Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an icon updating method according to an exemplary embodiment, where as shown in fig. 3, the interaction subjects of the icon updating method are a terminal and a server, and the method includes the following steps:
in step 301, the terminal displays a first icon designating an application, the first icon being composed of a fixed icon resource and a first controllable icon resource.
In this embodiment, the icon of the designated application is divided into two parts, namely a fixed icon resource and a controllable icon resource, the fixed icon resource refers to an icon resource which does not need to be updated automatically, the controllable icon resource refers to an icon resource which can be controlled by the server or the terminal to be updated automatically, and the icon of the designated application can be updated by updating the controllable icon resource.
The designated application can be a shopping application, a payment application, a social application and the like, the terminal can be any type of terminal for installing the designated application, such as a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet computer and the like, the server is a server for providing services for the designated application and is associated with the designated application, and if the designated application is the shopping application, the server can be a shopping server. This embodiment does not limit the designated application, the terminal, and the server.
The fixed icon resource can include the name of the designated application, a graphic mark and other information for identifying the designated application, and the information included in the fixed icon resource is usually rarely changed and does not need to be updated frequently. And the controllable icon resource can comprise information with high timeliness, such as activity information published by a specific application. The specific content of the fixed icon resource and the controllable icon resource can be determined by the server.
For example, the server obtains an installation package of the specified application, where the installation package includes a fixed icon resource and an initial controllable icon resource. In addition, the server may also store the fixed icon resource and the initial controllable icon resource in different storage spaces, so that the fixed icon resource and the controllable icon resource can be updated separately in the following.
When the terminal downloads the specified application for the first time, the installation package of the specified application is downloaded from the server, at this time, the terminal can download the fixed icon resource and the initial controllable icon resource from the server, form an initial icon according to the fixed icon resource and the initial controllable icon resource, and display the initial icon.
The terminal may also save the fixed icon resource and the initial controllable icon resource. When saving, the terminal can also respectively save the fixed icon resource and the initial controllable icon resource in different storage spaces, so that the two types of icon resources can be separately updated in the following.
It should be noted that the initial controllable icon resource is specific to the terminal, and refers to the controllable icon resource downloaded when the terminal downloads the specified application for the first time. The initial icon is also specific to the terminal, and means that the icon is displayed according to the initial controllable icon resource when the terminal downloads the designated application for the first time, and as the controllable icon resource is updated by the server for multiple times, different terminals have different occasions for downloading the designated application for the first time, so that the initial controllable icon resources downloaded by different terminals are different, and the displayed initial icons are also different.
In the following process, the server may update the controllable icon resource of the specified application one or more times, and this embodiment only takes the process of updating the first controllable icon resource to the second controllable icon resource as an example for description. The first controllable icon resource may be the initial controllable icon resource, or may be a controllable icon resource obtained by updating the initial controllable icon resource one or more times, which is not limited in this embodiment.
When the currently updated controllable icon resource is the first controllable icon resource, the terminal may constitute the first icon according to the fixed icon resource and the first controllable icon resource, and display the first icon. When the terminal detects the click operation on the first icon, the terminal can start the designated application and display a main interface of the designated application, or display an interface displayed when the designated application exits last time.
In step 302, the server updates the first controllable icon resource of the designated application to the second controllable icon resource and adds an update identifier to the designated application.
When the current controllable icon resource is the first controllable icon resource, the server may acquire the second controllable icon resource, and update the first controllable icon resource of the designated application as the second controllable icon resource.
For example, the server stores a fixed icon resource in the first storage space, stores a controllable icon resource in the second storage space, and replaces the first controllable icon resource currently stored in the second storage space with the second controllable icon resource when the server acquires the second controllable icon resource.
In addition, in order to ensure timeliness of the second controllable icon resource, the server may add timestamp information to the second controllable icon resource, where the timestamp information is used to indicate a validity period of the second controllable icon resource, and the second controllable icon resource is valid within the validity period.
The second controllable icon resource and the validity period may be set by a maintenance person of the server, or may be generated by the server according to activity information issued by the specified application.
For example, the server extracts a keyword from the event information issued by the specified application, generates a second controllable icon resource according to the keyword, and takes the validity period of the event information as the validity period of the second controllable icon resource.
After the first controllable icon resource is updated to the second controllable icon resource, the server may add an update identifier to the designated application, where the update identifier is used to indicate that the controllable icon resource has been updated. The update identifier may be a specific numerical value or may be update time of the controllable icon resource, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In step 303, the terminal sends an icon resource update request to the server.
In order to update the icon, the terminal sends an icon resource update request to the server, wherein the icon resource update request is used for requesting the controllable icon resource to be updated. The terminal may send the icon resource update request in real time, or may send the icon resource update request periodically, where the sending period may be 10 hours, one day, and the like, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In step 304, when the server receives the icon resource updating request, and determines that the controllable icon resource has been updated according to the updating identifier, the server sends the updated second controllable icon resource to the terminal.
When the server receives the icon resource updating request, whether the updating identifier is added to the specified application or not can be judged, if the updating identifier is determined to be added to the specified application, the controllable icon resource of the specified application is determined to be updated, at this time, the updated second controllable icon resource can be obtained, and the updated second controllable icon resource is sent to the terminal. In the subsequent process, when the second controllable icon resource is invalid, the server may also delete the update identifier.
In another embodiment, the terminal does not need to send an icon resource update request to the server, and when the server updates the first controllable icon resource of the designated application to the second controllable icon resource, the server can actively push the second controllable icon resource to the terminal, so that the terminal receives the second controllable icon resource and updates the first icon.
In step 305, when the terminal receives the second controllable icon resource, the terminal constructs a second icon according to the fixed icon resource and the second controllable icon resource, and displays the second icon.
And when the terminal receives the second controllable icon resource, replacing the first controllable icon resource in the first icon with the second controllable icon resource, so that a second icon is formed according to the fixed icon resource and the second controllable icon resource, and the second icon is displayed.
For example, the terminal stores a fixed icon resource in the third storage space, stores a controllable icon resource in the fourth storage space, and when the terminal receives the second controllable icon resource, replaces the first controllable icon resource currently stored in the fourth storage space with the second controllable icon resource, so that the second icon can be formed according to the fixed icon resource and the second controllable icon resource, and the second icon is displayed.
In this embodiment, each time an icon is constructed according to the fixed icon resource and the controllable icon resource, the controllable icon resource may be located at a preset position of the fixed icon resource, for example, the controllable icon resource may be located at an upper left corner, an upper right corner, or a center position of the fixed icon resource. Referring to fig. 4, the controllable icon resource is located at the upper left corner of the fixed icon resource, and both constitute an icon.
The preset position may be determined by the server or the terminal by default, or may also be determined by the server for the controllable icon resource updated this time, and the preset positions corresponding to different controllable icon resources may be the same or different, and this embodiment does not limit the preset position.
When the icon is displayed, the terminal may display a plurality of installed application icons in an application display interface, where the application icons include the icon of the designated application, and the application display interface may be a main interface or other interfaces of the terminal, which is not limited in this embodiment.
When the second controllable icon resource includes timestamp information, the terminal may determine a validity period of the second controllable icon resource according to the timestamp information, and when the end time point of the validity period is reached, the second controllable icon resource is invalid, at this time, the terminal may restore the second controllable icon resource to the first controllable icon resource before updating, or update the second controllable icon resource to a default controllable icon resource, where the default controllable icon resource may be set by the terminal by default or set by the server and then sent to the terminal, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In the process of updating the icon, a user does not need to manually trigger the updating operation, does not need to download the installation package of the latest version of the specified application, and only needs to download the updated controllable icon resource.
It should be noted that, the above embodiments only focus on the updating process of the controllable icon resource, and in practical applications, the fixed icon resource may also be updated. Specifically, the server updates the fixed icon resources, the updated fixed icon resources are added to the installation package of the latest version of the specified application, and when a user manually triggers an update request for the specified application on the terminal, the terminal downloads the installation package of the latest version of the specified application from the server, and the updated fixed icon resources can be obtained, so that a new icon is formed according to the updated fixed icon resources and the current controllable icon resources.
In the related art, when an application issues a new activity, an icon cannot be updated automatically, and the icon can only be updated when the user updates the application manually, so that the operation is complicated, and too much traffic and time are consumed for updating the installation package of the whole application. Moreover, if the user does not update, the activity information published by the application cannot be timely communicated to the user, the user cannot be attracted to participate in the activity, and the user's viscosity is low.
In the embodiment, the application icon is divided into the fixed icon resource and the controllable icon resource, when the application publishes a new activity, the controllable icon resource can be directly and automatically updated, the operation is simple and convenient, the installation package of the whole application does not need to be updated, the flow and the time are saved, in addition, the activity information can be added into the application icon in time, so the activity information is transmitted to the user, the user is attracted to participate in the activity, and the viscosity of the user is improved.
For an application provider, when information needs to be transmitted to a user, the new version of the application does not need to be updated, and only the controllable icon resources of the icons need to be replaced, so that the development efficiency is improved, the period from development to information perception of the user is shortened, and the user can know the new trend of the application at the first time.
According to the method provided by the embodiment, the application icon is divided into the fixed icon resource and the controllable icon resource, the fixed icon resource and the controllable icon resource can be sent to the terminal after the server updates the controllable icon resource, the terminal automatically updates the icon according to the fixed icon resource and the updated controllable icon resource, a user does not need to perform manual updating operation, the icon updating process is simplified, and the icon is convenient to manage. Moreover, the controllable icon resource containing the activity information is actively pushed, so that the user can be attracted to participate in the activity published by the specified application, and the viscosity of the user is improved.
