It will be appreciated that the data so used may be interchanged under appropriate circumstances such that embodiments of the application may be practiced in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein, and that the terms "first," "second," and the like are generally used herein in a generic sense and do not limit the number of terms, e.g., the first term can be one or more than one. In addition, "and/or" in the specification and claims means at least one of connected objects, a character "/" generally means that a preceding and succeeding related objects are in an "or" relationship.

The following describes the file storage method provided by the embodiment of the present application in detail through a specific embodiment and an application scenario thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a file storage method according to an embodiment of the present application, which is applied to an electronic device, and includes:

step S1: and when the target file is stored, acquiring target characteristic information of the target file.

The application scenarios of the embodiment are as follows: in the chat software, a user chats with friends, receives files such as pictures sent by the friends, and clicks the 'save' control, so that the files such as the pictures are stored.

The application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: in the chat software, files such as pictures sent by friends are received, and the files such as the pictures are automatically stored.

The application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: the user copies the files in the external device to the electronic device, thereby storing the copied files.

Wherein the target property information includes at least file name information and file size information.

In this step, the purpose of acquiring the target feature information of the target file is to: and comparing the target characteristic information with the characteristic information of the file stored in the electronic equipment to judge whether the file which is the same as the target file is stored in a system of the electronic equipment or not, so that the file which is the same as the target file is prevented from being stored repeatedly.

Optionally, the target property information includes file name information and file size information.

When the file name information and the file size information of the target file are completely the same as the file name information and the file size information of a certain stored file, the fact that the file which is the same as the target file is stored in the system of the electronic equipment is indicated.

Optionally, the target characteristic information may further include more characteristic information for comparison.

Optionally, the target file is any one of a picture, a document, a video, and the like.

Step S2: and storing the target file identification of the target file in the target folder under the condition that the target characteristic information is matched with the first characteristic information of the first file.

The first file is stored in a first folder, and the target folder is different from the first folder.

In this embodiment, the target characteristic information is matched with the first characteristic information of the first file, and the target characteristic information of the target file is completely consistent with the first characteristic information of the first file.

The mark in the present application is used for indicating words, symbols, images, interfaces, time and the like of information, and a control or other container can be used as a carrier for displaying information, including but not limited to a word mark, a symbol mark, an image mark.

Optionally, the target file identification is used to indicate the target file.

For example, the target file is identified as a shortcut icon for representing the target file.

Generally, the storage space of the electronic device is divided into two parts, one part is a system partition, and the user of the partition of the part can not write and only read, so that the problem of writing a duplicate file does not exist. The other part is a data (data) partition, namely a user use space, and the other part is readable and writable; the data partition management divides the data of the kernel file system management user. Therefore, the target folder and the first folder in the embodiment are both located in the data partition, and the kernel file system can monitor the event of the stored file in real time to avoid the phenomenon of writing in the duplicate file.

Further, in this step, in the case of storing the target file, the kernel file system accepts the task of creating the target file, and first inquires whether there is a duplicate file already existing: if the target file does not exist, the creation of the target file is executed, and the target file is stored; and if the target file exists, creating a shortcut icon of the target file, and storing the target file identifier.

The target file identification is a soft link file, and the target file identification is associated with the storage path of the first file.

When the user clicks the target file identifier, the first file may be opened as the target file based on the storage path of the first file.

In the flow of the file storage method according to another embodiment of the present application, after step S1, the method further includes:

step A1: and under the condition that the target characteristic information is matched with the first characteristic information of the first file, outputting a target prompt message.

The target prompting message is used for prompting that the target characteristic information is matched with the first characteristic information of the first file.

In this embodiment, the output target prompting message is delivered to the application layer, and the application layer delivers the target prompting message to the user.

Optionally, if the delivery is made to the user for the first time, the user is actively entering the function guide interface for setting.

Alternatively, the user may set in advance.

Referring to fig. 2, optionally, the setting scenario of the present embodiment is that, in the setting interface, the user may select any one of the first two manners in the illustration.

Referring to fig. 3, in the first manner shown in fig. 2, a target hint message is notified to the user by a notification bar in the form of a notification message.

Referring to fig. 4, in the second mode shown in fig. 2, the target alert message is notified to the user by a pop-up window in the form of an alert message.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the control in which the target prompt message is located further includes a first control and a second control. The first control is an option control such as "reserve", "allow", and the like, and the second control is an option control such as "delete", "block", and the like.

Step A2: a first input to a first control in a target alert message is received.

The first input comprises touch input performed by a user on a screen, and is not limited to input of clicking, sliding, dragging and the like; the first input may also be a first operation, where the first operation includes a blank operation of the user, and is not limited to a gesture action operation, a face action operation, and the like, and the first operation also includes an operation of a physical key on the device, and is not limited to a press operation and the like. Furthermore, the first input includes one or more inputs, wherein the plurality of inputs may be continuous or intermittent.

Application scenarios such as, user clicking on the "keep" option control; as another example, the user clicks on the "allow" options control.

Step A3: in response to a first input, a target file is stored in a target folder.

In this step, the target file may be stored in the target folder based on the user's selection.

Optionally, the target file stored in this step is an entity file.

Optionally, based on the user's settings, this step may also store the target file identification, which is a soft-link file.

Alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

step A4: a second input to a second control in the target alert message is received.

The second input comprises touch input performed by a user on the screen, and is not limited to input of clicking, sliding, dragging and the like; the second input may also be a second operation, the first operation includes a blank operation of the user and is not limited to a gesture action operation, a face action operation and the like, and the second operation also includes an operation of the user on an entity key on the device and is not limited to a press operation and the like. Also, the second input includes one or more inputs, wherein the plurality of inputs may be continuous or intermittent.

An application scenario is that the user clicks a "delete" option control; as another example, the user clicks on the "block" option control.

Step A5: in response to the second input, terminating storing the target file in the target folder.

In this step, based on the user's selection, the storage of the target file in the target folder is terminated, i.e., the target file is not created in the target folder, and at the same time, the target file identification is not created.

Further, the user may find a first file in the first folder that duplicates the target file.

In this embodiment, the user may perform a preset setting, so that the user selects to store or terminate the storage when the duplicate file is stored, which not only prevents the electronic device from automatically storing a large number of duplicate files, saves the user space, but also meets the personalized requirements of the user.

In the flow of the file storage method according to another embodiment of the present application, before step S2, the user may select the fourth mode in the interface shown in fig. 2.

In the fourth approach shown in fig. 2, the target hint message need not be output, but rather the file identification is stored directly.

In this embodiment, the target file identifier is stored in the target folder, so that the target file can be seen in two positions, namely the new directory (target folder) and the old directory (first folder), without occupying the user space.

step B1: in the case where the target characteristic information matches the first characteristic information of the first file, the storage of the target file in the target folder is terminated.

Prior to this step, the user may select the third way in the interface shown in fig. 2.

In the third approach shown in fig. 2, the target-prompting message does not need to be output, but the storage of the target file is terminated directly.

In this embodiment, in order to avoid the storage space of the device being occupied by the repeated files, the operation of storing the target file and the related content may also be terminated directly based on the setting of the user.

In a file storage method according to another embodiment of the present application, the target folder is a preset folder.

Considering that monitoring the whole data partition may disturb the user due to frequent homonymous file reminding, the user may actually recommend monitoring to the user aiming at the high-frequency folders in which the repeated files appear, and the user sets which folders to monitor.

Referring to fig. 5, a setting scenario is that, in a setting interface, a "folder" control is operated, so that a setting interface of a folder is displayed, and in the setting interface of the folder, a target folder is selected as a preset folder.

For example, the target folder is a folder in a file storage directory corresponding to the social software. As another example, the target folder is an album folder.

In this way, the electronic device monitors only the folders preset by the user. Specifically, when a file is being stored in a preset folder, whether a duplicate file exists is judged based on other files of the data partition.

In addition, when the target folder comprises a plurality of subfolders, whether repeated files exist can be judged based on files in other subfolders in the target folder when any subfolder stores the files, and therefore the matching range can be reduced.

And/or;

the target folder and the first folder are both preset folders.

Referring to fig. 5, a setting scenario is that, in a setting interface, a "folder" control is operated, so that a setting interface of a folder is displayed, and in the setting interface of the folder, a target folder and a first folder are selected as preset folders.

For example, the target folder is a certain folder in a file storage directory corresponding to the social software, and the first folder is an album folder.

In this way, the electronic device monitors only the folders preset by the user. Specifically, when a file is being stored in a preset folder, it is determined whether there is a duplicate file based on all files in the preset folder.

Meanwhile, the folders used for matching and comparing are not all data partitions, the probability of file repetition can be reduced, and the frequency of disturbing a user due to file repetition is further reduced.

And/or;

the target folder is located under a file storage directory corresponding to a preset application program.

Considering that monitoring the whole data partition may disturb the user due to frequent homonym file reminding, the high-frequency application program appearing in the repeated file can be recommended to the user for monitoring, and the user can set which application programs to monitor.

Referring to fig. 5, a setting scenario is that, in a setting interface, an "application list" control is operated, so that the setting interface of the application list is displayed, and in the setting interface of the application list, at least one application program is selected as a preset application program, so that the preset application program includes a target folder.

Therefore, the electronic equipment only monitors the folders in the file storage directory corresponding to the application program preset by the user. Specifically, when a folder in a file storage directory corresponding to a preset application program is storing a file, whether a duplicate file exists is judged based on other files of the data partition.

In addition, when a plurality of folders exist in the file storage directory corresponding to the preset application program, and when any folder stores a file, whether a duplicate file exists or not can be judged based on files in other folders in the file storage directory corresponding to the preset application program, so that the matching range can be reduced.

And/or:

the target folder and the first folder are both located under a file storage directory corresponding to a preset application program.

Referring to fig. 5, a setting scenario is that, in a setting interface, an "application list" control is operated, so that the setting interface of the application list is displayed, and in the setting interface of the application list, at least one application program is selected as a preset application program, so that the preset application program includes a target folder and a first folder.

Therefore, the electronic equipment only monitors the folders in the file storage directory corresponding to the application program preset by the user. Specifically, when a folder in a file storage directory corresponding to a preset application program is storing a file, whether a duplicate file exists is determined based on files in all folders in the file storage directory corresponding to the preset application program.

And/or;

the target file and the first file both belong to a preset file type.

Monitoring is carried out aiming at some or several files, such as: doc, excel, mov, jpg, png, pdf, etc.

Referring to fig. 5, a setting scenario is that, in a setting interface, a "file type" control is operated, so that a setting interface of a file type is displayed, and in the setting interface of the file type, at least one file type is selected as a preset file type, so that the target file and the first file are both preset file types.

In this way, the electronic device only monitors the file types preset by the user. Specifically, when the electronic equipment is storing files of a preset file type, whether repeated files exist is judged based on files of the same type of the data partition.

And/or;

the target file and the first file both satisfy a preset file size.

In general, there are many small files in an electronic device, but the consumption of the used space is not large, and a user can set the stored files to exceed a certain size for processing, such as: the stored file is larger than 10 MB.

Referring to fig. 5, in a setting scenario, for example, in a setting interface, a "file size" control is operated, so that a setting interface of the file size is displayed, and in the setting interface of the file size, for example, 10MB is selected as a preset file size, so that both the target file and the first file meet the preset file size.

In this way, the electronic device monitors only files that satisfy the file size preset by the user. Specifically, when the electronic equipment is storing a file, and the file is larger than the preset file size, whether a duplicate file exists is judged based on the files of the same type of the data partition.

In summary, in the embodiment, various settings may be mutually overlapped to achieve the monitoring effect expected by the user, so that not only the usage space of the user is prevented from being occupied by the repeated files, but also the influence on the user caused by frequent storage of the repeated files is avoided, and the personalized requirements of the user are met.

In the flow of the file storage method according to another embodiment of the present application, after step S2, the method further includes:

step C1: a third input is received identifying the target file.

The third input comprises touch input performed by a user on the screen, and is not limited to input of clicking, sliding, dragging and the like; the third input may also be a third operation, where the third operation includes a blank operation of the user, and is not limited to a gesture action operation, a face action operation, and the like, and the third operation also includes an operation of the user on an entity key on the device, and is not limited to a press operation and the like. Also, the third input includes one or more inputs, wherein the plurality of inputs may be continuous or intermittent.

And the application scene is that the user clicks the identification of the target file to enter the display interface of the target file.

Step C2: and responding to the third input, determining the file content of the first file as the file content of the target file, and displaying the file content of the target file.

In this step, the first file is acquired through the storage path of the first file based on the association of the target file identifier and the storage path of the first file, so that the file content of the first file is displayed as the file content of the target file.

Step C3: a fourth input is received for the file content of the target file.

Wherein the fourth input is for updating the file content of the target file.

The fourth input comprises touch input performed by a user on the screen, and is not limited to input of clicking, sliding, dragging and the like; the fourth input may also be a fourth operation, where the fourth operation includes a blank operation of the user, and is not limited to a gesture action operation, a face action operation, and the like, and the fourth operation also includes an operation of the user on an entity key on the device, and is not limited to a press operation and the like. Further, the fourth input includes one or more inputs, wherein the plurality of inputs may be continuous or intermittent.

Application scenarios are e.g. a user editing the content of a file.

Step C4: and in response to a fourth input, storing the target file after the file content is updated in the target folder.

Since the target file identifier is one of the soft-link files of the first file, if the user needs to edit the file content in the target file, the target file may be stored after editing, instead of storing the target file identifier. That is, the target folder stores one entity file.

Alternatively, the user may operate the "file editing" control in the setting interface shown in fig. 5, so as to display the setting interface for file editing, and set the editing rule in the setting interface for file editing, so that this embodiment is implemented. For example, when a user needs to edit the content in the soft link file, a copy of the entity file is first copied.

In this embodiment, in order to avoid the usage space of the user occupied by the repeated files, the repeated files may be stored in the form of file identifiers. When the user needs to perform operations such as editing on the file indicated by the file identifier, in order to avoid editing the original file together, an entity file can be stored again for the edited file, and the file is not a duplicate file any more. In this way, the stored original file and the duplicate file have independence, respectively, so that operability of each file can be ensured.

In a flow of a file storage method according to another embodiment of the present application, in a case where a first file is stored in a first folder, the method further includes:

step D1: a fifth input is received for the first file.

The fifth input comprises touch input performed by a user on the screen, and is not limited to input of clicking, sliding, dragging and the like; the fifth input may also be a fifth operation, where the fifth operation includes a blank operation of the user, and is not limited to a gesture action operation, a face action operation, and the like, and the fifth operation also includes an operation of the user on an entity key on the device, and is not limited to a press operation and the like. Moreover, the fifth input includes one or more inputs, wherein the plurality of inputs may be continuous or intermittent.

An application scenario is that a user edits the file content of the first file; in another example, the user deletes the first file.

Step D2: in response to a fifth input, hiding the first file in the first folder if the storage path of the first file is associated with the at least one file identification.

When a user operates the first file, the storage path of the first file is associated with at least one file identifier, so that the first file is used as an original file and cannot be directly edited and deleted, and a copy is reserved as the original file and is hidden in the first folder.

In this way, when the file identifier associated with the first file is operated, the content of the file indicated by the file identifier can be displayed based on the first file hidden in the first folder.

Optionally, the user may operate the "file editing" and "file deleting" controls in the setting interface shown in fig. 5, so as to correspondingly display the setting interface for file editing and file deleting, and set the editing rule and the deleting rule in different interfaces, so that this embodiment is implemented.

Further, based on the setting of the rule, the method can also realize that if the current file is an entity file and is not associated with a soft link file, the current file is directly deleted; if the current file is an entity file and is associated with a soft link file, hiding the file and not really deleting the file; if the current file is a soft link file but the corresponding entity file is not deleted, only deleting the soft link file; and if the current file is a soft link file, but the corresponding entity file has the deleted operation, deleting the soft link file and the corresponding entity file.

In addition, based on the setting of the rule, when the user performs an operation such as editing on the first file (i.e., the original file), the first file is first hidden, the edited content is updated, and the edited file is stored. Wherein the edited file is defined as a second file for distinction.

Referring to fig. 6, optionally, when a user deletes or edits an entity file, the user may be prompted which soft-linked files the current file is associated with so that the user can know how many applications of a file wish to manipulate it, and thus understand the role of the file.

In this embodiment, when the original file is operated, a copy of the original file before being operated needs to be retained. Therefore, when the user operates the soft link file associated with the original file, the soft link file can be ensured to be normally opened.

In the file storage method according to another embodiment of the present application, when storing a target file, if a user renames a duplicate file based on a prompt for duplicate storage or the user initiatively renames the duplicate file, the user is considered to wish to store a new file, and thus an entity file with a new name is selected by default to be stored.

Optionally, the user may operate the "file renaming" control in the setting interface shown in fig. 5, so as to display the setting interface for renaming the file, and set the processing rule for renaming the file in the setting interface for renaming the file, so that this embodiment is implemented.

In the embodiment, based on the operation of renaming the duplicate file by the user, the file with the new name is stored in consideration of the fact that the user needs to store the file, so that the user requirement is met.

In the file storage method according to another embodiment of the present application, when the user copies a file, the user may select to copy the entity file or copy the soft link file.

Alternatively, the user may operate the "file copy" control in the setting interface shown in fig. 5, so as to display the setting interface of the file copy, and set the processing rule for the copied file in the setting interface of the file copy, so that this embodiment is implemented. Wherein the user can choose to either copy the entity file or copy the soft-link file.

For example, when the copy file is a duplicate file, either of the corresponding entity file or the soft link file may be copied based on the setting of the user.

Alternatively, after the user completes the setup shown in fig. 2, the user may jump to the setup interface shown in fig. 5, and the user completes a series of setups.

In summary, in the embodiments of the present application, in view of the shortcomings of the background art, the present application can avoid the duplicate storage of the same file, save the usage space of the user, avoid the pain of the user in subsequently cleaning the file, and the user does not need to worry about the file being mistaken. In addition, the method and the device do not increase any cost, avoid frequent writing of repeated data by the application, and monitor the data writing amount of the application.
