival, and ordinary icons (no need to add holiday-marked icons) in the same ipa package at the same time, and distinguish them based on bundleID+version number+serial number. Then, when holidays such as May 1, October 1, and the Spring Festival are approaching, different icons can be flexibly updated in the same ipa package based on bundleID+version number+serial number, without the need to repackage every time an update is made.

[0042] It should be understood that the icon update method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is not limited to the application in the fields of financial services technology and e-commerce. The above description is only exemplary. For other related fields that require icon updates, the icon update method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can be used to update icons.

[0043] Figure 2 The flowchart of icon updating according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the icon updating method may include, for example, operations S201 to S203.

[0045] In operation S201, at least one set of application icons is configured in the same ipa package.

[0046] In operation S202, different labels are set for different application icons.

[0047] In operation S203, in response to the update instruction, the corresponding icon is selected according to the tag for update.

[0048] Based on the icon update method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, since multiple sets of application icons are configured in the same ipa package and different labels are set to distinguish them, during the icon update process, multiple sets of icons can be updated based on the same ipa package according to different labels. This icon update method is flexible and simple, saves computing resources, and avoids the problem of repackaging the ipa package for each update in the prior art.

[0049] In the following, the IOS system is taken as an example. Figure 2 The icon update method shown is further explained.

[0050] Figure 3 A flowchart of a method for configuring at least one set of application icons in the same ipa package according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the method may include, for example, operation S301.

[0052] In operation S301, at least one set of application icons is configured in the same ipa package based on App Icons Source.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the App Icons Source in the development code project supports configuring multiple sets of AppIcons at the same time, and setting different labels for different application icons.

[0054] In the first embodiment of the present invention, different labels can be set for different application icons using bundleID+version number+serial number. Among them, bundleid is the unique identifier of the application, and there is a unique correspondence between the application and the bundle ID. In program development, bundleID is the unique identifier of the program, and the difference between a program and the system is the bundleID. The version number is the identification number of the application version, and the version number enables the user to understand whether the application used is the latest version and the functions and facilities it provides. Each version number can be divided into two parts: the major version number and the minor version number. The serial number refers to the unique identifier authorized by the software to the user. Only after obtaining the serial number can the full functions of the software be used normally. For example, com.icbc.elife+4.0.6+1 can represent a set of application icon labels, where com.icbc.elife is the bundleID, 4.0.6 is the version number, and 1 is the serial number.

[0055] The method for generating labels provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is based on the combination of bundleID+version number+serial number as the labels corresponding to different application icons, so that different application icons can be accurately distinguished according to different labels in the same ipa package, and then the application icons to be updated can be accurately selected according to the labels for updating, and the updated application icons can be installed on the terminal.

[0056] Figure 4 A flowchart of a method for setting different labels for different application icons according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0057] like Figure 4 As shown, the method may include, for example, operation S401.

[0058] In operation S401, all application icons with tags are packaged in a plist file.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, different application icons can be stored in the same plist file in the form of key-value pairs. Figure 5As shown, add the key of Icon files in the Info.plist file of the project. The type of this key is Dictionary. It corresponds to the defaulticon, chooseicon1, chooseicon2, ..., chooseiconn for selection. Continuing with the above example, for example, defaulticon can correspond to the default icon of ICBC e-Life, that is, the icon displayed when it is not a holiday, chooseicon1 can correspond to the application icon of ICBC e-Life that needs to be updated on May 1st, chooseicon2 corresponds to the application icon of ICBC e-Life that needs to be updated on October 1st, and chooseicon3 corresponds to the application icon of ICBC e-Life that needs to be updated on the Spring Festival. When updating the ICBC e-Life icon according to the tag generated by bundleID+version number+serial number, choosing chooseicon1 means updating the current ICBC e-Life application icon to the application icon that needs to be updated on May 1st, choosing chooseicon2 means updating the current ICBC e-Life application icon to the application icon that needs to be updated on October 1st, and choosing chooseicon3 means updating the current ICBC e-Life application icon to the application icon that needs to be updated on the Spring Festival.

[0060] In the disclosed embodiment, all application icons with labels are encapsulated in a plist file, which can facilitate the subsequent call of icons during updates. In addition, different application icons in the same plist file are stored in the form of key-value pairs, which can better distinguish different application icons in the same ipa package, so as to further ensure the update of multiple sets of icons based on the same ipa package.

[0061] Figure 6 The flowchart of the method for updating the corresponding icon according to the tag selection according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0062] like Figure 6 As shown, the operation may include, for example, operations S601 to S603.

[0063] In operation S601, an application icon to be updated is selected according to a tag.

[0064] In the disclosed embodiment, a module provided by itunnesConnect that can select other AppIcons pre-installed in the ipa package can be used to select and distinguish different pre-installed AppIcons according to bundleID+version number+serial number.

[0065] In operation S602, the application icon to be updated is searched in the APPStore so that the open button is switched to the update button.

[0066] In the disclosed embodiment, the APPStore display update module can be used. After the other AppIcons pre-made in the ipa package selected by itunnesConnect management in the previous step take effect, the display of "Open" changes to "Update" after searching for the APP in the APPStore, and the selected updated AppIcon icon is displayed in the APPStore.

[0067] In operation S603, an update button is clicked to install the application icon to be updated.

[0068] In the disclosed embodiment, an ipa package may be used to select and display a preset AppIcon module. After the user selects to update in the APPStore, the ipa package is installed to the user terminal, and the ipa package displays the updated AppIcon according to bundleID+version number+serial number.

[0069] Continuing with the above example, the user's terminal is a smart phone with the ICBC e-Life application installed on it. When the May Day holiday is approaching, when the AppIcon (chooseicon1) corresponding to the May Day holiday pre-made by ICBC e-Life in the ipa package is not selected, after the user searches for ICBC e-Life in the APPStore, only "Open" is displayed, and no update is displayed. The user will select the default icon (defaulticon) corresponding to ICBC e-Life to open it. After selecting the AppIcon corresponding to the May Day holiday pre-made by ICBC e-Life in the ipa package, the user will search for ICBC e-Life in the APPStore, and the original display of "Open" will switch to "Update". After the user clicks "Update", the default icon (defaulticon) corresponding to ICBC e-Life will no longer be selected, but the AppIcon (chooseicon1) corresponding to the May Day holiday pre-made by ICBC e-Life will be installed to the user's mobile phone according to the bundleID+version number+serial number of the AppIcon corresponding to the May Day holiday pre-made by ICBC e-Life. Since the ipa package is not only configured with the AppIcon (chooseicon1) corresponding to May Day pre-made by ICBC e-life, but also configured with the AppIcon (chooseicon2, chooseicon3) corresponding to National Day or Spring Festival pre-made by ICBC e-life, similarly, when National Day or Spring Festival is coming, after selecting the AppIcon (chooseicon2) corresponding to National Day pre-made by ICBC e-life in the ipa package, the user searches for ICBC e-life in the APPStore, and the original "Open" will switch to "Update". After the user clicks "Update", the AppIcon (chooseicon2, chooseicon3) corresponding to National Day or Spring Festival pre-made by ICBC e-life will be installed to the user's mobile phone according to the bundleID+version number+serial number of the AppIcon) corresponding to National Day or Spring Festival pre-made by ICBC e-life. This method configures the AppIcon corresponding to each holiday in the same ipa package, and the same ipa can be used to update the icon on different holidays, without packaging an ipa package for each holiday. This makes the way of updating icons simple and flexible, saves resources, and enables users to experience different application icons at different times to improve user experience.

[0070] In summary, the icon update method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure configures multiple sets of application icons in the same ipa package and sets different tags to distinguish them, so that in the process of icon update, multiple sets of icons can be updated based on the same ipa package according to different tags. This icon update method is flexible and simple, saves computing resources, and avoids the problem of repackaging the ipa package for each update in the prior art. Furthermore, since the label is based on the combination of bundleID+version number+serial number, different application icons can be accurately distinguished in the same ipa package, so that the application icon to be updated can be accurately updated. Furthermore, all application icons with labels are encapsulated in a plist file, which can facilitate the subsequent call during icon update, and different application icons in the same plist file are stored in the form of key-value pairs, which can better distinguish different application icons in the same ipa package, so as to further ensure the update of multiple sets of icons based on the same ipa package.

[0071] Figure 7 The block diagram schematically shows a device for updating icons according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0072] like Figure 7 As shown, the icon updating apparatus 700 may include, for example, a configuration module 710 , a setting module 720 , and an updating module 730 .

[0073] The configuration module 710 is used to configure at least one set of application icons in the same ipa package. Specifically, at least one set of application icons can be configured in the same ipa package based on AppIcons Source.

[0074] The setting module 720 is used to set different labels for different application icons, and specifically, different labels can be set for different application icons according to bundle ID, version number, and serial number.

[0075] The updating module 730 is used to respond to the updating instruction and select the corresponding icon for updating according to the tag.

[0076] Figure 8 The block diagram of the update module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0077] like Figure 8 As shown, the updating module 730 may include, for example, a selecting unit 731 , a switching unit 732 , and an updating unit 733 .

[0078] The selection unit 731 is used to select the application icon to be updated according to the tag.

[0079] The switching unit 732 is used to search the application icon to be updated in the APPStore so that the open button is switched to the update button.

[0080] The updating unit 733 is used to click the update button to install the application icon to be updated.

[0081] Fig. 9 A block diagram of an icon updating device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0082] like Fig. 9 As shown, the icon updating device 700 may further include a packaging module 740 , for example.

[0083] The encapsulation module is used to encapsulate all application icons with labels in a plist file. Specifically, different application icons in the same plist file can be stored in the form of key-value pairs.

[0084] According to the embodiments of the present invention, any one or more of the modules, submodules, units, and subunits, or at least part of the functions of any one of them can be implemented in one module.

Alternatively, according to the embodiments of the present invention, one or more of the modules, submodules, units, and subunits can be at least partially implemented as computer program modules, and when the computer program modules are run, the corresponding functions can be performed.

[0085] For example, any multiple of the configuration module 710, the setting module 720, the update module 730, and the encapsulation module 740 can be combined in one module / unit / sub-unit for implementation, or any one of the modules / units / sub-units can be split into multiple modules / units / sub-units. Alternatively, at least part of the functions of one or more of these modules / units / sub-units can be combined with at least part of the functions of other modules / units / sub-units and implemented in one module / unit / sub-unit. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one of the configuration module 710, the setting module 720, the update module 730, and the encapsulation module 740 can be at least partially implemented as a hardware circuit, such as a field programmable gate array (FPGA), a programmable logic array (PLA), a system on a chip, a system on a substrate, a system on a package, an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), or can be implemented by hardware or firmware such as any other reasonable way of integrating or encapsulating the circuit, or implemented in any one of the three implementation methods of software, hardware, and firmware or in a suitable combination of any of them.
