[0002] With the development and popularization of smart home technology, the home gateway, as the core component of the home network, has the important ability to handle device access to the network and data forwarding. In addition, the home gateway can also provide users with additional services by extending third-party plugins. Generally, the plugins running on a home gateway can be categorized into pre-installed plugins and third-party plugins.

[0003] In the existing technology, operators update pre-installed plugins by pre-installing the plugin installation package into the firmware version to be upgraded on the gateway. After the remote platform performs a centralized upgrade on the gateway, the plugin in the new firmware is activated by restoring the factory settings. However, each update of the pre-installed plugin involves restoring the gateway to factory settings before it takes effect, which increases the maintenance cost for platform personnel. Furthermore, restoring the factory settings will cause the loss of third-party plugins installed before the gateway upgrade, which cannot guarantee the normal use of users' services.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 This invention provides a method for updating pre-configured plugins, applied to a smart gateway, comprising: Step 11: Obtain the new firmware package sent by the remote update platform; the new firmware package includes: a new version of the pre-installed plugin and a plugin decoupling marker file; the plugin decoupling marker file is used to mark whether the pre-installed plugin is updated according to the plugin decoupling function; In this embodiment of the invention, after the smart gateway updates its firmware according to the new firmware package, it needs to update the pre-installed plugins in the smart gateway.

[0021] Step 12: Load the cached plugins; the cached plugins include older versions of pre-installed plugins; In this embodiment of the invention, since the plugin is deleted due to the smart gateway update, it is necessary to load the plugin from the cache, loading the old version of the pre-installed plugin and the old version of the third-party plugin for subsequent use. In the prior art, after the smart gateway is updated, it is necessary to restore the factory settings, which affects the use of the third-party plugin. However, when the plugin decoupling function is used, the old version of the third-party plugin is not processed, reducing manual operation and improving the user experience.

[0022] Step 13: If the plugin decoupling marker file marks the preset plugin as being updated according to the plugin decoupling function, the old version of the preset plugin is updated according to the new version of the preset plugin using the plugin decoupling function.

[0023] In this embodiment of the invention, the plugin decoupling function only updates the preset plugins as needed, decoupling them from third-party plugins, and the update process does not affect the third-party plugins.

[0024] In this embodiment of the invention, the pre-installed plugins of the smart gateway are updated on demand without affecting the use of third-party plugins. The update process does not require manual intervention, thus decoupling plugin updates and gateway firmware upgrades.

[0025] In this embodiment of the invention, optionally, the plug-in decoupling function includes: Obtain the new version of the pre-installed plugins and delete the plugin decoupling tag file; the new version of the pre-installed plugins includes: the number of new version pre-installed plugins and the configuration information of the new version pre-installed plugins; the configuration information of the new version pre-installed plugins includes: the name and version number of the new version pre-installed plugins; In this embodiment of the invention, deleting the plug-in decoupling marker file is to ensure that the plug-in decoupling process is not entered again when the smart gateway restarts next time.

[0026] Determine whether the version number of the new version of the pre-installed plugin is greater than the version number of the old version of the pre-installed plugin; If the version number of the new version of the pre-installed plugin is greater than the version number of the old version of the pre-installed plugin, then delete the old version of the pre-installed plugin and install the new version of the pre-installed plugin. If the version number of the new version of the pre-installed plugin is less than or equal to the version number of the old version of the pre-installed plugin, then the new version of the pre-installed plugin will not be installed.

[0027] In this embodiment of the invention, before installing the new version of the pre-installed plugin, it is determined whether the pre-installed plugin is already in the currently running plugin list; if it is not in the currently running plugin list, it means that it is a new pre-installed plugin and can be installed normally; if it is already in the currently running plugin list, the version information of the plugin with the same name in the installed plugin list is determined to ensure that it is updated as needed.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 2 In this embodiment of the invention, optionally, obtaining the new version of the preset plugin includes: Get the number of pre-installed plugins in the new version; The configuration information of the new version's pre-installed plugins is obtained multiple times using the attribute acquisition tool, based on the number of pre-installed plugins.

[0029] In this embodiment of the invention, the number of preset plugins is obtained by reading the directory under the file corresponding to the preset plugin; The loop iterates through the number of plugins, retrieving the name of each pre-built plugin JAR file using the plugin's getName method; that is, the loop retrieves the name of the pre-built plugin JAR file as many times as the number of plugins. After obtaining the name object of the pre-built plugin JAR file, the plugin's attribute object is obtained through the corresponding interface method of the plugin; specifically, the plugin's attribute object is obtained through getMainAttributes under getManifest. The plugin name and version number are obtained by calling the corresponding interface method of the plugin based on the plugin's property object; specifically, the plugin's getValue method is called to obtain the fields in the corresponding MANIFEST.MF file, such as the plugin name: Bundle-SymbolicName and the plugin version number: Bundle-Version.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment of the invention, the remote update platform, i.e., the RMS platform, specifically includes: a plugin platform and a TR069 platform; the plugin platform is used to manage third-party plugins; and the TR069 platform is used to issue gateway upgrade or factory reset tasks.

[0031] The smart gateway includes: a PLUGIN_PROCESS module, used to forward JSON messages and parse plugin instructions issued by the plugin management module; a TR069 module, used to receive and execute tasks issued by the TR069 platform; an OSGI framework module, used to provide a runtime environment for plugins and manage plugins, enabling functions such as plugin installation, update, startup, shutdown, and uninstallation; wherein, the OSGI framework module specifically includes: management plugins, service plugins, pre-built plugins, third-party plugins, OSCG-Felix, TVM, and JNI (Java Native Interface, using Java native interfaces to write programs); an OSGI support service module, used to check if the OSGI module has exited abnormally and restart the OSGI module when necessary, and can also forward JSON messages; and an upgrade and factory reset module, used for gateway firmware upgrades and factory resets.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 4 The specific process for updating the pre-installed plugins is as follows: Platform maintenance personnel can perform remote upgrades by operating the gateway through the TR069 platform. After receiving the remote upgrade command issued by the remote update platform, the TR069 module of the smart gateway calls the upgrade and factory reset module to perform firmware upgrade; After the smart gateway is successfully upgraded, the OSGI support service module sends a pre-installation command to the management plugin. The plugin management module loads previously installed plugins from the corresponding path / usr / data / o_ins / felix-cache cache directory; that is, it loads the cached plugins; the cached plugins include older versions of pre-installed plugins and older versions of third-party plugins. Check if the plugins in the corresponding path / usr / data / o_ins / felix-cache cache directory have been loaded successfully; If unsuccessful, continue waiting for the plugin to install; if successful, the plugin manager will continue to check if a plugin decoupling tag file exists. If it does not exist, the plugin decoupling function will not be executed; If it exists, the plugin decoupling function is executed. The plugin management function reads the number of pre-installed plugins and plugin information of the new firmware version, and deletes the decoupling marker file to ensure that the plugin decoupling process is not entered again during the next gateway restart. The plugin management function determines whether the plugin is already in the list of currently running plugins. If it does not exist, obtain the plugin installation package through the plugin management and call the install method to install the plugin; If it exists, the version information of the pre-installed plugin for the new firmware version and the plugin with the same name in the list of installed plugins will be read through the plugin management; By managing plugins, determine whether the plugin version number of the new firmware version is greater than the version number of the plugin with the same name in the installed list; If the plugin version number of the new firmware version is not greater than the version number of the plugin with the same name in the installed list, then the installed plugin with the same name will continue to run. If the plugin version number of the new firmware version is greater than the version number of the plugin with the same name in the installed list, the plugin management calls the uninstall method to uninstall the already installed plugin with the same name, and then calls the install method to reinstall the new pre-installed plugin with the greater version number.

[0033] In this embodiment of the invention, the pre-built plugins of the gateway are updated on demand, and the updates of the pre-built plugins no longer affect the use of third-party plugins; moreover, no manual intervention is required, which reduces the maintenance costs of platform personnel and ensures the user experience.

[0034] In this invention, the pre-installed plugins of the smart gateway are updated on demand without affecting the use of third-party plugins. The update process does not require manual intervention, thus decoupling plugin updates and gateway firmware upgrades.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 5 This invention provides a method for updating pre-configured plugins, applied to a remote update platform, comprising: Step 51: Configure the updated firmware package; the updated firmware package includes: a new version of the pre-installed plugin; Step 52: Create a plugin decoupling tag file in the updated firmware package to obtain a new firmware package; the plugin decoupling tag file is used to mark whether the preset plugins are updated according to the plugin decoupling function; In this embodiment of the invention, the process of creating the plug-in decoupling marker file is described in the following reference: Figure 6First, the script for creating the file is run; then, it checks whether the plugin reinstallation function is enabled, i.e., whether the FORCE_REINSTALL_PLUGIN macro is enabled; if it is not enabled, the plugin decoupling tag function is not executed; if it is enabled, the touch processing command is used to create the ForceReinstallNeed decoupling tag file in the directory / usr / local / osgi / local corresponding to the gateway; then, the execution permissions of the decoupling tag file are set, i.e., the chmod command is used to change the file attributes and grant the ForceReinstallNeed decoupling tag file execution permissions.

[0036] In this embodiment of the invention, the decoupling tag file can be flexibly selected. That is, the plug-in decoupling function can be enabled in gateways that can use or allow the use of decoupling tag files; in gateways that cannot use or do not allow the use of decoupling tag files, the old method can be used to update the plug-in.

[0037] Step 53: Distribute the new firmware package to the smart gateway.

[0038] In this embodiment of the invention, the pre-built plugins of the gateway are updated on demand by setting a decoupling tag file, and the update of the pre-built plugins no longer affects the use of third-party plugins; moreover, no manual intervention is required, which reduces the maintenance cost of platform personnel and ensures the user experience.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, optionally, the first acquisition submodule includes: The second submodule is used to obtain the number of pre-installed plugins in the new version; The second processing submodule is used to obtain the configuration information of the new version of the pre-installed plugins multiple times using the attribute acquisition tool according to the number of pre-installed plugins.

[0042] In this embodiment of the invention, optionally, the plugins in the cache also include: older versions of third-party plugins, and when the plugin decoupling function is used, the older versions of third-party plugins are not processed.
