Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of data processing, and in particular to a cross-platform data replication method and related devices. Background Art

[0002] When using an electronic device for data processing, a common function used by users is copying. Users can copy content such as pictures and text from browser A to browser B, or from browser A to document editing software C. At the underlying logic, cross-platform data replication is achieved through copy instructions. Users can copy the content to be copied into the clipboard built into the electronic device, and then when the user enters a paste instruction, the electronic device copies the content in the clipboard to the object pointed to by the paste instruction.

[0003] In this copying method, users can only copy some types of relatively simple data, such as simple text or pictures. If the picture itself has been processed, for example, on the online document editing page of browser A, the picture is tilted at a certain angle, but when the picture is copied to the document editing page of browser B, only the normally placed image will be displayed on browser B, rather than the tilted image. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Optionally, the paste module is specifically configured to:

[0032] When the text data returned by the database for the identifier is detected, convert the text data according to the data type to obtain the copied data;

[0033] Paste the copied data according to the paste object in the paste instruction.

[0034] A computer-readable storage medium stores one or more programs, and the one or more programs can be executed by one or more processors to implement the steps in any of the cross-platform data copying methods described above.

[0044] Beneficial effects: The present invention provides a cross-platform data replication method and related devices. When a user uses a certain platform and the platform detects a replication instruction, it first converts the object of the replication instruction into text data in text format. Then, the text data is sent to a database. The database stores the text data and returns an identifier. When the user needs to paste, a paste instruction is input to another platform, the identifier is found in the clipboard, and the identifier is sent to the database so that the database retrieves according to the identifier to obtain the previously stored text data. The database feeds back the text data to another platform, and the other platform that receives the text data then converts the text data into replication data and performs the paste. In this process, the content being replicated is no longer media such as pictures and music, but the data after these contents are texturized. On the one hand, the device can save more complex parameters. On the second hand, the replicated content is stored in the database rather than the clipboard, so the content on the clipboard is less and will not affect the operation of the device itself. On the third hand, replication and pasting are no longer limited to a single electronic device. If the database is a cloud database, cross-electronic device data replication and pasting can also be achieved. Description of the Drawings

[0052] As Figure 1 shown, the present embodiment provides a cross-platform data replication method. For the convenience of description, a common server is used as the execution subject for description. Here, the server can be replaced by devices with data processing functions such as tablets and computers. The cross-platform data replication method includes the following steps:

[0053] S10. When a replication instruction is detected, convert the replication data corresponding to the replication instruction into text data.

[0054] Specifically, when the user uses Platform A, a replication instruction is sent to the server. The replication instruction includes the object to be replicated, that is, the replication data. Common replication instructions are such as "ctrl+c" or "command+c".

[0055] In one replication mode, the data type of the replication data is text type. The text type itself includes the text itself in the replication data, and also includes text formats, etc. After obtaining the replication instruction, convert the text, text formats, etc. of the text type into text data for recording the replication data information. For example, if the replication object is "I" with a size of 4 and a font of regular script, the converted text data is "Font: regular script, Font size: 4; Text content: I".

[0056] In another replication method, the data type of the replicated data is a media type, and the media type includes picture type, music type, and / or video type. Taking the picture type as an example, the picture type can be converted into text data of the json type. Json is a lightweight data exchange format with many advantages such as simple data format, easy to read and write, and easy to understand. Replication data of various types such as music type and video type can all be converted into text data of the json type.

[0057] S20. Send the text data to a pre-connected database.

[0058] Specifically, the server is pre-connected to a database for storing data. After obtaining the text data, the server sends the text data to this database. The database can be stored locally on the server or stored in the cloud and connected to the server through a communication connection.

[0059] After the database obtains the text data, it saves it locally and returns an identifier to the server for subsequent retrieval and invocation of the saved text data.

[0060] S30. When detecting the identifier returned by the database for the text data, save the identifier to the clipboard.

[0061] Specifically, in the conventional data copy and paste process, the replicated data selected by the user is saved to the clipboard of the device and waits for a paste instruction to send the replicated data in the clipboard to the location indicated by the paste instruction.

[0062] In this embodiment, the replicated data corresponding to the copy instruction is not stored on the clipboard but sent to the database. At the same time, when detecting the identifier returned by the database for the text data, save the identifier to the clipboard. Therefore, the content stored on the clipboard is not the replicated data itself but the identifier corresponding to the replicated data. The identifier is generally short in length, so the clipboard will not bear too much data content. Even if the size of the replicated object is very large, it will not affect the operation of the device itself.

[0063] In this embodiment, the database includes a generation module for generating an identifier, and the generation module can pre-store an identification algorithm for generating an identifier.

[0064] In a method for generating an identifier, after obtaining the text data, according to a preset identification algorithm, using the text data as the encryption object, generate a query identifier corresponding to the text data, and use the query identifier as the identifier. The identification algorithm can convert the text data into a string of a certain length and has uniqueness, thus facilitating subsequent retrieval. The identification algorithm can include encryption algorithms, UUID algorithms, etc.

[0065] In terms of generating query identifiers, the database can pre-store multiple identifier values. For each piece of text data obtained, the identifier value is associated with the text data, and the corresponding identifier value is used as the query identifier corresponding to the text data. The query identifier can include unique identifiers such as user ID, random number, current time, etc. In addition, there are various encryption algorithms that can convert the text data into a fixed-length string.

[0066] S40. When a paste instruction is detected, send the identifier to the database.

[0067] Specifically, when a paste instruction is detected, instead of directly pasting the content in the clipboard into the paste instruction in the conventional way, the identifier in the clipboard is first sent to the database. Common paste instructions are like "ctrl+v or command+v". The paste instruction and the copy instruction can come from different platforms. For example, the copy instruction is for an online document in browser A, while the paste instruction is for an online document in browser B.

[0068] Furthermore, if every time a paste instruction is detected, the content in the clipboard is sent to the database, then for data that is not copied using the above-mentioned scheme, the content in the clipboard may also be sent and queried in the database. This process will inevitably cause the database to perform unnecessary retrievals and feedback, thus reducing the speed of copy and paste. Therefore, in this embodiment, the identifier returned by the database has a specific format template.

[0069] To generate an identifier with a specific format template, in another identifier generation method, the generation module includes a generation unit and a writing unit. First, according to the identification algorithm, the generation unit uses the text data as the encryption object to generate a query identifier corresponding to the text data. Then the writing unit writes the query identifier into a preset format template to obtain an identifier corresponding to the text data. In this way, the finally obtained identifier has a specific format. The type of the format template can be freely set. Since format query judgment generally proceeds in the order from front to back, a format template provided in this embodiment includes a special prefix, a separator, and a replaceable identifier. The special prefix is used to help the server quickly determine whether it meets the condition of sending the identifier to the database. The separator is used to distinguish the special prefix and the replaceable identifier, and the replaceable identifier is the part that is replaced by the query identifier when generating the identifier.

[0070] For example, if the query identifier is "12#93e9w%￥#", the special prefix is "C", and the separator is "-", then according to the format template, the generated identifier is "C-12#93e9w%￥#".

[0071] Therefore, in the process of sending the identifier to the database, the following steps can be adopted:

[0072] A10. When a paste instruction is detected, determine whether the intermediate data in the clipboard conforms to a preset format template;

[0073] Specifically, any type of data in the clipboard is regarded as intermediate data. When a paste instruction is detected, first determine whether the intermediate data in the clipboard conforms to a preset format target, that is, the format template adopted in the previous database generation of the identifier. In the case where the special prefix is "C" and the connection symbol is "-" in the above example, it is only necessary to determine whether it satisfies "C-" before.

[0074] A20. If so, send the intermediate data as an identifier to the database.

[0075] Specifically, if it is satisfied, it means that the intermediate data is an identifier, so the intermediate data is sent to the database.

[0076] Furthermore, the server can choose to directly send the identifier to the database, and the database will later extract the query identifier in the identifier and perform a search. The server can also choose to send the query identifier in the identifier to the database after determining that the intermediate data is an identifier.

[0077] A30. If not, paste the intermediate data according to the paste object in the paste instruction.

[0078] Specifically, if not, it means that the data in the clipboard is general paste data, so the intermediate data is directly pasted according to the paste object in the paste instruction.

[0079] Based on the format judgment of the intermediate data in the clipboard, the identifiers that need to be sent to the database and the data that do not need to be sent to the database can be distinguished, thereby reducing unnecessary searches in the database and improving the speed of copy and paste.

[0080] In addition, the paste instruction and the copy instruction can come from different devices. The user sends a copy instruction in device A, and device A and device B can share the clipboard so that the user can send a paste instruction in device B to process the intermediate data in the clipboard. Device A and device B sharing the clipboard can be achieved by binding the user account to the clipboard, clipboard sharing based on a local area network, etc.

[0081] S50. When the text data returned by the database for the identifier is detected, convert the text data into the copied data and paste it according to the paste object in the paste instruction.

[0082] Specifically, after the database obtains the identifier sent by the server, it queries the locally stored data to obtain the text data corresponding to the identifier. If the database queries the text data corresponding to the identifier, it returns the text data to the server; if the database cannot query the text data corresponding to the identifier, it returns empty data to the server.

[0083] When detecting the text data returned by the database for the identifier, although the text data has the same source but different displays, the server needs to convert the text data into replicated data in its original form. Finally, according to the paste object in the paste instruction, the replicated data is pasted.

[0084] In the first replication method, the replicated data type is text type, then directly based on the text data, it is determined that the replicated data is "I" with a size of No. 4 and a font of regular script.

[0085] When the type of the original replicated data is non-text type and the data obtained from the database is text data, after obtaining the text data, it needs to be converted into replicated data. The process is as follows:

[0086] C10. According to the data type, convert the text data to obtain the replicated data;

[0087] Specifically, first, according to the data type in the replication instruction, convert the text data. For example, for the original data type being image type, convert the text data into image type data to obtain the replicated data. Taking json as an example, extract the data in json and then convert it into an image to obtain the replicated data.

[0088] C20. According to the paste object in the paste instruction, paste the replicated data.

[0089] Specifically, then according to the paste object in the paste instruction, paste the replicated data to the position indicated by the paste object.

[0090] This embodiment can convert replicated data of various different types such as picture type and music type into text data, and perform copy and paste based on the text data, thereby realizing that complex multi-type copy objects can also be copied. In addition, the replication instruction and the paste instruction can be located on different platforms, even different devices, to implement a cross-platform data replication method.

[0091] Such as Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also provides a cross-platform data replication device 100, which includes:

[0092] A conversion module 110, configured to convert the replicated data corresponding to the replication instruction into text data when detecting the replication instruction;

[0106] In addition, when the logical commands in the above-mentioned memory 22 are implemented in the form of software functional units and sold or used as independent products, they can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium.

For example, various media such as USB flash drives, mobile hard disks, read-only memory (ROM), random access memory (RAM), magnetic disks, or optical discs that can store program codes can also be a transient computer-readable storage medium.

[0109] In addition, the specific processes of loading and executing multiple commands in the above-mentioned computer-readable storage medium and the terminal device have been described in detail in the above methods, and will not be repeated here one by one.
