[0040] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in the following with reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments.

[0041] The components of the application embodiments generally described and illustrated in the herein drawings can be arranged and designed in a variety of different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the application provided in the herein drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application, but merely represent selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained from the general principles of the application, without departing from the spirit and scope of the application, are intended to be within the scope of the application.

[0042] Hereinafter, the terms "include", "have", and their conjugates, used in the various embodiments of the application, merely indicate that the listed features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components, or combinations thereof are present, and do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components, or combinations thereof.

[0043] In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", and the like are merely used to distinguish descriptions, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0044] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the various embodiments of the application belong. The terms (such as terms defined in a generally used dictionary) will be interpreted as having the same meaning as the context in the relevant technical field and will not be interpreted as having an idealized or overly formal meaning, unless clearly defined in the various embodiments of the application.

[0045] The application embodiments provide an application management method, which is implemented by relying on an application platform. It is worth noting that the application management method provided by the application embodiments supports a third-party application developer to create an application program according to a declaration file writing specification and a code writing specification specified by an application platform, and to implement or increase the business logic of the application program through an application capability supported by a capability layer in the application platform.

[0046] Each application program (i.e., application) can correspond to an abstract application platform (or business system) to correspondingly implement the management of the application program. As an optional implementation, the application platform is managed in layers in advance, and the application platform includes a core layer and a capability layer. The core layer contains application declaration, life cycle, and other logic for describing the definition and behavior of the application itself. The capability layer contains the way of interaction between the application program and the main system and the application capability thereof, such as menu, permission inspection, and right inspection.

[0047] Further, different types of application life cycles are implemented in the core layer to support various types of applications generated in the business iteration process; the abstraction of the existing underlying functions by the capability layer supports the direct use of the existing underlying application capabilities by the application program, and provides extension capabilities for the future added underlying application capabilities.

[0048] Thus, the functional modules in the large system can be abstracted into pluggable application programs in the form of layering (core layer and capability layer), thereby expanding various functional capabilities in the application platform while maintaining a single entry for the application platform.

[0049] It should be noted that the core layer provides the pluggable characteristics of the application program, the capability layer provides the common application capabilities in the common business scenarios, and the application program realizes the diversified business scenarios by combining the application capabilities provided by the capability layer, thereby improving the efficiency of the functional expansion of the application program and the maintainability of the constructed platform or system.

[0050] The core layer handles the loading, installation, and uninstallation processes of the application program, specifically, executes the public logic at the system level, and calls the loading, installation, and uninstallation methods provided by the application program, thereby realizing the loading, installation, and uninstallation of the application program.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 , which will be described in detail below.

[0052] S10, read the pre-stored declaration file, and load the corresponding application program according to the declaration file.

[0053] Exemplarily, when managing each application program, the application program is first loaded through the pre-configured declaration file. Specifically, the pre-stored declaration file in the core layer of the application platform is read, or the declaration file is loaded from outside the application platform; that is, the declaration file is not entirely stored in the core layer of the application platform, and the specific declaration file acquisition method can be set according to actual needs. Then, the application loading method corresponding to each application program in the declaration file is called to realize the loading of the application program.

[0054] The declaration file includes the application implementation method of the corresponding application and the configuration declaration of all application capabilities supported by the capability layer. Further, the declaration file can include basic information description of the application such as the application name, the application capability supported by the application platform used by the application, and the application capability extended by the application in the application platform. The declaration file is self-defined and written by the application developer according to the specified format during the application development stage. In addition, each application has its own application identification number (i.e., application ID), which is defined by the developer of the application and used to indicate the uniqueness of the application.

[0055] Further, the loading of the application includes the loading of the application implementation method of the application and all application capabilities used by the application. The application capability implementation is provided by the application platform for the application, and the application implementation is the application function defined by the application developer.

[0056] It is worth noting that the loading process of the application can be the loading of a single application or the loading of all applications to be managed, and the specific implementation is not limited. The loading is to call the declaration file corresponding to the application to be loaded, and to register the application implementation method and all application capabilities in the corresponding declaration file. For example, in order to improve the management efficiency of the application, all applications are loaded to read all declaration files, and the loading of all applications is realized.

[0057] S20, when receiving the installation instruction of the application carrying the application identification number, obtaining the declaration file having a mapping relationship with the application identification number, and realizing the installation of the application corresponding to the application identification number according to the application implementation method defined in the declaration file.

[0058] After the loading of the application is completed, if the installation of the application is required, the declaration file corresponding to the application can be obtained through the application identification number in the installation instruction of the application after receiving the installation instruction of the application, and then the installation of the corresponding application is performed by calling the application implementation method and the installation method of all application capabilities supported by the capability layer configured in the declaration file, and further, the installed application has all the application capabilities supported by the capability layer. In addition, the installed application can extend the application capability not supported by the application platform in the application platform according to the actual business requirement, that is, the installed application has the application capability declared to be used in the declaration file, and also has the extended application capability in the application platform. It can be understood that when the installed application extends the application capability in the application platform, the configuration declaration of the extended application capability is added in the declaration file.

[0059] As an optional implementation, the installation and uninstallation process of the application program is managed by an application declaration cycle module in the core layer; each application implementation has independent installation / uninstallation logic for performing initialization / destroy work of the application itself; each application capability also has independent installation / uninstallation logic for performing initialization / destroy work related to the capability, which is executed by the application declaration cycle module in the life cycle process of the application program.

[0060] Further, the capability layer is used to abstractly support all application capabilities, so that the application program is combined with each application capability or extended with the application capability, thereby making the developed application program applicable to various business scenarios and business requirements.

[0061] In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, when a single or several specified application programs are loaded, S10 specifically includes the following steps: Figure 2

[0062] S11, when the loading instruction of the application program carrying the application identification number is received, the application identification number is compared with the pre-defined identification number to determine the application implementation method of the application program corresponding to the application identification number and the type of the application capability declared in the corresponding declaration file.

[0063] It should be noted that the application platform provides two types of application implementation methods for applications, namely built-in applications and general applications. The built-in application refers to an application that is gradually evolved from a function in the application platform or business system in the iteration process. The code of this application is still in the application platform or business system and is released simultaneously with the application platform or business system. The general application refers to an application accessed by the application platform or business system from the outside. The code management and application deployment are independent of the application platform or business system.

[0064] In this embodiment, the application platform pre-defines at least one set of application identification numbers, which correspond to the identification numbers of built-in applications. The number of pre-defined application identification numbers and the form of specific identification numbers can be set according to actual needs, which are not limited here.

[0065] Further, when loading the application, the identification number of the loading instruction of the application program is compared with the pre-defined application identification number to determine the type of the application to be loaded, that is, to determine whether the application to be loaded belongs to a built-in application or a general application.

[0066] Further, if the application identification number is consistent with the pre-defined identification number, it is determined that the application program corresponding to the application identification number adopts the application implementation method of the built-in application; if the application identification number is inconsistent with the pre-defined identification number, it is determined that the application program corresponding to the application identification number adopts the application implementation method of the general application. ​

[0067] S12, a first mapping relationship between the application identification number and the application implementation method is constructed, and a second mapping relationship between the application identification number and the application capability is constructed, thereby realizing the registration of the corresponding declaration file and the loading of the corresponding application program.

[0068] After the type of the application to be loaded and the application implementation method thereof are determined, the declaration file corresponding to the application identification number is acquired, and the application implementation method corresponding to the type of the application is configured in the declaration file. Specifically, a mapping relationship between the application identification number and the application implementation method is constructed, which is denoted as the first mapping relationship, and then the first mapping relationship is registered in the corresponding declaration file.

[0069] The application capability and the application capability type configured and declared in the declaration file corresponding to the application identification number are acquired, so as to realize the implementation of all the application capabilities. Specifically, the loading process of all the application capabilities is that a mapping relationship between the application identification number and all the application capabilities is constructed, which is denoted as the second mapping relationship, and then the second mapping relationship is registered in the corresponding declaration file.

[0070] It should be noted that after the registration of the first mapping relationship and the second mapping relationship is completed, the registration of the corresponding declaration file and the loading of the application program are realized.

[0071] In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the above-mentioned "installing the application program corresponding to the application identification number according to the application implementation method specified in the declaration file" in S20 specifically includes the following steps: Figure 3

[0072] S21, according to the application identification number, the application installation method specified in the application implementation method corresponding to the first mapping relationship and the capability installation method of the application capability corresponding to the second mapping relationship are acquired from the declaration file.

[0073] S22, the application installation method and the capability installation method are called, thereby realizing the installation of the corresponding application program.

[0074] In the embodiment, if the corresponding application program needs to be installed, the application program can be installed according to the application implementation method and all the application capabilities registered in the declaration file corresponding to the application program after the loading. The installation of the application program can be the installation of a specified application program or the synchronous installation of all the application programs, and the specific setting can be made according to the actual demand, which is not limited herein.

[0075] Further, the installation instruction of the corresponding application program is received, and the application identification number of the application program to be installed is carried in the installation instruction of the application program, and the number of the application identification number carried in the installation instruction of the application program is not limited herein.​

[0076] Specifically, according to the first mapping relationship, the application implementation method corresponding to the application identification number in the installation instruction of the application program is acquired, and the application installation method defined in the application implementation method is called to implement the installation of the application implementation of the application program.

[0077] Then, according to the second mapping relationship, the application capability corresponding to the application identification number in the installation instruction of the application program is acquired, and the capability installation method corresponding to the application capability is called to implement the installation of the application capability of the application program.

[0078] It can be understood that after the installation of the application implementation and the application capability is completed, it is determined that the installation of the corresponding application program is completed.

[0079] As an optional implementation, as shown in Figure 4 The embodiment of the application further includes the following steps:

[0080] S30, after the installation of the application program is completed, if the uninstallation instruction of the application program carrying the application identification number is received, the uninstallation of the application program corresponding to the application identification number is implemented according to the application uninstallation method defined in the declaration file.

[0081] In the embodiment, if the installation of the corresponding application program is completed, the application program can be subsequently uninstalled. The uninstallation includes the uninstallation of the application implementation and all application capabilities, and the uninstallation of the application program is performed according to the application implementation method and all application capabilities registered in the declaration file corresponding to the application program.

[0082] In addition, the uninstallation can be the uninstallation of a specified application program or the synchronous uninstallation of all application programs, and the corresponding setting can be performed according to actual needs, which is not limited herein.

[0083] Specifically, the uninstallation instruction of the application program is received, and the uninstallation instruction of the application program carries the application identification number of the application program to be uninstalled. The number of the application identification number carried by the installation instruction of the application program is not limited herein. Therefore, the application uninstallation method of the application implementation and all application capabilities configured in the declaration file corresponding to the application identification number is acquired to perform the uninstallation of the application program.

[0084] As shown in Figure 5 The above S30 specifically includes the following steps:

[0085] S31, according to the application identification number and the declaration file, the application uninstallation method defined in the application implementation method corresponding to the first mapping relationship is acquired, and the capability uninstallation method of the application capability corresponding to the second mapping relationship is acquired.

[0086] S32, respectively call the application uninstall method and the capability uninstall method, and then realize uninstall of the corresponding application program.

[0087] In the embodiment, if it is needed to uninstall the corresponding application program, the application program can be uninstalled according to the application implementation method and all application capabilities registered in the declaration file corresponding to the application program after loading.

[0088] Specifically, according to the first mapping relationship, the application implementation method corresponding to the application identification number in the installation instruction of the application program is obtained, the application uninstall method defined in the application implementation method is called, and the uninstall of the application implementation of the application program is realized.

[0089] Then, according to the second mapping relationship, the application capability corresponding to the application identification number in the installation instruction of the application program is obtained, and the capability uninstall method corresponding to the application capability is called, so as to realize the uninstall of the application capability of the application program.

[0090] It can be understood that after the uninstall of the application implementation and all application capabilities is completed, it is determined that the uninstall of the corresponding application program is completed.

[0091] As an optional implementation, if the iteration instruction of the target application program is received, the application capability required to be iterated and the declaration file containing the configuration declaration of the application capability required to be iterated are obtained. Then, according to the declaration file and the application capability required to be iterated, the loading and installation update of the target application program are realized.

[0092] In the embodiment, if it is determined that the target application program is iterated, the iteration instruction corresponding to the target application program is received, and the iteration instruction includes the application capability required to be iterated by the target application program. The iteration is to update the version of the corresponding application program, that is, to load and install the application program again, so as to realize the installation update of the corresponding application program.

[0093] Further, the iteration instruction is parsed to obtain the identification number of the application program required to be iterated carried in the iteration instruction, and the application program required to be iterated is taken as the target application program. When the iteration instruction is parsed, the parsing of the iteration instruction can be realized by the pre-set instruction parsing algorithm, and the instruction parsing algorithm includes but is not limited to the syntax analysis algorithm and the like.

[0094] Further, the application capability required to be iterated and the declaration file containing the configuration declaration of the application capability required to be iterated are obtained through the iteration instruction. Then, according to the declaration file and the application capability required to be iterated, the loading and installation update of the target application program are realized. That is, the installation of the application capability required to be iterated of the target application program is realized, so as to further update and expand the application capability of the target application program, and a new version of the target application program is generated.

[0095] Optionally, in the embodiment, the installation, update and uninstallation of the application program can also be recorded to form and store the record information, and then the record information is used to determine whether the corresponding application program has been installed in the application platform or the business system.

[0096] For example, if it is determined that the installation of the application program corresponding to the application identification number has been implemented, the corresponding application installation record information is generated; if it is determined that the uninstallation of the application program corresponding to the application identification number has been implemented, the application installation record information is deleted.

[0097] Furthermore, the application installation record information can be used to view the information corresponding to the installation and iterative update of the application program, such as the version, the life cycle and the like. When the corresponding application program is uninstalled, the application installation record information is deleted to avoid the interference of the record information on the management of the application program, and the efficiency of the management of the application program is improved.

[0098] The embodiment of the application manages the life cycle and the capability implementation of the application program through the core layer and the capability layer, and then different types of application life cycles are implemented in the core layer to support the application programs of different types generated in the business iteration process. The capability layer abstracts the existing underlying application capabilities to support the direct use of the existing underlying application capabilities by the application program, and provides the extension capability for the future added underlying application capabilities, thereby reducing the coupling degree between the different application capabilities of the application program and between the main system and the business logic, dividing the boundary between the business logic and the application implementation, improving the efficiency of the management process such as the loading and installation of the application program, reducing the maintenance cost of the application program and the application capability, and improving the user experience effect. In addition, the capability layer can support the implementation of all the application capabilities of the application program, and then the combination and superposition of the various application capabilities can be implemented to provide more flexible function combination and sales strategy for commercialization, and improve the economic applicability.

[0099] For example, the application program management device provided by the embodiment of the application comprises: Figure 6 The loading module 61 is configured to read the pre-stored declaration file, and load the application program according to the declaration file. The declaration file comprises the configuration declaration of the application implementation method of the corresponding application program and all the supported application capabilities.

[0100]

[0101] ​The installation module 62 is configured to, when receiving an installation instruction of an application program carrying an application identification number, acquire a declaration file having a mapping relationship with the application identification number, and implement installation of the application program corresponding to the application identification number according to an application implementation method defined in the declaration file; wherein the installed application program has all application capabilities supported by the capability layer.

[0102] Further optionally, as shown in Figure 7 The application program management apparatus further includes:
