A method for processing a chat log of an instant chat tool according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 2 to 6.
Referring to fig. 2, a flow chart of a chat log processing method of the instant chat tool according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided. As shown in fig. 2, may include:
s201, responding to the request for obtaining the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user, and reading the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user from the cache.
In some embodiments, the request for obtaining the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user may specifically be a request for triggering display of the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user. For example, when the user clicks a control or button such as "show more messages" or "get historical chat", a request is sent to trigger the display of historical chat records between the current user and a particular user. For another example, when the user scrolls down the screen in the chat window between the current user and the specific user by using a mouse, a request for triggering the display of the historical chat history between the current user and the specific user may be sent. It should be noted that, the user may send a request for triggering and displaying the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user through various operations, and the specific implementation manner may be flexible and various, and is not limited herein.
In some embodiments, the request for obtaining the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user may also be a request for triggering the display of an unread instant message between the current user and the specific user. For example, when the user triggers the display of an unread instant message by opening a chat window of the chat tool with a specific user, it may be determined that a request for obtaining a history chat record between the current user and the specific user is sent. For another example, if the user closes the chat window with the specific user, when receiving the instant message sent by the specific user to the current user, the instant chat tool may display a prompt message to prompt the user that there is an unread message. When the user clicks the prompt message to trigger the display of the unread message, it may be determined that a request for obtaining a history chat record between the current user and the specific user is sent. It should be noted that, in some embodiments, after receiving a request for triggering display of an unread instant message between a current user and a specific user, it may be further determined whether the number or the volume of the unread instant messages is less than a set threshold; and if so, determining to send a request for acquiring the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user. The set threshold may be set according to needs, for example, the set threshold may be an upper limit of the number or the volume of the messages displayed on the display interface of the instant chat tool. The capacity of a message may refer to the number of words, the number of lines, or the occupied space of information contained in the message. For example, assuming that the current user a closes the chat window with the user B, when receiving a new message sent by the user B to the user a, it may be determined whether the number or the capacity of the new message is greater than the upper limit of the display message of the display interface; if the judgment result is negative, the historical chat records are obtained, so that the new messages and the historical chat records can be combined and displayed, the user can conveniently and quickly obtain the context information, and the user can conveniently communicate.
In some embodiments, the request for obtaining the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user may also be a request for obtaining the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user when receiving an instant message sent by the specific user to the current user and determining that the number or the capacity of the instant message is smaller than a set threshold. For example, instead of obtaining the historical chat records in response to a user triggering a request for displaying an unread message, in this embodiment, the request for obtaining the historical chat records is triggered when a new unread message is obtained and when the message is determined to meet a preset condition.
In some embodiments, the reading the history chat records between the current user and the specific user from the cache includes: judging whether the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user are read from a local storage space or not; if the judgment result is yes, reading the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user from the cache. Further, the method further comprises: if the judgment result is negative, reading the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user from the local storage space, storing the read chat record in a cache, and recording the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user which is read from the local storage space. For example, when a request for obtaining a historical chat log is received, it can be determined whether the chat log has been read from the local storage space. For example, an identifier may be set to distinguish whether a chat log has been read locally. And if the chat records are judged to be read from the local storage space according to the set identification, directly reading the chat records from the cache. If the chat records are judged not to be read from the local storage space according to the set identification, the chat records can be read from the local storage space and stored in the cache. Further, the flag is set to indicate that the chat log has been read from the local storage space. When a request for obtaining the chat records is received again, the chat records can be directly obtained from the cache. Because the local storage space is accessed only when the identifier does not read the chat records from the local storage space, the chat records are read from the cache in other scenes, the speed of obtaining the chat records is greatly improved, and the loss of the local storage space is reduced.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises: and when the trigger condition is determined to be met, reading the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user from the local storage space in advance, and storing the read chat record in a cache. In this implementation, the historical chat records may be read from the local storage space in advance and saved in the cache. When a request for retrieving a chat log is received, the chat log is retrieved from the cache each time. The time for acquiring the historical chat records in advance can be when a trigger condition is met, and the specific trigger condition can be very flexible as long as the historical chat records are acquired from the local storage space at one time before the request for acquiring the chat records is received. For example, when an instant message sent by a particular user to a current user is received, it may be determined that a trigger condition is satisfied. For another example, when an operation of displaying a chat window of a current user and a specific user is received, it is determined that the trigger condition is satisfied. Of course, the above is only an exemplary illustration, and the specific trigger condition may be flexible as long as the historical chat records are acquired from the local storage space at one time before the request for acquiring the chat records is received.
In some embodiments, the reading the history chat records between the current user and the specific user from the cache includes: judging whether the number or the capacity of the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user stored in the cache is larger than a set threshold value or not; if the judgment result is yes, directly reading the historical chat records with the quantity or the capacity equal to the set threshold value from the cache; if not, reading part of the historical chat records from the local storage space and storing the historical chat records in the cache, so that the number or the capacity of the historical chat records in the cache is larger than or equal to a set threshold. For example, when the user clicks "view more," N history messages may be triggered to load. Wherein, the setting of N can be carried out according to the requirement. At this point, the top message (typically the one that is the longest from the current time) of the chat session is found, and then N historical message records are read from the cache forward, with this message as the boundary. Specifically, if the history message records in the cache are sufficient, that is, greater than or equal to N, the read history chat records are directly displayed on the top of the chat session. If the historical message records stored in the cache are judged to be less than N, if the messages in the cache meeting the conditions are M, the (N-M) messages are read forwards from the local historical records by taking the first message record in the cache as a boundary, and are stored in the cache. Then, find the top message of the chat session, and then take this message as the boundary, read the N message records from the buffer and show them.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises: when the historical chat records contain pictures, judging whether pictures corresponding to the picture identifications are stored in a cache or not according to the picture identifications; and if so, acquiring the picture corresponding to the picture identifier from the cache. Further, if the judgment result is negative, the picture is obtained from the local storage space, and the picture and the corresponding relation between the picture and the picture identifier are stored in the cache. For example, in a specific implementation of the present invention, when the chat record is saved, if the chat record includes a picture, only the identifier of the picture is saved in the chat record and is used for identifying the picture. Further, the invention can be provided with a picture cache for storing picture data corresponding to the picture ID. When obtaining the historical chat record, if the chat record is judged to contain the picture, for example, if the chat record contains the picture ID, whether the picture corresponding to the picture ID is stored in the picture cache can be judged according to the picture ID; if the judgment result is yes, the picture content is directly acquired for displaying, so that the speed of acquiring the picture is greatly improved, and the picture does not need to be downloaded from the local storage space every time. And if the picture does not exist, reading the picture from the local storage space and storing the picture in a picture cache. Because pictures in the chat records of the instant chat tool are often repeated, such as various emoticons, the pictures and the corresponding relationship between the picture identifiers and the pictures only need to be stored in the picture cache, that is, the pictures can be directly read from the cache when the same pictures are obtained, and the pictures with the same picture identifiers are only stored in the cache once, so that the waste of storage space is reduced. Wherein, the identification of the picture can be obtained by obtaining the MD5 value of the picture. It should be noted that, through the above processing, the speed of acquiring and displaying the picture information can be increased independently, and it is not necessary to read the picture from the local disk each time.
S202, displaying the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user.
It should be noted that, in specific implementation, the historical chat records can be separately displayed. Or it may be presented in combination with the unread instant message. For example, the instant message may be displayed in combination with the historical chat history in response to a user triggering a request to display the instant message.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises: saving the access time of the historical chat records obtained from the cache; and when the triggering condition is met, determining the history chatting record which is used least recently according to the access time, and deleting the history chatting record from the cache. For example, if there are many chat records of the current user, there are many chat records and pictures stored in the cache, and the memory of the computer is occupied, so as to reduce the memory occupation, the access time of the current user for obtaining the chat records of the specific user can be identified when accessing the cache each time; and triggering and judging whether the current cache data exceeds the upper limit of the cache and unread new messages do not exist in the cache, if so, determining the chat records which are used least recently according to the access time, and deleting the chat records from the cache. The chat record which is used least recently may be a record in which the access time exceeds a set threshold from the current time, or may be a chat record in which the access frequency is the least within a preset time. Through the processing, the memory occupation can be effectively reduced, and the memory overhead can be reduced.
In some embodiments, the reading the history chat records between the current user and the specific user from the cache includes: reading a part of historical chat records meeting specific conditions between a current user and a specific user from a cache; the specific conditions comprise historical chat records which meet specific time conditions, specific place conditions or specific keywords; the displaying the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user comprises: and displaying the partial historical chat records, wherein each chat record in the partial historical chat records does not have a time continuous relationship or the historical chat records do not have a time continuous relationship with the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool. In the concrete implementation, instead of obtaining all the chat records between the current user and the specific user and continuously displaying the chat records according to the time sequence, only part of the historical chat records which meet the specific conditions can be obtained and displayed. For example, historical chat records that meet specific time conditions. Assuming that the current time is friday, the current user a is chatting with a particular user B through the instant chat facility. User B mentions: "how well the things mentioned in tuesday are processed", at this time, the user a is likely to want to see the chatting records of tuesday, at this time, "tuesday" may be determined as a keyword, only the history chatting records corresponding to tuesday are obtained from the cache, and the chatting records of tuesday are displayed in the chatting interface. Thus, the Tuesday chat history and the most recent chat history presented in the current window (Friday) do not have a time-continuous relationship. In this way, not only less data can be obtained, but also the user can conveniently and intuitively view the interesting content without searching for the interesting content in a large number of chat records (for example, all the chat records in a continuous time period of friday to tuesday). Also for example, the chat history can be a chat history meeting the specific location condition. If the login place is changed when the current user frequently goes on a business trip, the chat records of the specific place can be obtained according to the input of the user. As another example, the portion of the historical chat history may also be a chat history that matches a particular keyword. When matching the keywords, the matching may be complete matching or partial matching, and may be exact matching or fuzzy matching. Further, machine learning algorithms can be used for artificial intelligence automatic matching. For example, user B mentions "how well ask XX is processed", and then can determine keyword "XX" and find the matched chat records. If there are multiple chat records for the keyword "XX", they can be displayed in combination. For example, if the current time is friday, and there are associated chat records on tuesday and wednesday, respectively, the chat records on wednesday and wednesday may be presented in reverse order of time. At this time, the chat records in the partial historical chat records displayed do not have a time continuous relationship.
In order to facilitate those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the embodiments of the present application in a specific context, the following describes the embodiments of the present application with two specific examples. It should be noted that the specific example is only to make the present invention more clearly understood by those skilled in the art, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the specific example.

s301, the instant chat tool receives a new message sent by a specific user to the current user.
For example, suppose user a receives a new message sent by user B after logging in the instant chat tool.
S302, the instant chat tool saves the new message in a cache and a local disk file.
It should be noted that the new message may be stored in a later storage location in the cache, and marked as a new message, while it is stored in the local disk file. The history message read from the local disk file is stored in the earlier storage location of the cache.
S303, responding to a request for triggering and displaying a new message by a user, reading the new message from the cache, and judging whether the number or the capacity of the new message is less than a set threshold value or not; if yes, go to step S304; and if the judgment result is negative, directly displaying the new message, and storing the displayed message in a history chat record cache corresponding to the specific user.
S304, judging whether the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user are read from the local storage space or not according to the set access identifier. If yes, go to S305; if the judgment result is negative, executing S306;
s305, reading the historical chat records of the current user and the specific user from the cache, and then executing S307.
It should be noted that the cache stores the history chat records read from the local disk file in advance and the history chat records directly stored in the cache, for example, the new message shown in S303 is stored in the history chat record cache corresponding to the specific user after the user views the new message.
S306, reading the historical chat records corresponding to the specific user from the local disk file, storing the chat records in a cache, setting an access identifier for indicating that the historical chat records between the current user and the specific user are read from the local storage space, and then executing S307.
S307, the new message and the historical chat record are merged and displayed.
When the method and the system are specifically implemented, the new message can be displayed for the user, and meanwhile, the historical chat records can be displayed together. When the user opens more chat sessions, the user can conveniently know the context information. Since the historical chat records can be directly read from the cache, the speed of obtaining the chat records and the efficiency of displaying messages are greatly improved, and better experience is brought to users.
Referring to fig. 4, a flow chart of a chat history processing method of the instant chat tool according to another embodiment of the present invention is provided. As shown in fig. 4, may include:
s401, the instant chat tool receives a new message sent by a specific user to the current user.
For example, suppose user a receives a new message sent by user B after logging in the instant chat tool.
S402, the instant chat tool saves the new message in a cache and a local disk file.
It should be noted that the new message may be stored in a later storage location in the cache, and marked as a new message, while it is stored in the local disk file. The history message read from the local disk file is stored in the earlier storage location of the cache.
And S403, responding to a request for displaying a new message triggered by a user, reading the new message from the cache, and displaying the new message.
For example, when the user a opens a chat session with the user B, the cache of the chat message between the user a and the user B may be found from the cache in response to the trigger operation, the cache data marked as the new message may be read from the cache, and the new message mark may be cleared. The new message read is then presented at the bottom of the current chat session.
S404, responding to the request of obtaining the historical chat records triggered by the user, and judging whether the quantity or the capacity of the historical chat records stored in the cache is larger than N. If yes, go to step S405; if the determination result is negative, S406 is executed.
S405, reading the historical chat records with the number or the capacity equal to N directly from the cache.
S406, reading partial history chat records from the local disk file and storing the partial history chat records in the cache, wherein the number or the capacity of the history chat records in the cache is larger than N, and reading the history chat records with the number or the capacity equal to N from the cache.
For example, when the user clicks "view more," N history messages may be triggered to load. Wherein, the setting of N can be carried out according to the requirement. At this time, the topmost message in the current conversation window, that is, the message displayed in the current conversation window and farthest from the current time is found, and N history message records are read forward from the cache by taking the message as a boundary. And if the historical message records stored in the cache are judged to be more than N, directly displaying the read N historical records. If the historical message records stored in the cache are smaller than N, for example, the historical message records stored in the current cache are M, the first message record in the cache is taken as a boundary (for example, the record which is stored in the cache and farthest from the current time), and the (N-M) message records are read forwards from the local historical message records and stored in the cache by taking the record which is stored in the cache and farthest from the current time as a boundary. Then, taking the top message displayed in the current conversation window as a boundary, and reading N message records from the cache forwards.
S407, displaying the N historical chat records obtained from the cache.
Referring to fig. 5, a flow chart of a chat history processing method of the instant chat tool according to another embodiment of the present invention is provided. As shown in fig. 5, may include:
s501, receiving an operation of triggering a first control by a user.
S502, responding to the operation that a user triggers a first control, and displaying at least part of historical chat records between the current user and a specific user; wherein, each chat record in the at least part of historical chat records has no time continuous relationship or the at least part of historical chat records and the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool have no time continuous relationship.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises: receiving an operation of triggering a second control by a user; responding to the operation that the user triggers the second control, and displaying at least part of historical chat records between the current user and the specific user; wherein, each chat record in the at least part of historical chat records has a time continuous relationship or the at least part of historical chat records and the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool have a time continuous relationship. Further, before displaying at least a portion of the historical chat history between the current user and the particular user, the method further comprises: reading at least part of historical chat records between the previous user and the specific user from the cache; the cache stores historical chat records read from a local storage space in advance and historical chat records directly stored in the cache.
In the embodiment of the invention, a mode of acquiring all the chat records of the user and continuously displaying the chat records according to the time sequence in the prior art can be replaced, only partial historical chat records which accord with specific conditions can be acquired and displayed, and the displayed historical chat records do not have time continuous relation or the at least partial historical chat records do not have time continuous relation with the chat records recently displayed by the current instant chat tool, so that the user can conveniently acquire the specific chat records. Because only part of the historical chat records are acquired, the data acquisition quantity is small, the reading speed is high, the information acquisition efficiency of the user is obviously improved, and the user experience is improved.
Specific implementations are described in detail below.
In particular, the second control and the first control can be displayed on a user interface of the instant chat tool. The second control is used for responding to the triggering of the user and displaying at least part of historical chat records between the current user and the specific user, and each chat record in the at least part of historical chat records has a time continuous relation or the historical chat records have a time continuous relation with the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool. The first control is used for responding to the triggering of a user and displaying at least part of historical chat records meeting specific conditions between the current user and the specific user, and all the chat records in the part of the historical chat records do not have time continuous relation or the historical chat records do not have time continuous relation with the chat records recently displayed by the current instant chat tool.
For example, the second control can display the last N chat records or display all the historical chat records, and the first control can display the related chat records. For example, the user may click on the second control if the user wants to view a historical chat history that is continuous in time, such as a history of a tuesday to friday chat. The first control may be triggered if the user wants to view a portion of the related chat history. See fig. 6A for details.
It should be noted that, in response to the user triggering the operation of the first control, the part of the historical chat records meeting the specific condition between the current user and the specific user, which are read from the cache, may be the part of the historical chat records meeting the specific condition. The specific condition includes a history chatting record meeting a specific time condition, a specific place condition or a specific keyword. In the concrete implementation, instead of obtaining all the chat records between the current user and the specific user and continuously displaying the chat records according to the time sequence, only part of the historical chat records which meet the specific conditions can be obtained and displayed. For example, historical chat records that meet specific time conditions. Assuming that the current time is friday, the current user a is chatting with a particular user B through the instant chat facility. User B mentions: "how well the things mentioned in tuesday are processed", at this time, the user a is likely to want to see the chatting records of tuesday, at this time, "tuesday" may be determined as a keyword, only the history chatting records corresponding to tuesday are obtained from the cache, and the chatting records of tuesday are displayed in the chatting interface. Thus, the Tuesday chat history and the most recent chat history presented in the current window (Friday) do not have a time-continuous relationship. In this way, not only less data can be obtained, but also the user can conveniently and intuitively view the interesting content without searching for the interesting content in a large number of chat records (for example, all the chat records in a continuous time period of friday to tuesday). Also for example, the chat history can be a chat history meeting the specific location condition. If the login place is changed when the current user frequently goes on a business trip, the chat records of the specific place can be obtained according to the input of the user. As another example, the portion of the historical chat history may also be a chat history that matches a particular keyword. When matching the keywords, the matching may be complete matching or partial matching, and may be exact matching or fuzzy matching. Further, machine learning algorithms can be used for artificial intelligence automatic matching. For example, user B mentions "how well ask XX is processed", and then can determine keyword "XX" and find the matched chat records. If there are multiple chat records for the keyword "XX", they can be displayed in combination. For example, if the current time is friday, and there are associated chat records on tuesday and wednesday, respectively, the chat records on wednesday and wednesday may be presented in reverse order of time. At this time, the chat records in the partial historical chat records displayed do not have a time continuous relationship.
In this embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of controls may be displayed in the user interface, and different display modes may be entered according to the triggering operation of the user on the controls. One mode of display is to present all or part of the chat log in a time-continuous manner. One mode of display is to present portions of the chat log in a non-time continuous manner. Fig. 6B and 6C are schematic views illustrating effects of the embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 6B is a time-continuous display and fig. 6C is a non-time-continuous display, wherein a dashed line separates the new chat log from the historical chat log. For example, suppose that user a and user B are chatting via the instant chat tool, the currently and recently presented chat records are new messages 103 and 104, the generation time of message 104 is 2016, 1, 8, 9, 31 minutes, and the generation time of message 103 is 2016, 1, 8, 9, 28 minutes. In a specific implementation, the second control 105 may be displayed on a display interface of the instant chat tool, for example, a control that displays all chat records; and a first control 106 is exposed, such as a control that displays relevant chat logs.
Referring to fig. 6B, if the user triggers the second control 105, the historical chat records of the previous user a and the previous user B in a continuous time period are read from the cache, and the chat records are sequentially displayed according to the time sequence. As shown in fig. 6B, as the user triggers the second control, in addition to presenting message 103 and message 104, historical chat log messages 101, 102 … … 107 are further presented. The generation time of the messages 101, 102, 107 is continuous, that is, the chat records generated continuously by the user going back and forth in the current time are obtained, and the presentation is also sequentially presented according to the time sequence. Corresponding to the display mode of fig. 6B, if the user wants to view the chatting records of tuesday (i.e., 1/4/2016), the user needs to search for the consecutive chatting records going back from the current time.
Referring to fig. 6C, if the user triggers the first control 106, that is, the user selects to display the relevant chat records, the historical chat records of the previous user a and the previous user B meeting the specific conditions are read from the cache. As shown in fig. 6C, if the user triggers the second control, in addition to presenting message 103 and message 104, only chat log 107 related to the current message, i.e. only the Tuesday (1/4/2016) chat log, is presented. Without revealing the messages 101, 102, etc. Corresponding to the display mode of fig. 6C, if the user can conveniently view the chatting records of tuesday (i.e., 2016, 1, 4), there is no need to search a large number of consecutive chatting records going back from the current time.
