[0030] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0031] Embodiment: A method for automatically deploying a componentized Internet of Things system:

[0032] Through the visual system designer, the interface is as follows Figure 1 , drag and drop the components to configure the completed project, dynamically generate the platform deployment installation package, the structure is as follows Figure 2 , define the one-click deployment script install.sh to automate the deployment of the project platform.

[0033] The one-click deployment script can automatically execute the deployment and configuration of various application services and middleware including Java back-end services, Web front-end services, Docker container environment, Jdk environment, message middleware, nacos registration center, database, Redis cache, Minio file service, initialization sql, configuration files and domain name resolution records.

[0034] The one-click deployment script can automatically add all the YAML configuration files required by the application service to the nacos registration center dynamically, and some common variables in the YAML file, such as domain name and IP information, can be written dynamically.

[0035] The one-click deployment script can connect the dynamically input domain name to the domain name management platform, and add resolution records through the script to ensure that the deployed platform can be accessed through the domain name.

[0036] The one-click deployment script includes three retries in case of failure in the automatic deployment of application services and middleware, and a rollback will be performed after the retries fail to ensure the availability of the service.

[0037] The one-click deployment script will generate and run a separate monitoring script after the service deployment is completed. The monitoring script will regularly monitor the availability of the service port. If the service is detected to be unavailable, a mechanism for restarting the service can be automatically executed.

[0038] After the first deployment is completed, the one-click deployment script will be replaced by the platform's subsequent update script. The update script can compare the differences between all deployment packages between the pre-update version and the current deployment version through the script, extract the differential files, and execute the upgrade and update operations of the corresponding service through the script.

[0039] After the component configuration of the project's subsystem applications and industry platform is performed based on the visual system designer, the system program dynamically generates a deployment installation package for the project based on the configuration. The installation package contains application front-end and back-end services, middleware, data initialization scripts, configuration files, deployment scripts, and other contents. The project platform deployment installation package can be downloaded and output through the management platform.

[0040] The deployment process of the one-click deployment script is as follows:

[0041] S1. Copy the project platform deployment installation package.zip to the physical server where the project is deployed, and decompress it. The directory structure in the deployment installation package is as follows: Figure 1 ;

[0042] S2. Execute the one-click deployment script install.sh. Just enter the server IP address and system platform access domain name according to the prompts.

[0043] S3: Based on the IP address and access domain name entered by the user, the one-click deployment script is automatically replaced in all configuration files containing public variables to ensure the consistency of variable configuration in multiple configuration files;

[0044] S4. Automatically install basic software tools, web front-end services, and middleware services through one-click deployment scripts.

[0045] S4.1. Automatically install basic software tools such as Docker and JDK through one-click deployment scripts;

[0046] S4.2. Automatically install web services, RabbitMQ message middleware, Redis cache, Minio storage, Mysql database and other services through one-click deployment script

[0047] S5, automatically execute initialization configuration and Java backend application services through one-click deployment script;

[0048] S5.1. Automatically execute database initialization configuration through scripts, including database creation, database access user creation, database initialization SQL execution, etc.;

[0049] S5.2. Automatically import microservice configuration to Nacos through scripts. This configuration defines the registration of backend services, database connection, middleware service connection, log format, etc.

[0050] S5.3. Automatically create scripts to start and stop services through scripts;

[0051] S5.4. Automatically start all backend application service jar packages in the Java backend service package through scripts;

[0052] S6, based on the system platform access domain name information entered by the S2 user, automatically adds the domain name resolution record to the Alibaba Cloud domain name management platform through a one-click deployment script;

[0053] S7: To ensure the accuracy of one-click deployment script execution, if an exception occurs in the application service or middleware during the execution of the automated one-click deployment script, a three-time retry mechanism will be triggered. After the retry fails, a rollback mechanism will be executed.

[0054] S8. After the automatic one-click deployment script is executed, a service monitoring script is generated and run. In the monitoring script, a timed monitoring mechanism for application services and middleware services needs to be set. When a service abnormality is detected and unavailable, the script automatically executes the service restart mechanism without manual intervention, thereby improving the stability and availability of the system;

[0055] S9: When all services are deployed normally and the monitoring service is running normally, the deployment script content is automatically replaced with the update script for the subsequent online update and upgrade operations of the platform. The update is strictly in accordance with the differentiated update method, that is, the files in the pre-update version and the current deployed version are verified, and only the changed services and files are updated to ensure the normal use of the system by users.

[0056] The main link of the update script is:

[0057] 1) Back up the original data

[0058] 2) Read relevant parameters and detect the update package content

[0059] 3) Replace the data in the update package

[0060] 4) Restart related services

[0061] In summary, after the deployment of the IoT platform is completed through the one-click deployment script, the user can log in to the platform to use it. Compared with manual deployment, automated deployment is more efficient and accurate, and simplifies the complexity of deployment operations and reduces the technical requirements for deployment personnel. After the platform is deployed, when the platform involves subsequent functional expansion and update requirements, it is only necessary to perform online upgrade operations on the platform interface, and update the platform online through the program-driven update script. In addition, the health status of the service and the availability monitoring mechanism are attached to the script, and automatic restart operations can be performed in the event of an abnormality to ensure the stability and availability of the system.
