Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to a link report management method for application interfaces, and particularly to a related application field of distributed network nodes for network servers. [Previous Technology]
[0002] A network node is a distributed architecture of network and protocol layers. It can usually be used as a network topology between users and servers. Because of the distributed network nodes, the instantaneous load can be avoided, ensuring the stability of the network between the user and the server. At the same time, the multi-node design makes it more difficult for malicious attacks to directly reach the main server. In addition, multiple nodes can also increase the stability of the website and accommodate more users.
[0003] However, when a data anomaly occurs during data transmission, the administrator must investigate the cause of the fault in the vast and distributed network nodes. In this process, due to the large number of nodes, it is not only troublesome but also very time-consuming to query each node one by one, as the data is quite large. The administrator needs to find the connection information of a single user at a specific time in the data.
[0004] Therefore, how to construct a system that allows managers to directly search for the connection information of each user at a specific time in all data, thereby increasing the convenience of management and avoiding the waste of time, will be the key issues and focus of this case. [Summary of the Invention]

Implementation Method
[0018] A first preferred embodiment of the link report management method with link tracing of the present invention, as shown in FIG1, is applied to a link report management system and is used by an administrator to manage multiple connection information of multiple users, wherein the connection information has a corresponding time segment. The link report management system includes multiple web node servers 1, at least one user terminal operation device 2, an information collection and processing device 3, an administrator terminal operation device 4, and multiple collection devices 5. The web node servers 1 are respectively signal-connected to the collection devices 5. The user terminal operation device 2 includes a user terminal control unit 21 and a user terminal connection unit 22. The user terminal connection unit 22 is signal-connected to the web node servers 1. The information collection and processing device 3 includes an information collection terminal connection unit 31 and an information collection terminal processing unit 32. The processing terminal connection unit 31 is signal-connected to the collection device 5. The administrator terminal operation device 4 includes an administrator terminal connection unit 41 and an administrator terminal control unit 42. The administrator terminal connection unit 41 is signal-connected to the processing terminal connection unit 31.
[0019] Referring also to Figure 2, which is a flowchart of the link report management method of this embodiment, initially as in step S01, the web node server 1 receives the connection information generated when each user connects to the web node server 1 through the user terminal control unit 21, and the collection device (collector) 5 collects the connection information. Then, as in step S02, the information collection end connection unit 31 is connected to the web node server 1, and the information collection end processing unit 32 receives and manages the connection information collected by the collection device (collector) 5. Next, as in step S03, the administrator receives a time segment information input by the administrator through the administrator terminal control unit 42 and transmits it to the information collection and processing device 3. Then, as in step S04, the information collection terminal processing unit 32 determines whether there is corresponding connection information for the time segment. If not, as in step S05, a prompt indicating that there is no corresponding information is displayed. If yes, as in step S06, each connection information corresponding to the time segment is provided to the administrator terminal operation device 4, and all connection information corresponding to the time segment is displayed.
[0020] In this example, the multiple connection information entries each have multiple HTTP status codes corresponding to the connection status of the web page node server 1 (HTTP status codes: 1XX Message Response, 2XX Success Response, 3XX Redirection, 4XX Client Error, 5XX Server Error). Therefore, as shown in Figure 3, step S06 can be further described as step S06', whereby the information collection processing unit 32 provides the HTTP status code corresponding to the time segment to the management terminal operation device 4 so that the manager can confirm the current connection status of each web page node server 1.
[0021] On the other hand, step S02 may be followed by step S021, whereby the information collection processing unit 32 determines whether the Hypertext Transfer Protocol status codes returned by the webpage node server are errors (e.g., HTTP status code: 4XX client error or 5XX server error). If not, proceed to step S03; if yes, store the corresponding Hypertext Transfer Protocol status code of the webpage node server 1 and notify the administrator's terminal operation device 4. In this way, when the webpage node server 1 experiences a connection error, it can directly notify the administrator for troubleshooting.
[0022] A second preferred embodiment of the link reporting management method with link tracing of the present invention, referring together with Figures 1 and 4, in this example, the information collection terminal processing unit 32 includes a plurality of link tracing bar modules 321, an instruction code display bar module 322, a decoding module 323 and a recognition text display bar module 324. The connection information includes at least one master program instruction (order), and the program instruction includes at least one slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth). Moreover, the master program instruction (order) and / or the slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) each include an information encoding (base64).
[0023] Referring also to Figure 5, the main program instruction (order) and the slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) each have a start time information 301, an end time information 302, and a total time range information 303. Referring also to Figure 6, step S06 includes the following steps. Initially, as in step S061, the information collection terminal processing unit 32 determines whether the time segment information has the corresponding main program instruction (order) and slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth). If not, then as in step S062, no data is displayed. If yes, then as in step S063, the link tracing module 321 displays the start time information 301, the end time information 302, and the total time range information 303 of the corresponding main program instruction and slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) for the time segment and provides them to the management terminal operation device 4.
[0024] In addition, in this example, the main program instruction (order) and the slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) each have a time range, as shown in Figure 7. Step S063 includes the following steps. First, as in step S0631, the information collection processing unit 32 sorts the start time information 301 and end time information 302 of each slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) within the time range of the corresponding main program instruction (order) and displays them in the link tracing bar module 320 to provide to the manager's terminal operation device 4. Then, as in step S0632, the information collection processing unit 32 generates a corresponding time bar chart based on the start time information 301 and end time information 302 of each main program instruction (order) and slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) and presents it in the link tracing bar module 320 to provide to the manager's terminal operation device 4.
[0025] When the administrator needs to further query the code content of the main program instruction (order) and the slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth), as shown in step S064 of Figure 6, and referring to Figures 8A and 8B, the link tracing module 321 displays the main program instruction (order) and the slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) corresponding to the time segment and provides them to the administrator's terminal operating device 4. Then, as in step S065, the information collection terminal processing unit 32 determines whether the main program instruction (order) and / or the slave program instruction (repository, pay, auth) have the encoded information (base64). If not, as in step S066, no data is displayed. If yes, as in step S067, the decoding module 323 decodes the information encoded information (base64) into a recognition text, and then the recognition text display module 324 displays the recognition text and provides it to the administrator's terminal operating device 4. In this embodiment, the information is encoded using a base 64 and decoded by the decoding module 323 to obtain the result shown in Figure 8B: {“result”: “Order received: item=Strawberry Daifuku, num=3, price=166, total=948”}.
[0026] A third preferred embodiment of the link reporting management method with link tracing of the present invention is shown in Figures 10 and 11. In this embodiment, the web server 1 includes a plurality of connection ports 10, and a step S101 is included before step S01. The processing end connection unit 31 is signal connected to one of the connection ports, wherein the connected connection port is an HTTP port 80. Since the HTTP port 80 is used for unencrypted web communication, the collector 5 can directly collect the connection information completely through the HTTP port 80.
[0027] The present invention provides a link reporting management method for application programming interfaces (APIs). This method involves setting up a collection unit on a web node server to collect multiple connection information from users. This information is then received and managed by an information collection and processing device. In this way, the administrator only needs to input time segment information through the administrator's terminal operating device to directly display the connection information for the corresponding time segment to the administrator's terminal operating device, increasing management convenience and effectively avoiding wasted time due to queries. Furthermore, this invention also has an automatic process for automatically determining whether connection abnormalities have occurred, which can directly notify the administrator when an abnormality occurs, thereby strengthening automated management and achieving all the above objectives.
[0028] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art may make some modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims. [Simplified Explanation of the Diagram]
