Applet Plug-In Configuration for No-Code Deployment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The configuration process for mini program plug-ins is cumbersome and inefficient, requiring mini program managers to develop program files using preset interfaces, which is costly and limits the solution to those with development capabilities, reducing versatility and applicability.
Innovation Solution
A configuration method and apparatus that allows mini program managers to perform plug-in setting operations through a visual plug-in configuration page, generating a plug-in page access address based on operation information, enabling direct deployment without developing program files, and utilizing preset components through subscription events.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If mini program managers develop program files using preset interfaces, then plug-in functionality can be achieved, but the process becomes cumbersome and inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses visual copying of preset components instead of programming. The configuration page displays visual representations of preset components (buttons, forms, etc.) that can be directly copied and configured by dragging and dropping, eliminating the need to write program files while maintaining functional equivalence
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a visual configuration page as an intermediary between the manager and the plug-in system. This intermediary translates visual selections and drag-and-drop operations into the necessary configuration data, shielding the manager from complex programming details while achieving the same result
2Ease of operation
If visual configuration page is used, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the configuration system into distinct modular components: a visual configuration page interface, a preset component library, and a configuration data generation module. This segmentation allows the complex system to be organized into manageable parts, each with clear responsibilities, while presenting a simple unified interface to the user
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal configuration page that can handle multiple types of plug-in configurations through a single unified interface. The same visual configuration mechanism works for different component types (buttons, forms, tables), eliminating the need for separate configuration tools for each component type

AI summary
Embodiments of this specification disclose a configuration method, apparatus, and device for a mini program plug-in. The solution may include: providing to a mini program manager a plug-in configuration page that displays preset controls for setting service data and a service data display style at a target plug-in, and determining plug-in configuration information of the mini program manager for the target plug-in at a target mini program based on operation information of a plug-in setting operation performed by the mini program manager using the preset controls, such that when the mini program manager instructs to publish the target plug-in, a plug-in page access address for the target plug-in can be generated according to the plug-in configuration information, which allows the mini program manager to directly use the plug-in page access address to deploy the target plug-in at the target mini program.
