Description

Application program hot update processing method, device and system

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of application hot update technologies, and in particular, to a method, an apparatus, and a system for processing application hot update.

Background

Before the hot update technology appears, if a bug appears in an online mobile terminal application program (app), even a very small bug may exist in the case of not updating in time, and if the bug needs to be updated in time, the app needs to be packaged and published to the application market again, so that the user can download the app again, and the user experience is greatly reduced. When a hot update occurs, such a problem is no longer a problem. The 'hot update' refers to dynamic code issuing in application, so that a developer can repair technical defects or add functions in a state that a new version is not issued, when a user opens the application, the developer can automatically remind and download and upgrade the application, and after the application is downloaded, software can be automatically installed. The 'hot update' does not need to update the audit through the software version of the application store, so many developers choose to modify the technical defects by using the method, and quick iteration is realized.

In a mobile terminal resource changing system, with the development of an App, a condition of directional release of changed resources occurs, and an application program provides two resources, namely a resource a and a resource B, wherein the resource a only provides a device with an App version of 7.1, and the other versions of the device use the resource B. Specific condition settings may also include operating system, model, brand, and the like.

In order to achieve the above purpose, there are two general solutions in the prior art, one is to perform directional pushing of resources from a server to a client, and the other is to actively request specific resource data from the client to the server. However, as for the first method, the problem of the server performing the selection of the terminal device is involved, that is, the server push is delivered according to the device ID, which devices to push are already determined at the time of the delivery, and if the conditions change before the device receives the resource, the device misses or erroneously receives the resource. For example, pushing the resource a to all devices with appVersion equal to 7.0, a version of a certain device X is 6.9 when the push task is generated, and therefore, the device X is not included in the scope of the circle selection by the server, and at this time, even if the device X is updated to 7.0 by the application market, the device X cannot receive the resource.

For the second method, since the update of the resource usually has a high requirement on timeliness, in order to obtain the update in time, the client needs to frequently and periodically access the server, and the server needs to open a corresponding thread to process the request, and when the loading amount of the client is very large, some large promotion activities and the like are very large in online amount, the number of threads that the server needs to open is also very large, the performance requirement on the server is very high, and the system is easily broken down. In addition, the possible update frequency of some resources may not be high, but in order to ensure the timeliness of the update, the client has to access the server at a high frequency, thereby causing a great deal of resource waste.

Therefore, how to improve the accuracy and timeliness of the directional hot update and avoid causing a great deal of resource waste becomes a technical problem to be solved by the technical personnel in the field.

Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments that can be derived from the embodiments given herein by a person of ordinary skill in the art are intended to be within the scope of the present disclosure.

In the embodiment of the present application, a control center server may be provided, and a user facing the control center server may be specifically a developer of an application program, or, in a case that one application program includes a plurality of modules, a developer of a specific module in the application program, and the like. When the application program or the module thereof needs to be updated, the configuration can be carried out through the control center server side. In addition, a check update server can be provided, specifically, information of the configured resources needing to be updated is exported, a check update client is provided for the application program client, the check update client can judge whether the resources needing to be updated exist through the check update server under the trigger of a preset event (for example, the application program client is started, or the operation mode is switched from a background to a foreground and the like) through interaction with the check update server, and if the resources exist, the resources can be downloaded and updated from a network storage address provided by the control center server.

Specific implementations are described in detail below.

Example one

First, the first embodiment provides an application hot-update system, and referring to fig. 1, the system may specifically include:

the control center server 101 is configured to create a resource space object for an application program, and provide an identifier and version information of the resource space object, where the resource space includes at least one resource object corresponding to the same update task, and the resource object corresponds to conditional description information;

the checking and updating server 102 is used for obtaining the available version information of the resource space object and the related network storage address information;

and the check updating client 103 is used for being introduced into the target application program client, acquiring the network storage address information of the resource space object of the available version by submitting a check updating request to the check updating server under the triggering of a target event, downloading the resource space object of the available version, and updating by using the resource object corresponding to the target condition description information matched with the local operating environment.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the control center server 101 may create a resource space object (which may be referred to as "pod" in this embodiment) for a specific application, may include one or more resource body objects (which may be referred to as "pea" in this embodiment) in the same resource space object, and each resource body object may correspond to respective condition description information.

In order to describe the conditions, expression design specifications can be provided in concrete implementation. For example, in a specific implementation, the specific expression design specification may include:

ANY is matched in ANY;

NONE is any mismatch;

conventional expression format: { key } [ { opr } { value } ];

concatenation of multiple expressions: value and type of the & key;

type enumeration of key:

os _ ver: system version, version type, e.g., os _ ver ═ 11.1;

did _ hash: deviceId hash and assign a template, take the template type, e.g., did _ hash 100_ 0-49;

m _ brand: brands, strings, e.g., m _ brand ═ apples;

m _ model: model, character string, e.g., M _ model ═ M16;

m _ vector: vendor strings, e.g., m _ vendor ═ meizu;

app _ ver: a client version type, e.g., app _ ver > 7.0.

In addition, specific relational expressions such as greater than, equal to, less than and the like can be designed.

Specifically, for example, in order to solve one bug existing in a module in a certain application, a developer of the certain module provides related resources that need to be updated, and the specifically used resources are different for different application versions, for example, a resource a needs to be used for updating above version 8.1, and a resource B needs to be used for updating below version 8.1. At this time, the application developer may create a specific pod through the control center server in the embodiment of the present application, and create two peas in the pod, where the corresponding condition description information is: client version type app _ ver > -8.1 and client version type app _ ver < 8.1.

The control center server can provide identification information for a specifically created pod, so that the pod can be subscribed in a specific application client. The specific pod created may also change, for example, for the case in the above example, it is found that after a period of time has elapsed, a new pea needs to be added to the pod, or a previous one needs to be modified, etc. Thus, version information can also be provided for the pod.

In addition, the same application client may include multiple modules, each of which may have its own resource to be updated, and thus, the same application may include multiple different pods. In a specific implementation, in order to facilitate update management on a specific pod, multiple pods associated with the same application may be packaged to generate a specific snapshot in an application unit. For example, as shown in fig. 3, an application client includes N modules, each module corresponds to one pod, and each pod includes a plurality of peas, and at this time, the N pods may be packaged into a snapshot corresponding to the application. In addition, version information of the snapshot can be provided, and when any pod associated with the same application program changes (a new pod is added, a new pea is added to an original pod, or the content or condition description of a certain pea in the original pod is modified, etc.), all the pods associated with the application program can be repackaged to generate a new snapshot, and the version of the snapshot can be updated.

Specifically, there may be a plurality of ways to store the snapshot corresponding to each application, for example, in one way, the snapshot corresponding to the specific application may be delivered to a CDN (content delivery network) for storage. The CDN is a content delivery network constructed on the network, and by means of edge servers deployed in various places, a user can obtain required content nearby through functional modules of a central platform, such as load balancing, content delivery, scheduling and the like, so that network congestion is reduced, and the access response speed and hit rate of the user are improved.

In the case where the control center server is provided, in order to facilitate a specific application client to obtain resource information required for specific update, an inspection update server 102 may be further provided, where the inspection update server is specifically configured to expose information, such as a version of a snapshot generated in the control center server and a network storage address, to the specific application client, so that the application client downloads and updates the snapshot. That is, the method and the device can be used to obtain version information of the latest snapshot corresponding to the application program and network storage address information corresponding to the latest snapshot. In a specific implementation, in order to enable the checking and updating server to obtain the information, as shown in fig. 4, a first SDK (software development kit) may be provided for the checking and updating server, where the first SDK is used to subscribe the snapshot information corresponding to the specific application program to the control center server, so that after the control center server generates a new snapshot each time, the version information of the latest snapshot and the network storage address information corresponding to the latest snapshot may be pushed to the checking and updating server for storage. During specific implementation, the check update server may use a probe technology to express the information, for example, the information may be expressed as < app identifier, snapshot version, snapshot url, check code > quadruple, which may play a role in saving storage space.

In order to enable the application client to obtain the resource information that needs to be updated specifically, and not to affect the underlying service, the embodiment of the present application may further provide the checking and updating client 103, where the checking and updating client 103 may be introduced into the target application client. That is to say, for an application program that performs resource configuration updating through the aforementioned control center server, the check updating client provided in the embodiment of the present application may be introduced into its client. The checking and updating client may specifically be configured to submit a checking and updating request to the checking and updating server under the trigger of a target event (for example, the application client is started, or the operation mode is switched from a background to a foreground, and the like), where the checking and updating request may carry a specific App identifier, version information of a snapshot used in the last updating, and the like. In this way, the check update server may determine whether the version of the current snapshot (e.g., the latest snapshot) corresponding to the App identifier is consistent with the version of the snapshot used in the last update, and if not, may return network storage address information corresponding to the available version (e.g., the latest version) to the check update client. The checking and updating client downloads the specific snapshot according to the specific network storage address, then analyzes the downloaded snapshot to determine the pod, the ped list included in each pod, the condition description information corresponding to each pea, and the like, so that the parameters in the current operating environment can be matched with the condition description information corresponding to each pea, and the pea which is successfully matched can be used for updating the current application program client.

In a specific implementation, the check update client 103 may be implemented in various forms, for example, in a specific manner, the check update client 103 may specifically exist in the form of an SDK. For the case that the application program includes a plurality of modules, as shown in fig. 4, the application program may specifically include a second SDK and a third SDK. The second SDK is used for being introduced into the main process of the target application program client, and when the target application program client is started, the second SDK may be started, and then, under the trigger of a target event, a check update request may be submitted to the check update server, and the request carries the application program identifier associated with the target application program client and snapshot version information used in the last update. For example, when the target application program client is started, a check update request is submitted to the check update server. Or, when the application program client is switched from a background operation mode to a foreground operation mode, submitting a check update request to the check update server, and the like.

The third SDK may be specifically configured to be introduced into a sub-process corresponding to each of the plurality of modules in the target application client, and may subscribe to the resource space object identifier from the second SDK. That is to say, the second SDK may subscribe to the identification of the pod created specifically at the control center server, and this subscription relationship information may be stored locally, and the subsequent second SDK may call back each module of the application client according to this correspondence, and provide the pod information corresponding to the subscription to the second SDK. For example, a certain application client includes a module a, a module B, and a module C, and can subscribe to a podA, a podB, and a podC corresponding to the application. It should be noted that, since the specific pod is created by the developer of the specific application module through the control center server, the developer may obtain the identification information of the specific pod, and further, by using the identification information of the pod, in the module code corresponding to the application client, the specific pod identification may be subscribed by using the third SDK. For example, if a developer of module A creates a podA, the podA can be subscribed to in the code of module A, and so on.

After the second SDK initiates a request to the check update server under the trigger of a specific event, because the request carries the identifier of the application program and the version information of the snapshot used in the last update, and the check update server records the version information of the currently available snapshot and the storage address information corresponding to each application program, if the available version of the snapshot is different from the snapshot version information used in the last update, the network storage address information corresponding to the snapshot is carried in the returned response message. That is, assuming that the check update server finds that the version of the latest snapshot of an application is 1.3, and the version of the snapshot used for the last update recorded in the request submitted by the second SDK is 1.2, it proves that the application needs to be updated, and therefore, the network storage address information corresponding to the snapshot of the available version can be returned in the returned response message.

After receiving the specific network storage address information, the second SDK may download and analyze the snapshot of the available version to obtain the resource space object list included therein. Then, since the subscription information of each module in the application program to the pod is recorded, the resource space object information can be provided to the third SDK corresponding to the target module in the application program by calling back the application program module subscribed to each resource space object. Accordingly, the third SDK may first determine that the version information of the currently received pod is an available version of the pod, and in addition, the third SDK may further record a pod version used in the last update, so that the available version of the pod may be compared with the pod version used in the last update. If two differences are found, the pod is proved to have been updated, so that the resource space object can be parsed to obtain the resource object list included therein and the respective corresponding condition description information. Then, it may be determined whether the current operating environment matches the condition description information corresponding to a certain pea, and if the current operating environment matches the condition description information of a certain pea successfully, the associated application module may be updated by using the pea.

In short, according to the embodiment of the present application, resources that need to be updated in a specific application program may be configured through the control center server, and may also be managed in a manner of a resource space object and a resource body object, and may provide identification information and version information for the resource space object, and configure respective condition description information for different resource body objects in the same resource space object. In addition, a checking and updating server can be provided for exporting the resource space object information in the specific control center server. Furthermore, it can also provide an update detection client for a specific application program client, through which a specific required resource space object can be subscribed, and under the trigger of a specific event, an update request can be sent to the check update server, the check update server determines whether the latest resource space object version is consistent with the resource space object version used by the current application program client in the last update, if not, the network storage address information of the latest resource space object can be returned, the check update client downloads the latest resource space object and parses the resource object and condition description information therein, and then, according to the matching result of the current operating environment and each resource object and condition description information, a specific available resource object is determined, and updating is carried out. That is to say, the application client may perform the check update request when needed, and may download all the resources corresponding to the multiple different condition descriptions in the same update task to the local, and perform the matching judgment on the specific condition descriptions at the application client, thereby improving the accuracy and timeliness of the directed hot update and avoiding the waste of a large amount of resources.
