An architecture to which the file editing method according to the embodiment of the present application is applied will be described below with reference to fig. 1.

As shown in fig. 1, the architecture 100 may include one or more of

terminal devices

101, 102, 103, a network 104, and a server 105. The network 104 serves as a medium for providing communication links between the

terminal devices

101, 102, 103 and the server 105. Network 104 may include various connection types, such as wired, wireless communication links, or fiber optic cables, to name a few. The

terminal devices

101, 102, 103 may be various electronic devices having a display screen, including but not limited to desktop computers, portable computers, smart phones, tablet computers, and the like. It should be understood that the number of terminal devices, networks, and servers in fig. 1 is merely illustrative. There may be any number of terminal devices, networks, and servers, as desired for implementation. For example, server 105 may be a server cluster comprised of multiple servers, or the like.

The file editing method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is generally executed by the

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103, and accordingly, the file editing apparatus is generally disposed in the

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103. However, it is easily understood by those skilled in the art that the file editing method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure may also be executed by the server 105, and accordingly, a file editing apparatus may also be disposed in the server 105, which is not particularly limited in the exemplary embodiment.

In the embodiment of the present invention, users logged in on the

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103 may be accessing a file in the server 105 at the same time, the

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103 may send edit information of the user logged in on the terminal device to the file to the server 105, respectively, and the server 105 may store or send the processed edit information to a terminal where another user accessing the file is located after processing the edit information.

For example, the file is a video file, a plurality of users can access the video file, the server 105 can store the video file, the

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103 where the plurality of users are located can access the video file in the server 105 through network connection, and the plurality of users can edit the video file at the same time. The plurality of

terminal devices

101, 102, 103 may send editing information to the server 105, the server 105 may process the editing information sent by one terminal and send the processed editing information to other terminals, for example, after the terminal device 101 edits the video file, the server 105 may send the editing information to the server 105, and the server 105 may process the editing information sent by the terminal device 101 and send the processed editing information to other

terminal devices

102, 103, thereby implementing data synchronization in the video file.

The plurality of

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103 may access the server 105 through installed clients, or may access the server 105 through a web portal, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

The file editing method is applied to a terminal, which may be one of the plurality of

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103, and the following description will take an example of a user currently logged in one terminal device. In the embodiment of the invention, a plurality of users can edit the same file at the same time, wherein for a certain terminal, the user who logs in on the terminal accesses a file, and the users who log in other terminals also access the file and edit the file area.

When any user accesses the file, the terminal can establish connection with the server. Specifically, the terminal may call a socket.io library to establish a socket channel with the server. The socket channel is used for full duplex communication with the server. The name socket.io of the socket.io library is simply explained below, in which the Chinese name of the socket in the name is socket, and the English name of io is all Input Output, which refers to Input and Output.

In one possible implementation, for a file, the server may store the correspondence of the socket communication handles of all users accessing the file to the file. For example, the server may store the socket communication handles of all users accessing the file in a HashMap object. The HashMap object typically stores data in the form of key-value pairs. Specifically, the HashMap object may use identification information of the file as a key (key), where the identification information is used to uniquely identify the file. For example, the Identification number (ID) of the file may be used as a key. When a user sends edit information to a server, the server may obtain socket communication handles of all users accessing the file according to identification information of the file, so as to process the edit information, and then send the processed edit information to all users through the obtained socket communication handles of all users.

In a specific embodiment, a user in a terminal device acquires a first file from a server, inputs an editing instruction for the first file, obtains a second file according to the first file and the editing instruction, before issuing the second file to the server, the terminal device needs to determine whether a third file can be acquired from the server, where the third file is a latest version of the first file stored in the server, and if the third file can be acquired from the server, generates an edited file according to the second file and the third file; and issuing the edited file to a server.

In a specific embodiment, after receiving a first file, a terminal device may copy the first file to obtain a copy of the first file, receive an editing instruction input by a user to the first file to obtain a second file, store an identification number of the copy of the first file, determine whether a file whose identification number is greater than the identification number of the first file can be obtained from a server according to the identification number of the copy of the first file, and determine that a third file can be obtained from the server if a file whose identification number is greater than the identification number of the first file can be obtained.

A specific flow of the file editing method is described below by using the embodiment shown in fig. 2, and referring to fig. 2, the file editing method may include the following steps:

step S210, receiving an editing instruction for a first file input by a user, and generating a second file according to the first file and the editing instruction;

step S220, before the second file is released to the server, determining whether a third file can be acquired from the server, wherein the third file is the latest version of the first file stored in the server;

step S230, if the third file can be acquired from the server, generating an edited file according to the second file and the third file;

step S240, issuing the edited file to the server.

These steps are described in detail below.

Step S210, receiving an editing instruction for a first file input by a user, and generating a second file according to the first file and the editing instruction.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first file is a target file edited by a user logged in the terminal device, and the first file may be an online shared file, or may be locally stored by a terminal where the user is located, but based on the sharing software, a terminal where other users are located may also edit the first file, or of course, may be locally stored by a terminal where other users are located, but based on the sharing software, a terminal where the user is located may also edit the first file.

The edit instruction may be generated by a user by triggering an input module of the terminal device, where the input module may be a touch display screen, a mouse, a keyboard, and the like, and is not limited in this respect.

Understandably, the user can input an editing instruction through a mouse, a keyboard and the like according to the requirement, and the processor can receive the input editing instruction and then execute corresponding operation according to the editing instruction. Wherein the editing instructions include, but are not limited to, a first instruction for table nesting, a second instruction for element grouping, a third instruction for loading a wait animation, a fourth instruction for container volume change, a fifth instruction for element fixing, a sixth instruction for element moving, a seventh instruction for element information change, an eighth instruction for element layout switching, and the like. For example, if the user needs to perform a table nesting operation on the web page, the first instruction may be input through a mouse, a keyboard, or the like.

The second file is a file obtained by performing editing operation on the first file, and when an editing instruction is received, the first file is subjected to editing operation to obtain the second file.

Step S220, before the second file is released to the server, determining whether a third file can be acquired from the server, where the third file is the latest version of the first file stored in the server.

The third file is the latest version of the first file stored in the server, and may be a file in which a user of another terminal device sends an edited file to the server, and the server may store the received file after receiving the file sent by the other terminal device, or broadcast the received file to a terminal where another user who is accessing the file is located.

In step S210, after the user edits the first file to obtain the second file, the terminal where the user is located may send the second file to the server, but before sending the second file, the terminal may first send an obtaining request of the latest version file to the server, and determine whether the latest version of the first file can be obtained from the server.

Step S230, if the third file can be acquired from the server, generating an edited file according to the second file and the third file.

In step S230, if the terminal device can acquire the third file from the server, it indicates that the first file edited by the user is not the latest file, and therefore the terminal device does not directly issue the second file edited in step S210 to the server, but generates an edited file from the acquired latest third file and second file.

Step S240, issuing the edited file to the server.

In this embodiment, a second file is generated by receiving an edit of a first file by a user, before the second file is released to a server, it is determined whether a third file stored in the server can be acquired from the server, where the third file is a latest version of the first file stored in the server, and if the third file can be acquired, an edited file is generated according to the second file and the third file, and the edited file is released to the server. Therefore, when multiple persons edit the file, the edited file does not need to be transmitted to the server for processing, complex transmitting logic is avoided, occupation of server resources is avoided, the latest version of the file is directly obtained from the server, the edited file is generated according to the latest version of the file and the second file, and the edited files respectively submitted when the multiple persons edit the file are not mutually covered.

In one embodiment, the determination of whether the third file can be acquired from the server in step S220 may be determined by calculating hash values of the first file and the third file and comparing the hash values.

In another embodiment, the step S220 of determining whether the third file can be retrieved from the server may also be determined directly by comparing the identification numbers of the first file and the third file, and as shown in fig. 3, the step of determining whether the third file can be retrieved from the server includes the following steps:

step S310, determining whether a file with an identification number larger than that of the first file can be acquired from the server or not according to the identification number of the first file;

step S320, if a file with an identification number greater than that of the first file can be acquired from the server, determining that the third file can be acquired from the server.

In step S310, the identification number refers to a number that can be used to identify the version of the file, and may be composed of characters such as letters, symbols, numbers, and the like. The method for determining whether the file with the identification number larger than the identification number of the first file can be obtained from the server by the terminal device sending a request to the server, wherein the request carries the identification number of the first file, or by comparing the identification numbers of the files locally at the terminal device after the files are obtained by the terminal device.

In step S320, after receiving the request, the server obtains a file with an identification number greater than that of the first file according to the received identification number of the first file, and then sends the file to the terminal device. And if the identification number of the acquired file is larger than the identification number of the first file, determining that a third file can be acquired from the server, wherein the third file is the latest version of the first file, and if only the file identification number equal to the identification number of the first file exists in the server and indicates that the first file is the latest version, determining that the third file cannot be acquired from the server.

In the above embodiment, the identification number of the first file may be obtained by copying the first file to obtain a copy of the first file, storing the identification number of the copy of the first file, and obtaining the identification number of the copy of the first file as the identification number of the first file, in this embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the file editing method includes:

s410, copying the first file to obtain a copy of the first file, and generating a second file according to the first file and the editing instruction;

step S420, storing the identification number of the copy of the first file, and determining the identification number of the first file according to the stored identification number of the copy of the first file;

step S430, determining whether a third file exists according to the identification number of the copy of the first file, wherein the identification number of the third file is greater than the identification number of the copy of the first file;

step S440, if a file with an identification number greater than that of the first file can be obtained from the server, determining that the third file can be obtained from the server;

step S450, generating an edited file according to the second file and the third file;

and step S460, publishing the edited file to the server.

In step S410, before receiving an edit instruction of a user for a first file, copying the first file and storing the copy in a local memory, where a copy is defined as a copy of the first file, and the copy of the first file is used to indicate that all edits of the first file by the user are modifications based on the version; one is defined as a first file for the user to edit, and the user's operations at the editor are based on the operations of the first file.

In step S420, after receiving the editing instruction from the user, the first file becomes the second file, and the copy of the first file is not modified by any editing of the user, so that the identification number of the copy of the first file can be used as the identification number of the first file.

In step S430, the determination of whether the third file exists in the server is performed by sending the identification number of the copy of the first file to the server, and the server determines whether a file larger than the identification number of the copy of the first file exists according to the identification number of the copy of the first file.

In step S440, after receiving the request sent by the terminal device to determine whether the third file exists, the server obtains the file with the identification number greater than the identification number of the copy of the first file according to the received identification number of the copy of the first file, and then sends the file to the terminal device. And if the identification number of the acquired file is larger than the identification number of the copy of the first file, determining that a third file can be acquired from the server, wherein the third file is the latest version of the first file, and if only the file identification number equal to the identification number of the copy of the first file exists in the server and indicates that the first file is the latest version, determining that the third file cannot be acquired from the server.

Steps S450-460 are the same as steps S230-240 in FIG. 2, and therefore are not described herein again.

There are various embodiments for generating the edited file according to the second file and the third file in step S230.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, step S230 specifically includes:

step S2301, respectively acquiring a field included in the second file and a field included in the third file;

step S2302, combining the fields included in the second file and the fields included in the third file to generate an edited file.

In step S2301, the second file and the third file are data sets with the same attribute characteristics stored in a file system, where the file system refers to a system that stores data in a mass storage in a file form, and may include various existing database systems and other file systems. The second file and the third file each include a plurality of fields, and the fields refer to data sets representing a specific attribute of the files.

In step S2302, merging refers to an operation of converting at least two independent information into one independent information by reversible combination and/or transformation means. Therefore, the fields contained in the second file and the fields contained in the third file are combined to obtain an edited file.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 6, step S2302 specifically includes:

step S23021, merging the field identifications contained in the second file and the field identifications contained in the third file to obtain a field identification set;

step S23022, obtaining a field value corresponding to each field identifier in the field identifier set according to a field value included in the second file and a field value included in the third file;

step S23023, obtaining an edited file according to the field identifier set and the field values corresponding to the field identifiers in the field identifier set.

In step S23021, in this embodiment of the present invention, each field includes a field identifier and a field value, where the field identifier is used to identify an attribute represented by the field, and the field value is used to store specific information of the attribute represented by the field. And performing union on the field identification contained in the second file and the field identification contained in the third file to obtain a field identification set.

Step S23022, obtaining a field value corresponding to each field identifier in the field identifier set according to the field value included in the second file and the field value included in the third file.

And for each field identification in the field identification set, acquiring a field value corresponding to the field identification according to the field value contained in the second file and the field value contained in the third file.

In a specific embodiment, step S23022 specifically includes:

In this embodiment, if there is a first type field identifier in the field identifier set, the first type field identifier has a corresponding field value in the second file, but there is no corresponding field value in the third file, the field value of the first type field identifier is set to the corresponding field value in the second file.

And if the second type field identification exists in the field identification set, the second type field identification exists in the third file, but the corresponding field value does not exist in the second file, setting the field value of the first type field identification as the corresponding field value in the third file.

If the third type field identification exists in the field identification set, the third type field identification simultaneously has corresponding field values in the second file and the third file, but the corresponding field values are different, the field value of the third type field identification is set as the corresponding field value in the second file.

As described above, a plurality of terminal devices may send editing information to a server, the server may process the editing information sent by one terminal and send the processed editing information to another terminal, and after a user acquires a first file from the server, before inputting an editing instruction, if a file forwarded by another terminal through the server is received, the first file needs to be updated.

In this embodiment, the file editing method further includes:

before receiving an editing instruction of a first file input by a user, if a fourth file sent by a server is received, obtaining an updated first file according to the fourth file and the first file, wherein the fourth file is an updated version of the first file.

In this step, the fourth file is a file that is forwarded to the terminal device by the server after the first file is edited by the other terminal device by the other user, and the fourth file is an updated version of the first file. In an embodiment, the method for determining whether the fourth file is an updated version of the first file may adopt an identification number comparison method, if the identification number of the received file is greater than the identification number of the first file, the file is determined to be the fourth file, and the updated first file is obtained according to the fourth file and the first file; and if the identification number of the received file is equal to the identification number of the first file, determining that the file is not the fourth file, and directly taking the first file as the latest version of file.

In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, obtaining the updated first file according to the fourth file and the first file includes:

step S740, obtaining an updated first file according to the field identification set and the field values corresponding to the field identifications in the field identification set.

Step S710 is similar to step S2301 in fig. 5, and therefore will not be described again, and step S720 is similar to step S23021 in fig. 6, and therefore will not be described again.

In step S730, the manner of obtaining the field value corresponding to each field identifier in the field identifier set is obtained according to the field value included in the first file and the field value included in the fourth file.

In a specific embodiment, step S730 includes:

for a first type field identifier which is contained in the field identifier set and has a corresponding field value in the first file and has no corresponding field value in the fourth file, setting the field value of the first type field identifier as the corresponding field value in the first file;

for a second type field identifier which is contained in the field identifier set and has a corresponding field value in the fourth file and has no corresponding field value in the first file, setting the field value of the second type field identifier as the corresponding field value in the fourth file;

and for a third type field identifier which is contained in the field identifier set, has corresponding field values in the first file and the fourth file at the same time and has different corresponding field values, setting the field value of the third type field identifier as the field value corresponding to the fourth file.

In this embodiment, if a third type field identifier, which includes corresponding field values in the first file and the fourth file at the same time and has different corresponding field values, is included in the field identifier set, it indicates that the first file is edited by other user terminals, and therefore the first file is not the latest file, and the field value of the third type field identifier needs to be set as the field value corresponding to the fourth file, so as to obtain the updated first file.

In one embodiment, if a fourth file is received before an edit instruction for a first file input by a user is received, and an updated first file is obtained according to the fourth file and the first file, the receiving an edit instruction for the first file input by the user, and generating a second file according to the first file and the edit instruction includes:

In an application scene of an interactive video, the video terminal 101 initiates a connection to the video processing server 105, and after the video terminal 101 and the video processing server 105 are successfully connected, in step S810, the video terminal 101 acquires a first video file. In step S820, the video terminal 101 receives an editing instruction input to the first video file by the user, and obtains a second video file according to the editing instruction and the first video file. Before the video terminal 101 transmits the second video file to the video processing server 105, the video terminal 101 transmits a request to the server, and in step S830, the video terminal 101 determines whether the third file, which is the latest version of the first file stored in the video processing server 105, can be acquired from the video processing server 105. In step S840, if the video terminal 101 determines that the third video file exists in the video processing server 105, the third video file is obtained from the video processing server 105, and the second video file and the third video file are merged to obtain an edited file. Finally, the video terminal 101 issues the edited video file to the video processing server.
