Description

Technical Field

[0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of computer technology, and in particular to an application package distribution method, an application package downloading system, a device, and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] React Native (RN for short) is a cross-platform mobile application development framework that Facebook open-sourced in April 2015. It is a derivative of Facebook's earlier open-source JS framework React on the native mobile application platform. Currently, it supports two major platforms, iOS and Android. Supporting hot updates of JS code is its core capability, which can achieve iterative updates of business without releasing a version. At present, the application package update platform usually adopts the following method to update the application package: based on the logic of single package update, all business-related static resources are put into a compressed package, and then downloaded from the client and loaded separately.

[0003] However, the above method usually has the following technical problems: single package download requires downloading the entire application package, which wastes computing resources. In addition, the single package download method is single and cannot realize flexible configuration download of a certain application, which is not conducive to the iterative update of the application.

Among them, the application incremental package group in the above application incremental package group set corresponds to the version application package in the above version application package set. Thus, the incremental packages between each version application package and the application full package and the application split package can be calculated. Then, according to the application version information list corresponding to the above-mentioned client, the corresponding application incremental package group is selected from the above-mentioned application incremental package group set as the target application incremental package group. In this way, the incremental package of the corresponding version can be issued according to the current application version information of the client. Finally, the above-mentioned application full package, the above-mentioned application split package and the above-mentioned target application incremental package group are issued to the cache corresponding to the above-mentioned client. In this way, the full package, the split package and the incremental package can all be issued, so that the client can download the application package according to actual needs. Thereby, the waste of computing resources is reduced, and the flexible configuration download of a certain application can be realized, which is conducive to the iterative update of the application.

[0034] Figure 1 It is an information timing interaction diagram between the application package sending method and the application package downloading method of some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0035] exist Figure 1In the process, first, the client 101 can send an application update request 103 to the server 102. After that, the server 102 can use the application full package 104 and the application split package 105 corresponding to the above application update request 103. Next, the server 102 can construct an application incremental package group set 106 corresponding to the above application full package 104 and the above application split package 105 according to the version application package set corresponding to the above application update request 103, wherein the application incremental package groups in the above application incremental package group set 106 correspond to the version application packages in the above version application package set. Then, the server 102 can select the corresponding application incremental package group from the above application incremental package group set 106 as the target application incremental package group 107 according to the application version information list corresponding to the above client 101. Finally, the server 102 can send the above application full package 104, the above application split package 105 and the above target application incremental package group 107 to the cache corresponding to the above client 101.

[0036] Continue to refer Figure 2 , shows a process 200 of some embodiments of the method for delivering an application package according to the present disclosure. The method for delivering an application package includes the following steps:

[0037] Step 201: In response to receiving an application update request sent by a client, construct an application full package and an application split package corresponding to the application update request.

[0038] In some embodiments, the execution subject of the application package delivery method (for example Figure 1 The server 102 shown in the figure can construct the application full package and application split package corresponding to the above application update request in response to receiving the application update request sent by the client. Here, the client can refer to the client that needs to update the application. The application update request can refer to an update request for a certain application.

[0039] In practice, after receiving the application update request sent by the client, the above-mentioned execution entity can read the local application full package and application split package of the latest version of the application corresponding to the above-mentioned application update request. Among them, the application full package can be the code package of the entire application including the public component package. The application split package can refer to the code package of the entire application that does not include the public component package. The public component package can refer to the public dependency package (common package) of all other applications.

[0040] Step 202: construct an application incremental package set corresponding to the above-mentioned application full package and the above-mentioned application split package according to the version application package set corresponding to the above-mentioned application update request.

[0041] In some embodiments, the execution subject may construct an application incremental package group set corresponding to the above-mentioned application full package and the above-mentioned application split package according to the version application package set corresponding to the above-mentioned application update request. The application incremental package group in the above-mentioned application incremental package group set corresponds to the version application package in the above-mentioned version application package set. The above-mentioned version application package set may refer to the application packages of various versions that are updated locally for the application corresponding to the above-mentioned application update request. That is, each version application package in the version application package set corresponds to a different version.

[0042] In practice, the incremental data between each version application package in the above version application package set and the above application full package can be determined as the full package application incremental package. The incremental data between each version application package in the above version application package set and the above application split package can be used as the unpacked application incremental package. The full package application incremental package and the unpacked application incremental package corresponding to each version application package can be merged into an application incremental package group. Thus, an application incremental package group set is obtained.

[0043] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the execution subject may construct an application incremental package set corresponding to the application full package and the application split package through the following steps:

[0044] The first step is to obtain the latest released preset number of version application packages of the application corresponding to the above application update request as a version application package set. Among them, the version application packages in the above version application package set include: version application full package and version application split package. Here, the version application full package may refer to the full package of a certain version of the application. The version application split package may refer to the split package of a certain version of the application. That is, the latest released preset number of version application packages of the application corresponding to the above application update request can be obtained from the local database as a version application package set. Here, there is no restriction on the setting of the preset number. Each version application package corresponds to a release time. Thereby, it is convenient to select the latest released preset number of version application packages according to the release time.

[0045] In the second step, for each version application package in the above version application package set, perform the following processing steps:

[0046] First, determine the full-package application incremental package between the version application full package included in the version application package and the application full package. That is, the incremental data between the version application full package and the application full package can be determined as the full-package application incremental package.

[0047] Second, determine the full-package split application incremental package between the version application full package included in the version application package and the application split package. That is, the incremental data between the version application full package and the application split package can be determined as the full-package split application incremental package.

[0048] Third, determine the split full-package application incremental package between the version application split package included in the version application package and the application full package. That is, the incremental data between the version application split package and the application full package can be determined as the split full-package application incremental package.

[0049] Fourth, determine the version application split package included in the version application package and the split application incremental package between the application split package. That is, the incremental data between the version application split package and the application split package can be determined as the split application incremental package.

[0050] Fifth, the above-mentioned full-inclusive application incremental package, the above-mentioned full-inclusive split application incremental package, the above-mentioned split full-inclusive application incremental package and the above-mentioned split application incremental package are merged into an application incremental package group.

[0051] Therefore, different formats of incremental packages can be set so that the client can download the corresponding incremental package according to actual needs. Thus, flexible configuration download of a certain application can be realized, which is conducive to iterative updates of client applications.

[0052] Step 203: According to the application version information list corresponding to the client, a corresponding application incremental package group is selected from the application incremental package group set as a target application incremental package group.

[0053] In some embodiments, the execution subject may select a corresponding application incremental package group from the application incremental package group set as the target application incremental package group according to the application version information list corresponding to the client. Here, the application version information list may refer to an information list of each version of the application corresponding to the application update request downloaded by the client.

[0054] That is, the latest application version information can be selected from the above application version information list as the target application version information. Afterwards, the application incremental package group whose corresponding version information in the above application incremental package group set is the same as the above target application version information can be determined as the target application incremental package group. Here, the version information corresponding to the application incremental package group can refer to the version information corresponding to the version application package.

[0055] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the execution subject may select a corresponding application incremental package group from the application incremental package group set as the target application incremental package group through the following steps:

[0056] In the first step, in response to determining that the application version information list is not empty, the first application version information in the application version information list is read, and the following selection steps are performed:

[0057] The first selection step is to determine whether the version corresponding to the above application version information is greater than or equal to the latest local version.

[0058] The second selection step is to determine whether the application version information meets the update condition in response to determining that the version corresponding to the application version information is smaller than the local latest version. The update condition may mean that the version represented by the application version information is within the version update range. The version update range may include at least one application version.

[0059] In the third selection step, in response to determining that the application version information meets the update condition, the application incremental package group corresponding to the application version information is selected from the application incremental package group set as the target application incremental package group. That is, the application incremental package group whose corresponding version information is the same as the target application version information can be selected from the application incremental package group set as the target application incremental package group.

[0060] Thus, the latest application version information can be selected to make incremental packages, thereby avoiding making too many incremental packages and meeting the update requirements of different versions of applications.

[0061] Optionally, in response to determining that the above application version information list is empty, an empty target application incremental package group is generated.

[0062] Optionally, in response to determining that the application version information does not meet the update conditions, the application version information is removed from the application version information list to update the application version information list, and the updated application version information list is used as the application version information list to perform the selection step again.

[0063] In some embodiments, the execution entity may, in response to determining that the application version information does not meet the update conditions, remove the application version information from the application version information list to update the application version information list, and use the updated application version information list as the application version information list to execute the selection step again.

[0064] Step 204: Send the above-mentioned full application package, the above-mentioned application split package and the above-mentioned target application incremental package group to the cache corresponding to the above-mentioned client.

[0065] In some embodiments, the execution entity may send the full application package, the split application package, and the target application incremental package group to a cache corresponding to the client.

[0066] The above-mentioned various embodiments of the present disclosure have the following beneficial effects: through the application package distribution method of some embodiments of the present disclosure, the waste of computing resources is reduced, and flexible configuration download of a certain application can be achieved, which is conducive to the iterative update of the application.

[0067] Further references Figure 3, showing some embodiments of the application package downloading system according to the present disclosure. The application package downloading system comprises the following steps:

[0068] Step 301: In response to receiving an application update request sent by a client, the server constructs an application full package and an application split package corresponding to the application update request.

[0069] In some embodiments, in response to receiving an application update request sent by a client, the server may construct an application full package and an application split package corresponding to the application update request. The server is in communication connection with the client.

[0070] Step 302: The server constructs an application incremental package set corresponding to the application full package and the application split package according to the version application package set corresponding to the application update request.

[0071] In some embodiments, the server constructs an application incremental package set corresponding to the application full package and the application split package according to the version application package set corresponding to the application update request.

[0072] In step 303, the server selects a corresponding application incremental package group from the application incremental package group set as a target application incremental package group according to the application version information list corresponding to the client, and sends the application full package, the application split package and the target application incremental package group to the cache corresponding to the client.

[0073] In some embodiments, the server can select a corresponding application incremental package group from the application incremental package group set as the target application incremental package group based on the application version information list corresponding to the client, and send the application full package, the application split package and the target application incremental package group to the cache corresponding to the client.

[0074] Here, the specific implementation of steps 301-303 and the technical effects brought about can be referred to Figure 2 The corresponding steps 201-204 in the embodiments are not described in detail here.

[0075] Step 304: In response to detecting the application download information and determining that the local public component package supports installation of the latest version of the application package, the client determines whether there is a local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database.

[0076] In some embodiments, the client may determine whether there is a local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database in response to detecting the application download information and determining that the local public component package supports the installation of the latest version of the application package. First, in response to detecting the application download information, it may be determined whether the local public component package supports the installation of the latest version of the application package. The application download information may be information about the application package selected by the user operating the client, and may include the name of the application. The local public component package may refer to a local public component package. The latest version of the application package may refer to the latest version of the application package pointed to by the application download information. That is, it is determined whether the above-mentioned local public component package supports the installation of the latest version of the application package. Then, it may be determined whether there is a historically downloaded application package of the application corresponding to the above-mentioned application download information in the local database.

[0077] Therefore, it is possible to determine whether the latest version of the application package can be installed based on the version information of the local public component package, thereby facilitating the determination of downloading the corresponding application package to meet the client's needs.

[0078] Step 305: In response to determining that there is no local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database, the client downloads the application split package from the associated cache.

[0079] In some embodiments, the client can download the application split package from the associated cache in response to determining that there is no local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database. Here, the associated cache can refer to the cache of the execution subject communication connection, which is used to store various application packages of the application to be updated.

[0080] Optionally, in response to determining that there is a local application package corresponding to the above application download information in the local database, the client downloads the split full-package application incremental package and the split application incremental package in the target application incremental package group from the above cache.

[0081] In some embodiments, the client can, in response to determining that there is a local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database, download the split full-package application incremental package and the split application incremental package in the target application incremental package group from the cache. Here, the target application incremental package group includes: full-package application incremental package, full-package split application incremental package, split full-package application incremental package, and split application incremental package.

[0082] Optionally, in response to determining that the local public component package does not support installation of the latest version of the application package and determining that there is no local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database, the client downloads the entire application package from the cache.

[0083] In some embodiments, the client may download the entire application package from the cache in response to determining that the local public component package does not support installation of the latest version of the application package and that there is no local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database.

[0084] Therefore, the corresponding application package can be adaptively downloaded according to the client's own application version information.

[0085] Optionally, in response to determining that the local public component package does not support the installation of the latest version of the application package, and determining that there is a local application package corresponding to the application download information in the local database, the client downloads the full-package application incremental package and the full-package split application incremental package in the target application incremental package group from the cache.

[0086] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned client can download the full-package application incremental package and the full-package split application incremental package in the target application incremental package group from the above-mentioned cache in response to determining that the above-mentioned local public component package does not support the installation of the latest version of the application package, and determining that there is a local application package corresponding to the above-mentioned application download information in the local database.

[0087] from Figure 3 It can be seen that Figure 3 In some corresponding embodiments, the process 300 can adaptively download the corresponding application package according to the client's own application version information.
