Fig. 12 is a search result interface shown in some exemplary embodiments of the present application, which is specifically a search result interface displayed when there is no target food material matching the search term in the food material library. For example, fig. 12 may be an interface displayed after the user searches for "tiramisu" in the food material library interface in a case where "tiramisu" does not exist in the food material library. As shown in fig. 12, a custom food material addition control "+ add custom food material" is displayed in the search result interface. When the user operates the control, a custom food material adding interface is displayed, as shown in fig. 7.

In some embodiments, in response to the user's operation on the custom food material addition control displayed in the search interface, the food material management application firstly returns to the food material library interface when the custom category control is selected, then displays the custom food material addition box on the food material library interface when the custom category control is selected, and displays the search term input by the user in the input area corresponding to the food material name definition item in the custom food material addition box. The search terms input by the user represent the food materials which are not searched in the food material library by the user, namely the user-defined food materials which the user wants to add, so that the process that the user manually inputs the food material names can be saved by displaying the search terms in the input area corresponding to the food material name definition item, and the user experience is improved.

For example, when the user operates the custom food material addition control "+ add custom food material" in fig. 12, the user automatically returns to the food material library interface when the custom category control is selected as shown in fig. 6, and displays a custom food material addition box on the upper layer of the food material library interface, and displays "tiramisu" in the input area corresponding to the food material name definition item in the custom food material addition box, that is, as shown in fig. 13. Therefore, the user does not need to manually input the 'tiramisu', the user operation is saved, and the user experience is improved.

It should be noted that when there is no food material in the food material library that the user wants to add, a need for adding a custom food material is generated. Based on the foregoing embodiment, it can be seen that, under the condition that no target food material matched with the search term exists in the food material library, the user can trigger and display the custom food material adding interface by one key by setting the custom food material adding control in the search result interface, so that a series of operations of controlling and returning to the food material library interface corresponding to the "custom food material" tag control are avoided, a function of quickly entering the custom food material adding interface when no search result exists is realized, and the requirement of the user for adding the custom food material is quickly met. By displaying the search terms in the input area corresponding to the food material name definition item, the process that the user manually inputs the food material name can be saved, and therefore user experience is improved.

In specific implementation, a search listening service (mSearchListener) is arranged in an interface containing a search bar so as to listen to the search word input by the user in the search word input box and the operation of the search control through the search listening service. For example, a search listening service is set on the food material library interface. Under the condition of no search result, the food material management application responds to the operation of a user on a user-defined food material adding control in a search result interface, and a search word monitored by the search monitoring service is called back to a page parameter corresponding to the food material library interface through a call-back function (addaccustom food). The callback function is also used for switching the state corresponding to the 'user-defined food material' control in the food material library interface into a selected state so as to display the food material library interface when the 'user-defined food material' control is selected, controlling to pop up a user-defined food material adding box, and filling the callback search word in an input area corresponding to the food material name definition item.

In some embodiments, when a food material library interface is displayed or a search result interface containing food material icons of a target food material is displayed, a user can select a food material icon in the interface through a single-point or long-press operation, and when the user selects a certain food material icon, the food material icon is displayed in a selected state. The user can select a plurality of food material icons through multiple operations. The food material management application responds to the selection operation of the user on the food material icons, the display state of the food material icons selected by the user is updated to be the selected state, if the selection operation is the selection operation input by the user for the first time, a preview area is displayed at the position, which does not shield the food material icons, in the current interface, and the food material icons selected by the user are displayed in the preview area. And the food material management application responds to the input indication to finish the selection operation, and stores the food material information corresponding to the food material icon selected by the user in the local food material information set.

For example, when displaying the search result interface shown in fig. 11, the food management application updates the display state of the "apple" icon to the selected state in response to the user's selection operation of "apple", and displays a preview area 141 shown in fig. 14 on the lower side of the search result interface, in which the "apple" icon is displayed. As the user continues to select "cider vinegar," the "apple" icon will appear in the selected state, while the "cider vinegar" icon will also be displayed in the preview area 141. It can be seen that the preview area 141 also displays a "selected" control. After the user finishes selecting, the user clicks the selected control, the operation indicating that the selection is finished is input, and the food material management application responds to the operation, stores the food material information corresponding to the food material icon selected by the user in the local food material information set and marks the food material information as the putting-in state.
