Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to an e-book implementation method and system based on flat file parsing and storage. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, when parsing files with complex structures, most of the time the entire file is parsed and stored using a file object storage area. For systems that do not support file object storage, it is very difficult to convert such files into e-books. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The main objective of this application is to propose an e-book implementation method and system based on flat file parsing and storage, aiming to achieve accurate conversion of e-books in systems that do not support file object storage.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, one aspect of this application proposes an e-book implementation method based on flattened file parsing and storage, the method comprising:

[0005] Construct a five-layer architecture including a web browser, a web server, a reverse proxy server, a file parsing server, and a flat file storage service server;

[0006] Obtain the original e-book file uploaded by the first user, and upload the original e-book file to the flat file storage server;

[0007] The file parsing server detects unparsed files and parses the unparsed original ebook files into files without a fixed hierarchical structure, thus obtaining the first file data and the file path index table.

[0008] The web browser obtains the second user's e-book reading request and sends it to the web server through the reverse proxy server. The web server then generates a resource acquisition path based on the file path index table.

[0009] According to the resource acquisition path, the first file data is obtained from the flat file storage server and displayed in the web browser to realize e-book reading.

[0010] In some embodiments, the construction includes a five-layer architecture comprising a web browser, a web server, a reverse proxy server, a file parsing server, and a flat file storage server, comprising the following steps:

[0011] Build a web browser to provide an entry point for e-book reading;

[0012] A reverse proxy server is built on top of the web browser to perform load balancing of server requests;

[0013] The web server is built on top of the reverse proxy server to assemble the file structure and order;

[0014] A flat file storage device is built on top of the web server for unstructured storage of the original ebook files and the parsed resource files;

[0015] A file parsing server is built on top of the flat file storage server to parse the original ebook file into a binary stream file.

[0024] To parse each page of the original ebook file into an image, a binary file stream is obtained; wherein, the binary file stream is an image binary stream.

[0025] In some embodiments, when the original ebook file is an epub format file, converting the original ebook file into several binary file streams includes the following steps:

[0026] Retrieve all small files within the epub file;

[0027] The small file is parsed to obtain a binary file stream; wherein the binary file stream includes at least one of the following: image binary stream, style file binary stream, content file binary stream, and OPF file binary stream.

[0028] In some embodiments, the step of sending the e-book reading request of the second user obtained by the web browser to the web server through the reverse proxy server, and the web server generating a resource acquisition path according to the file path index table, includes the following steps:

[0029] The web browser is used to obtain the e-book reading request of the second user.

[0030] The reverse proxy server performs load balancing on the e-book reading requests and sends them to the network server.

[0031] For files parsed from epub files, the network server retrieves the file stream ID from the file path index table based on the requested file path carried in the ebook reading request; for files parsed from pdf files, the file stream ID is directly retrieved from the file path index table.

[0032] The network server generates a resource acquisition path for the flat file storage service server based on the file stream ID;

[0033] Return the resource access path to the web browser.

[0034] In some embodiments, the method further includes the following steps:

[0035] In the flat file storage server, a target folder is created for each of the first users; wherein, no other folders exist within the target folder;

[0036] Based on the resource access request of the first user, a resource access path is generated according to the file path index table;

[0037] The first user accesses the contents of the target folder through the resource access path and updates the contents of the target folder.

[0038] To achieve the above objective, another aspect of this application proposes an e-book implementation system based on flattened file parsing and storage, the system comprising:

[0044] In some embodiments, the system may further include the following modules:

[0045] The sixth module is used to enable the first user to update the ebook, specifically for:

[0046] In the flat file storage server, a target folder is created for each of the first users; wherein, no other folders exist within the target folder;

[0047] Based on the resource access request of the first user, a resource access path is generated according to the file path index table;

[0048] The first user accesses the contents of the target folder through the resource access path and updates the contents of the target folder.

[0070] Figure 1 This is an optional flowchart of an e-book implementation method based on flat file parsing and storage provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 The method may include, but is not limited to, steps S100 to S500.

[0072] Step S200: Obtain the original e-book file uploaded by the first user and upload the original e-book file to the flat file storage server.

[0073] Step S300: Unparsed files are detected by the file parsing server, and the unparsed original e-book file is parsed into a file without a fixed hierarchical structure to obtain the first file data and the file path index table.

[0074] In step S400, the e-book reading request of the second user obtained by the web browser is sent to the web server through the reverse proxy server, and the web server generates a resource acquisition path according to the file path index table.

[0075] Step S500: According to the resource acquisition path, obtain the first file data from the flat file storage server and display it in the web browser to realize e-book reading.

[0076] Steps S100 to S500 as shown in the embodiments of this application employ flat file storage and file parsing. After parsing the hierarchical structure in the file, the file path index rules are stored separately. The parsed file can be stored in the file system without following the structure. The corresponding file is then retrieved from the file system according to the stored file path index rules. This effectively reduces the forced coupling between e-books and object storage, allowing e-books to be conveniently stored in non-file object storage systems, and enabling accurate conversion of e-books in systems that do not support file object storage.

[0077] In some embodiments, step S100 may include, but is not limited to, steps S110 to S150:

[0078] Step S110: Build a web browser to provide an entry point for e-book reading;

[0079] Step S120: Build a reverse proxy server on top of the web browser to perform load balancing of server requests.

[0080] Step S130: Build a web server on top of the reverse proxy server to assemble the file structure and order;

[0082] Step S150: A file parsing server is built on top of the flat file storage server to parse the original e-book file into a binary stream file.

[0083] In some embodiments, step S300 includes, but is not limited to, the following steps S310 to S360:

[0084] Step S310: Obtain the first file path of each file in the original e-book file;

[0085] Step S320: Configure the source file ID for the original e-book file;

[0086] Step S330: Convert the original ebook file into several binary file streams;

[0087] Step S340: Configure a file stream ID for each binary file stream;

[0088] Step S350: Use the file stream ID and the binary file stream as the first file data;

[0089] Step S360: Generate a file path index table based on the first file path, source file ID, and file stream ID.

[0090] In some embodiments, when the original ebook file is a PDF file, step S330 includes, but is not limited to, the following step S331:

[0091] Step S331 involves parsing each page of the original ebook file into an image to obtain a binary file stream; wherein the binary file stream is an image binary stream.

[0092] In some embodiments, when the original ebook file is an epub format file, step S330 includes, but is not limited to, the following steps S332 to S333:

[0096] Step S410: Obtain the second user's e-book reading request through the web browser;

[0097] Step S420: The e-book reading request is load-balanced through the reverse proxy server and sent to the network server;

[0098] Step S430: For files parsed from epub files, the network server retrieves the file stream ID from the file path index table based on the requested file path carried in the ebook reading request; for files parsed from pdf files, the file stream ID is directly retrieved from the file path index table.

[0099] Step S440: The network server generates a resource acquisition path for the flat file storage service server based on the file stream ID;

[0100] Step S450: Return the resource access path to the web browser.

[0101] In some embodiments, the method further includes the step S600 of implementing the first user updating the e-book. Specifically, step S600 may include, but is not limited to, the following steps S610 to S630:

[0102] Step S610: In the flat file storage server, a target folder is created for each of the first users; wherein, no other folders exist within the target folder;

[0103] Step S620: Based on the resource access request of the first user, generate a resource access path according to the file path index table;

[0104] In step S630, the first user accesses the contents of the target folder through the resource access path and updates the contents of the target folder.

[0105] The following section provides a detailed description and explanation of the solutions in this application embodiment, using specific e-book implementation scenarios as examples:

[0106] This application provides an e-book implementation method based on flat file parsing and storage, which can be applied to provide e-book storage and reading functions in non-file object storage systems.

[0107] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, this application embodiment constructs a 5-layer server architecture consisting of a web browser, a web server, a reverse proxy server (nginx), a file parsing server (fileAnalyze-server), and a flat file storage server.

[0108] The reverse proxy server nginx sits above the web browser and is used for load balancing of requests.

[0109] The web server is located above the reverse proxy server nginx, and can use the Tomcat server to provide the function of assembling file structure and order.

[0110] The flat file storage server (file-server) is located above the web server (web-server) and is used to store source files and parsed files. It creates a specific folder for each user, and users can only access the contents of this specific folder when accessing resources. There are no other folders in this folder. User files are converted into binary streams for storage, and a file ID is generated as the file name of the file.

[0111] The file analyzer, fileAnalyze-server, runs independently on top of the flat file storage server, file-server, and is used to parse source files. When the file being parsed is a PDF, it generates an image for each page of the PDF file; when the file being parsed is an EPUB file, it parses the hierarchical files within the EPUB file, locates all files, and finally stores the files uniformly and unstructured on the flat file storage server, file-server.

[0112] Based on this, such as Figure 3 As shown, the e-book implementation method of this application embodiment may include the following steps:

[0113] (1) The first user (uploader) uploads the original ebook (in PDF or Epub format) to the flat file storage file server in the web-server.

[0114] (2) The first user can create a corresponding e-book product in the business system, which is used to provide a reading entry point.

[0115] (3) The file parsing server (fileAnalyze-server) detects an unparsed file and begins parsing it:

[0116] ① For PDF files, the file parsing server fileAnalyze-server parses each page into an image, generating a small file of the image binary stream. The image binary stream is then uploaded to the flat file storage server file-server. The storage structure of the file stream after PDF parsing is shown in Table 1:

[0117] Table 1

[0118] small file ID File Stream fileId1 Image binary stream fileId2 Image binary stream fileId3 Image binary stream fileId4 Image binary stream

[0119] ②For epub files, such as Figure 4 As shown, the source file contains small files such as images, style files, and content files. The file parsing server fileAnalyze-server obtains all small files within the epub file and parses them into corresponding binary streams. The parsed files are then uploaded to the flat file storage server file-server. The storage structure of the epub file stream is shown in Table 2.

[0120] Table 2

[0121] small file ID File Stream fileId1 Image binary stream fileId2 Style file binary stream fileId3 Content file binary stream fileId4 OPF file binary stream

[0122] (4) After parsing, the file paths of the small files in Tables 1 and 2 above are stored in the database to form a rule table (i.e., a file path index table). The storage structure of the rule table is shown in Table 3.

[0123] Table 3

[0124]

[0125]

[0126] (5) The second user (reader) reads the ebook through a web browser. During reading, the user first obtains the file path, then converts it into a resource retrieval path for the flat file storage service server using the rule table stored on the web server. This resource retrieval path is then returned to the web browser. For example, the format of the resource retrieval path can be: https: / / domain / xxx / yyy / fileId1. The first user can obtain the resource access path for their specific folder and update the contents of the folder according to the resource access path. This update can be modification, addition, deletion, etc. The method of obtaining the resource access path is similar to the method described above and will not be repeated here.

[0127] (6) The web browser obtains the resource access path, initiates resource retrieval to the flat file system via HTTP, and displays the obtained e-book file content on the browser page.

[0128] In some embodiments, the web server can retrieve the relevant e-book resources from the flat file storage server based on the obtained resource retrieval path, and then return the retrieved resources to the web browser for display.

[0129] Based on this, the embodiments of this application include at least the following beneficial effects:

[0130] By breaking the forced coupling between ebooks and object storage systems, a flat file storage and file parsing approach is adopted. After parsing the structure copied in the file, the file rules are stored separately. The parsed file can be stored in the file system without following the structure. The business then retrieves the corresponding file from the file system according to the stored file rules, which effectively reduces the forced coupling between ebooks and object storage, allowing ebooks to be stored in non-file object storage systems.

[0131] Please see Figure 5 This application also provides an e-book implementation system based on flat file parsing and storage, which can implement the above-mentioned e-book implementation method based on flat file parsing and storage. The system includes:

[0132] The first module 101 is used to build a five-layer architecture including a web browser, a web server, a reverse proxy server, a file parsing server, and a flat file storage service server;

[0133] The second module 102 is used to obtain the original e-book file uploaded by the first user and upload the original e-book file to the flat file storage server;

[0134] The third module 103 is used to detect unparsed files through the file parsing server, parse the unparsed original e-book file into a file without a fixed hierarchical structure, and obtain the first file data and the file path index table.

[0135] The fourth module 104 is used to send the e-book reading request of the second user obtained by the web browser to the web server through the reverse proxy server, and the web server generates a resource acquisition path according to the file path index table.

[0136] The fifth module 105 is used to obtain the first file data from the flat file storage server according to the resource acquisition path, and display it in the web browser to realize e-book reading.

[0137] In some embodiments, the system may further include the following modules:

[0138] The sixth module is used to enable the first user to update the ebook, specifically for:

[0139] In the flat file storage server, a target folder is created for each of the first users; wherein, no other folders exist within the target folder;

[0140] Based on the resource access request of the first user, a resource access path is generated according to the file path index table;
