Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of RPA, and particularly relates to a quick derivation and assignment method and a quick derivation and assignment system for RPA component variables based on a shear plate.
Background
The RPA (Robotic Process Automation, robot process automation) technology is a process automation technology, and can design and configure a business operation process capable of being automatically executed through a process editor provided by RPA software, package the business operation process into a form of a software robot or a virtual robot, deploy the form to a production environment and a business system for execution, simulate a series of operations of a person on a computer, and have three core functions of process discovery, process design and process execution. First, an automation flow is discovered, then automation steps are designed according to the flow, and finally the RPA system executes the automation flows.
RPA designer, a tool or software application within the RPA technology field that is dedicated to visual process design, is used to create, design, and edit RPA processes and tasks. It provides visual interfaces and functions that enable a user to graphically define and configure the execution logic and steps of an automation task.
RPA (Robotic Process Automation) flow refers to a series of steps that automatically perform specific tasks and operations with a robot, typically by configuration and assembly of components by a user within an RPA designer.
RPA (Robotic Process Automation) are basic elements and functional modules that constitute the RPA flow. These components may be created, configured, and combined by the RPA designer for enabling execution of automated tasks.
However, in the RPA process development, a user often needs to perform assignment operation on a large number of variables, and the current method of assigning input variables is to operate a graphical interface of an RPA tool, manually fill in variable names and values into global variables, and then reference the variables in a process component or directly fill in the variables in the process component.
The above approach has the following disadvantages:
1. operating a large number of assignments within the graphical interface (RPA designer) of the RPA tool is inefficient;
2. variable data is not easy to multiplex;
3. variable data is bound with the flow, so that the variable data is not easy to migrate;
when a user develops a process with a large number of assignment operations or needs to reuse variable data, these disadvantages affect the efficiency of the user developing RPA process, for example, when the version of the RPA tool is incompatible in the RPA process, the developed process cannot be directly reused, the user is required to assign the variables again, and this repeated operation wastes a large amount of time
Therefore, it is very important to design a method and a system for quickly deriving and assigning variables of RPA components based on a shear plate, which can reduce the operation of assigning values by a user through a graphical interface, further improve the operation efficiency of assigning values by a large amount of users, and solve the problems of difficult multiplexing and difficult migration of variable data.

Fig. 3 illustrates the process of performing flow variable quick assignment by a user operating the RPA designer after introducing the clipboard variable assignment function into the RPA designer. Fig. 4 and 5 illustrate the process of a user operating the RPA designer to obtain RPA clipboard variable configuration text after introducing the export clipboard variable function into the RPA designer. The following is a description of embodiments of the present invention, and details of how the methods and systems of the present invention are combined with RPA software, by means of fig. 3, 4 and 5:
RPA designer shear plate variable assignment flow:
before the variable assignment flow process of the RPA designer shear plate is realized, the preconditions are added, and the preconditions comprise:
realizing a shear plate content identification and verification method and an RPA flow variable automatic assignment method in an RPA designer application so as to further realize an RPA designer shear plate variable assignment flow;
the clipboard content identification verification method implements logic and combines with the RPA designer application.
Calls to the clipboard content identification verification method are added at the open flow function logic within the RPA designer application.
The implementation logic of the shear plate content identification and verification method is as follows:
1. acquiring text content stored in a current shear plate of a user operating system by calling a related interface of a system bottom layer shear plate; the text content exemplified in this embodiment is as follows:
/------rpa-variant------/
{ "BrowservType": "360", "logInfo": "test log", "tips": [ { "name": "title" }, { "name": "url" } ] }
browserType, logInfo, props in the text is the variable name, 360, test log, [ { "name": "title" }, { "name": "url" } ] is the variable value.
2. Character format matching is carried out on the text content, if the text check rule of the RPA shear plate variable configuration is met, a designer carries out popup to prompt a user whether to carry out quick assignment or not; if the user clicks yes, the text content passing through the check rule is used as an entry to be transmitted to the RPA flow variable automatic assignment method.
Furthermore, the automatic assignment method of the RPA flow variable realizes logic and an application combination mode with the RPA designer, and is specifically as follows:
when the user clicks to confirm to carry out quick assignment, the RPA flow variable automatic assignment method is continuously called, the { "brown Type": "360", "logInfo": "test log", "tips": [ { "name": title "}, {" name ": url" } ] } json data content starting from the second row in the input text content is taken out, all components in the RPA flow opened by the current user are traversed circularly, the input parameter name of the component is obtained, the variable name is compared with the variable_name value in the json data, and if the variable name is the same, the variable value of the component is replaced with the value (namely, the variable value 360, the test log, [ { "name": title "}, {" name ": url" }) corresponding to the variable_name.
In summary, in the RPA designer shear plate variable assignment flow shown in fig. 3, regarding a portion of the RPA designer background, a description of the RPA designer shear plate variable assignment flow according to the present invention after adding a shear plate content identification verification method and an RPA flow variable automatic assignment method in the RPA designer application is actually provided.
The RPA designer shear plate variable assignment flow shown in fig. 3 is specifically as follows:
and 1, the RPA designer user obtains the RPA clipboard variable configuration text by obtaining the RPA clipboard variable configuration text flow.
RPA designer user manually copies RPA clipboard variable configuration text to the clipboard using ctrl+c.
And 3, opening the RPA designer application by the RPA designer user, opening the RPA flow needing to be operated, and entering a flow editing page.
4. Step 3 triggers the logic of the method for identifying and checking the contents of the clipboard (step 4-step 8 is the logic of the method for identifying and checking the contents of the clipboard, wherein the specific transformation method in the RPA designer refers to the description of the logic for identifying and checking the contents of the clipboard and the mode part combined with the application of the RPA designer in the precondition description of the variable assignment flow of the clipboard of the RPA designer), and the interior of the RPA designer acquires the text contents stored in the current clipboard of the user operating system by calling the related interface of the clipboard of the bottom layer of the system.
5. Executing the first step of configuring text check rules by the RPA clipboard variable, and identifying whether the first line in the text content acquired in the step 4 is the identification text (for example/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -, - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -, - - -RPA-variable- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -track); if yes, go on to step 6, otherwise go to step 15.
6. Judging whether the second line in the text content obtained in the step 4 is object data in json format; if yes, go to step 7, otherwise, go to step 15.
The UI interface of the RPA designer pops up a popup window to prompt a user whether to carry out quick assignment or not; if the user clicks yes, go on to step 8, if the user clicks otherwise, go to step 15.
8. Taking the RPA shear plate variable configuration text (namely text content acquired in the step 4) as an input call RPA flow variable assignment interface (step 9-step 13 is related logic of the RPA flow variable assignment interface, wherein the specific transformation method in the RPA designer refers to the logic for realizing the automatic assignment method of the RPA flow variable and partial content in the application combination mode of the RPA designer in the precondition description of the RPA designer shear plate variable assignment flow
The rpa designer application obtains an array of components storing all components in the current user-opened flow, creates a pointer to the first component in the array.
10. All the entry information of the component pointed by the pointer is obtained (the component in this embodiment is essentially a string of the python method, and the entry of the python method is determined to be a variable and then is named as a variable, and is skipped if the variable is not the variable).
11. Judging whether the variable name (namely, the key name in the key value pair) in the json object at the beginning of the second line in the RPA clipboard variable configuration text (namely, the text content acquired in the step 4) has the same parameter entering information in the step 10, if so, taking out the corresponding value in the json object, and covering the value in the component (namely, replacing the parameter entering variable in the component with the corresponding variable value in the json object, and if the variable value attribute in the json object is an empty character string, skipping).
12. Judging whether the current pointer points to the last component in the flow component array, if so, continuing to execute the step 13; if not, continuing to execute the step 14;
13. and saving the component data result in the modified component array to the flow, and executing step 15.
14. The pointer is moved to the next component in the flow array, step 10 is performed.
15. The flow ends.
Secondly, acquiring an RPA shear plate variable configuration text flow:
before the RPA shear plate variable configuration text flow is obtained, adding preconditions, wherein the preconditions comprise:
and when an RPA process variable query interface is realized in the RPA designer application, an interactive button of deriving a shear-plate variable is added in a UI interactive page of the RPA designer after the RPA process is opened, so that a user clicks the button of deriving the shear-plate variable to obtain the RPA shear-plate variable configuration text of the current RPA process.
The RPA flow variable inquiry interface is realized by combining logic and an RPA designer application.
And adding an interactive button 'export clipboard variable' in a UI interactive page of the RPA designer after opening the RPA flow, and calling an RPA flow variable query interface in the RPA designer application after clicking the button by a user.
The detailed logic of the RPA flow variable query interface is as follows: firstly, all component information in the current flow is acquired, variable names and variable values of all component variables are taken out, the variable with repeated names is removed, then the variable names are used as keys, the variable values are used as values, the values are packaged into json object formats { variant_name1: value1, variant_name2: value2,. The main..hereof is converted into json character strings, and identification texts (such as/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -, rpa-variant- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -, and line-change characters) are inserted into the heads of the character strings, and the character strings are returned as "clipboard variable configuration texts".
The character string finally obtained is specifically as follows:
/------rpa-variant------/
{ "BrowservType": "360", "logInfo": "test log", "tips": [ { "name": "title" }, { "name": "url" } ] }
browserType, logInfo, props in the text is the variable name, 360, test log, [ { "name": "title" }, { "name": "url" } ] is the variable value.
The text content is not changed in the process of realizing the invention, is in a fixed format, is generated according to the format when being generated, is checked according to the format when being analyzed, and the data read from the second line is analyzed as json character strings.
In summary, the contents shown in fig. 4 and fig. 5 are the processes of obtaining the RPA clipboard variable configuration text by clicking the "export clipboard variable" after adding the "export clipboard variable" interactive button and implementing the RPA process variable query interface in the RPA designer application, which is different in that fig. 4 describes the logic inside the RPA designer application, and fig. 5 is used for indicating the "clipboard configuration text" as plain text content, and supporting the characteristic of manual modification of the user. The user can copy the text content obtained in the method of fig. 5 (or manually write out the variable configuration text of the RPA clipboard according to the rule) into any text editor, manually modify the change value, and copy the change value to the clipboard again after modification.
The RPA user shown in fig. 4 obtains the RPA clipboard variable configuration text process through the existing flow, which is specifically as follows:
the RPA designer user opens the RPA designer application.
2. And opening the RPA flow needing to be operated by the user, and entering a flow editing page.
3. Clicking on the "export clipboard variable" button within the flow edit page of the RPA designer (the method implemented in connection with the RPA designer application refers to the premise description of obtaining RPA clipboard variable configuration text flow).
And 4, triggering the RPA flow variable query interface calling logic by the RPA designer in the background, wherein the steps 5 to 6 are the RPA flow variable query interface logic.
5. Firstly, acquiring all component information in the current flow, taking out variable names and variable values of all component variables, removing the variables with repeated names, then taking the variable names as keys, and encapsulating the variable values as key value pairs of values (if the variable values are not replaced by empty character strings) into json object formats { variant_name1: value1, variant_name2: value2, & gt.
6. The character string head obtained in step 5 is inserted with the identification text/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -, and a line feed, and this character string is returned as the "clipboard variable configuration text" - -.
The RPA designer background calls a relevant dependency library of a shear plate of the system, and copies text contents returned by the variable query interface of the RPA flow in the step 6 into the shear plate
8. The user can obtain "clipboard variable configuration text" through ctrl+v.
The process of obtaining the variable configuration text of the RPA shear plate by the RPA user through the new flow shown in FIG. 5 is specifically as follows:
the RPA designer user opens the RPA designer application.
2. And creating an RPA flow needing to be operated, entering a flow editing page, and configuring an RPA flow component and a variable name.
3. Click the "export clipboard variable" button within the flow edit page of the RPA designer.
4. The "clipboard variable configuration text" is obtained (the specific logic principle is the same as steps 4 to 8 in the flow of fig. 4).
5. The user copies the "clipboard variable configuration text" into any text editor using ctrl+v.
6. The user manually modifies the variable value attribute in the json string.
7. Finally, a new 'clipboard variable configuration text' is obtained.
The invention provides a method and a system for realizing quick assignment and export of RPA component variables through a shear plate.
The innovation points of the invention are as follows:
1. the invention provides a new method for assigning variables of RPA flow components in batches, which is different from the conventional mode of assigning variables in a click graphic interface and can improve the RPA flow development efficiency of RPA users;
