Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of software development technology, and in particular to a business application development method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, low-code development technology is widely used in software system development. It utilizes visual page configuration tools to build business application workflows, including business application development and deployment. Common implementation methods include: 1. Developing business applications in a test environment: Deploying a test environment independent of the production environment, configuring the business application in the test environment, and performing functional and performance tests through a test database. After passing the tests, the business application configuration data from the test environment is imported into the production environment for deployment. 2. Developing business applications directly in the production environment: Configuring the business application directly in the production environment, and performing functional and performance tests through the business application production database. After passing the tests, the test process data is deleted from the production database and the application is deployed.

[0003] In the process of developing this invention, the inventors discovered the following defects in the prior art:

[0004] 1. Developing business applications in the test environment is inefficient. Furthermore, due to the differences between the test and production environments, even after a business application passes testing in the test environment and is imported into the production environment, minor modifications are still required. These modifications may result in functional anomalies, performance issues, or compatibility problems, affecting the stability of the business application. 2. Developing business applications directly in the production environment requires granting test users access to the production database, which does not comply with production system compliance management requirements. This poses a risk of contaminating real user data and leaking sensitive user data. Additionally, it prevents the conduct of sufficient destructive, anomaly, and extreme testing, making it difficult to discover deep-seated defects. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a business application development method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium to improve the efficiency and reliability of business application development, while ensuring the data security of real production data.

[0007] On the configuration terminal, data element configuration, data modeling configuration, and page configuration are performed on the target business application. The business configuration data is stored in the application configuration database, and in response to the first state modification instruction, the state of the target business application is modified to pending release.

[0008] The target business application is tested on the sample database on the runtime. If the test is passed, the state of the target business application is changed to published in response to the second state modification instruction, and the target business application is connected to the production database to serve users.

[0009] According to another aspect of the present invention, a business application development apparatus is provided, integrated into a low-code configuration tool, the low-code configuration tool including a configuration terminal, a runtime terminal, and a database, the database including a sample database and a production database, the apparatus comprising:

[0010] The business development module is used to configure data elements, data modeling, and page configuration for the target business application on the configuration terminal, store the business configuration data in the application configuration database, and modify the status of the target business application to "pending release" in response to the first status modification instruction.

[0011] The business operation module is used to test the target business application on the sample database at the running end. If the test is passed, it responds to the second state modification instruction to modify the state of the target business application to "released" and connects the target business application to the production database to serve users.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0026] Figure 1a This is a flowchart illustrating a business application development method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations involving business application development. The method can be executed by a business application development device, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software. This device can be configured on a server for implementing a low-code configuration tool. The low-code configuration tool may include a configuration terminal, a runtime terminal, and a database. The database may include a sample database and a production database, such as... Figure 1a As shown, the method includes:

[0027] S110. Configure data elements, data modeling, and page configuration for the target business application on the configuration side, store the business configuration data in the application configuration database, and change the status of the target business application to pending release in response to the first status modification instruction.

[0028] This embodiment can configure the business application based on the requirements analysis document of the target business application, responding to various configuration commands through the configuration end of a low-code configuration tool, and storing the business configuration data in the application configuration database. After the configuration of the target business application is completed, the target business application can be set to a pending release state in response to the first state modification command. The requirements analysis document of the target business application can refer to a guiding document used in the development of a business system to systematically describe "what to do," "why to do it," and "to what extent."

[0029] In one optional implementation, configuring data elements, data modeling, and pages for the target business application on the configuration side may include: configuring business application data elements according to the data element information of the target business application in response to a data element configuration instruction; performing business application data modeling according to the data modeling configuration instruction and the data element configuration result in response to a data modeling configuration instruction; and configuring business application pages according to the data modeling result and the page design information in the page configuration instruction in response to a page configuration instruction.

[0030] In this embodiment, business application configuration can be achieved through various types of configuration instructions, such as data element configuration, data modeling, and page configuration. Data element configuration instructions can be used to configure the most basic data units involved in the target business application. For example, data elements for a feedback service can refer to information such as the feedback provider, feedback time, feedback method, and feedback service number. Data modeling configuration instructions can be used to configure the database tables and fields of the business application. In this embodiment, business application data modeling can be achieved based on the data modeling configuration instructions and the data element configuration results.

[0031] Page configuration directives can be used to configure user-facing application pages for a target business application, such as business processing page configuration, graph and chart analysis page configuration, business rule configuration, menu configuration, and application role permission configuration. Taking the configuration of a feedback business application as an example, it is necessary to configure the feedback registration page, feedback processing page, and feedback statistics page; configure the business rules for handling feedback items, including the business process, handler, and processing time limit; configure menus for feedback registration, feedback processing, and feedback statistics; and configure roles such as feedback registrant and feedback handler, as well as the data permissions of each role for the feedback handler and feedback item table. Specifically, this embodiment allows users to construct page structure and layout by dragging and dropping pre-defined components (such as forms, lists, charts, and buttons); configure adaptive display rules for the page on different devices and screen sizes; set detailed attributes such as component data binding, interactive behavior, and style; define component event responses (such as clicks and value changes) and associate them with pre-defined business logic or backend service calls; configure business logic, approval workflows, and interactive events; configure internal system connections and external API (Application Programming Interface) calls; configure application menus and associated page addresses; and configure application roles and data permissions.

[0032] Based on the above optional implementation methods, the data element information includes attribute configuration information, management configuration information, quality configuration information, association configuration information, and retrieval configuration information. Accordingly, configuring business application data elements according to the target business application's data element information in the data element configuration instruction may include: configuring data element attributes according to attribute configuration information; configuring data element management rules according to management configuration information; configuring data element quality control rules according to quality configuration information; configuring data element association relationships according to association configuration information; and configuring data element retrieval rules according to retrieval configuration information.

[0033] In this embodiment, attribute configuration information can refer to the basic attribute configuration information of data elements, such as Chinese naming, English naming, data type, length, precision, value range, and business meaning. Management configuration information can refer to the configuration information for data element classification and storage, version control, and lifecycle management. Quality configuration information can refer to the configuration information for binding quality control rules such as value range, format, and required fields to data elements. Association configuration information can refer to the configuration information for the association relationships between data elements, between data elements and business standards, and between data elements and data models. Retrieval configuration information can refer to the configuration information for retrieval rules for data elements.

[0034] Based on the above optional implementation methods, the data modeling configuration instruction includes database table design information, field design information, and table relationship design information. Correspondingly, performing business application data modeling based on the data modeling configuration instruction and data element configuration results may include: modeling the database tables of the business application based on the database table design information; selecting field content for the designed fields from the data element configuration results to achieve field modeling based on the field design information; and modeling the association relationships between database tables and between database tables and fields based on the table relationship design information.

[0035] Database table design information refers to the systematic planning and definition of core elements such as the structure, fields, relationships, and constraints of a data table. Field design information refers to the design information for attributes such as field names, content, and types. Table relationship design information refers to the design information for relationships such as associations between data tables and associations between data tables and fields.

[0036] This embodiment can design the database tables and fields for the target business application based on the requirements analysis document. Fields can be selected from the data element configuration results to ensure that the database table and field design meets the business requirements of the target business application. If the target business application needs to query other data tables or fields during business processing, the relationships between data tables or the related fields between data tables can be configured. Taking feedback as an example, the field information for two tables, "Feedback Provider" and "Feedback Item," needs to be designed. The two tables can be linked through the unique identifier field of the feedback provider.

[0037] This embodiment can also create and modify entities, attributes, and relationships through visualization or scripting, and construct conceptual, logical, or physical data models; implement version control, change history, and release status management of data models; support mapping and dependency analysis between data models; associate attributes in the data model with data elements to ensure the consistency and standardization of business data definitions; and check the completeness and standardization of the data model design.

[0038] S120. On the runtime, test the target business application based on the sample database. If the test passes, respond to the second state modification instruction to change the state of the target business application to "released" and connect the target business application to the production database to serve users.

[0039] The sample database can be used to store test data for business applications, while the production database can be used to store real data for business applications. The table structures of the sample and production databases can be kept consistent. In this embodiment, the sample and production databases can be created by exporting the table creation statements for business applications during the data modeling process in the configuration terminal. If the data model configured through data modeling changes, both the sample and production databases can be modified synchronously. Taking the feedback business as an example, to create a database for the feedback application, the table creation statements for the feedback provider and feedback item can be exported through the data model configuration tool. A sample database and a production database for the feedback business can then be created in the database, and two tables for the feedback provider and feedback item can be created in each database respectively.

[0040] An optional implementation involves testing the target business application on the runtime based on a sample database. This can include: responding to a data parsing instruction, searching for the business configuration data of the target business application that matches the business application identifier in the application configuration database according to the business application identifier in the data parsing instruction; parsing the business configuration data; and rendering an operable target business application based on the parsing result; and testing the target business application on the sample database in development mode, where data access control logic is not enabled.

[0041] In one optional implementation, connecting the target business application to the production database to serve users may include: connecting the target business application to the production database to serve users in running mode, and enabling data access control logic in running mode.

[0042] This embodiment allows for functional and performance testing of target business applications in a pre-release state. During testing, business configuration data of the target business application can be obtained from the application configuration database, parsed, and rendered to generate an operable application interface, which testers can then verify based on a sample database.

[0043] When the target business application is running, it accesses the database through a unified data service. This service supports two execution modes: development mode and runtime mode. For applications in the pre-release state, it can automatically switch to development mode. In development mode, the unified data service can connect to the sample database of the business application and disable data access control logic, so that testers can perform thorough and complete testing of the application.

[0044] After the functional and performance tests of the business application in the pending release state are passed, the business application configuration personnel will release the business application. After release, the business application status can be changed to the released state. For the released business application, the unified data service can automatically switch to the running mode. In the running mode, the unified data service connects to the production database of the business application and enables data permission control logic. Users can only access production data within their authorized scope.

[0045] The unified data service in this embodiment can be used for business application database access processing, realizing standardized, secure, and efficient data access. It mainly includes providing a standardized unified data access interface to receive and execute data query and write requests submitted by business applications and return structured results; supporting the configuration and connection to multiple heterogeneous databases and unified management; integrating data access control and access auditing to ensure data security and compliance; providing query optimization, connection pool management, and caching mechanisms to ensure data access performance and stability under high concurrency; and providing development and runtime modes to support switching between sample and production databases.

[0046] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the low-code configuration tool of this embodiment, Figure 1bThis is a deployment diagram of a low-code configuration tool provided in this embodiment. The configuration end includes a data element configuration module, a data modeling configuration module, and a page configuration module. All business application configuration data generated by the configuration end is stored in the application configuration database. The runtime end includes a business application runtime module and a unified data service module, supporting two execution modes: development mode and runtime mode. The development mode connects to the sample database, and the runtime mode connects to the production database. All configuration data required for business application execution is read from the application configuration database. Business application configuration users configure business applications through the configuration end; testing users run business applications in development mode through the runtime end to perform functional and performance tests; and production users run business applications in runtime mode through the runtime end for production business processing.

[0047] The technical solution of this embodiment, by configuring data elements, data modeling, and page configurations for the target business application on the configuration side, storing the business configuration data in the application configuration database, and changing the state of the target business application to "pending release" in response to the first state modification instruction; and by testing the target business application on the runtime side based on the sample database, and changing the state of the target business application to "released" in response to the second state modification instruction if the test passes, and connecting the target business application to the production database to serve users, the technical means of separating the configuration side and runtime side, separating the development mode and runtime mode, and separating the sample database and production database, solve the problems of low development efficiency, lack of security of real user data, and lack of reliability of business applications in the prior art, improve the development efficiency and reliability of business applications, and ensure the data security of real production data at the same time.
