Data transmission method and device based on sliding detection

The present invention relates to the field of network communication technologies, and in particular, to a data transmission method and apparatus based on sliding detection.

With the development of network technology, the Internet has penetrated into the hearts of a wide range of Internet users. In many Internet applications, information dissemination and sharing through message users has become an indispensable part of the daily work and leisure of Internet users. In the communication process based on the message client, a large number of messages (such as text information, picture information, audio/video information, etc.) usually need to be transmitted.

Weibo, or Microblog, is a system for information dissemination using the above-mentioned message client. It is an instant information sharing, dissemination and acquisition platform based on user relationships. Users can log in to the Weibo client through terminal devices such as mobile phones and computers to achieve information sharing.

Considering the immediacy of Weibo, mobile phones have naturally become one of the best carriers of Weibo. When a user views a microblog message using a mobile phone, it usually does some sliding operations. In this way, some Weibo messages that were originally outside the screen will slide into the screen.

In the Weibo system, messages are carried by a message cell. Typically, each Message Cell includes the message content, the name of the message publisher, and the avatar of the publisher. Multiple Message Cells form a list (TimeLine) in chronological order and are displayed on the phone screen.

When the user performs a screen slide operation, the Message Cell that was originally outside the screen will slide into the screen. For each Message Cell that enters the screen during the sliding process, the Weibo client downloads the message content corresponding to the Message Cell, the name of the publisher, and the avatar of the presenter.

When the user performs a continuous and fast sliding operation, a large number of Message Cells are swept from the outside of the screen to the screen and slide out of the screen again. In this way, the Weibo client needs to download the message content, the name and the avatar of the message corresponding to the Message Cell that has been on the screen. However, the user is not concerned with the Message Cells that have been on the screen during the continuous fast sliding process, but the Message Cells displayed on the screen when the sliding operation ends. In this way, a large amount of network resources are wasted in the downloading of the message content corresponding to the Message Cell and/or the download of the publisher's avatar in the sliding process, especially when the message content corresponding to the Message Cell contains a picture or sound/ When there is a large amount of data such as video.

For the mobile phone users who access the network according to the data flow charging method, the above-mentioned downloading process brings a large amount of data flow waste and a poor user experience to the user.

For the same reason, the same problem exists for computer users who use 3G and other wireless access networks.

In view of this, the present invention provides a data transmission method and apparatus based on sliding detection, thereby reducing the amount of network data flow and improving the user experience.

The data transmission method based on the sliding detection provided by the present invention includes: when the message cell list TimeLine is detected to scroll on the screen of the user terminal, the message client records the message cell Message Cell visible in the screen; the message client It is determined whether the Message Cell is still visible on the screen after a predetermined time; if so, the information corresponding to the Message Cell is downloaded from the message server.

The data transmission device based on the sliding detection includes: a detection module, a recording module, a determination module and a download module; wherein the detection module is configured to detect whether the TimeLine is scrolled on the screen of the user terminal; The module is configured to record the Message Cell visible in the screen when the detecting module detects that the TimeLine is scrolling on the screen of the user terminal; the determining module is configured to determine whether the Message Cell recorded by the recording module is still after the predetermined time. The download module is configured to download the data corresponding to the Message Cell from the message server when the judging module judges that the Message Cell is still visible on the screen after a predetermined time.

The data transmission method and apparatus based on the sliding detection provided by the present invention triggers downloading the data corresponding to the Message Cell only when the time that the Message Cell stays in the screen reaches a predetermined timing time. In this way, it is possible to avoid downloading the data corresponding to the Message Cell that slides into the screen and quickly slides out of the screen, thereby greatly reducing the amount of network data flow of the user and improving the user experience.

The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The core idea of the present invention is: when detecting that the message cell list (TimeLine) is scrolled on the screen of the user terminal, the message client records the message cell (Message Cell) visible in the screen; and determines that the Message Cell is scheduled. Whether it is still visible on the screen after the time; if so, download the data corresponding to the Message Cell from the message server. In this way, it is possible to avoid downloading the data corresponding to the Message Cell that slides into the screen and quickly slides out of the screen, thereby greatly reducing the amount of network data flow of the user and improving the user experience.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a data transmission method based on sliding detection according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes: Step 101: When detecting that the TimeLine is scrolling on the screen of the user terminal, the message client records the Message Cell visible in the screen.

Step 102: The message client determines whether the Message Cell is still visible on the screen after a predetermined time. If yes, go to step 103; otherwise, end the process.

Step 103: Download the data corresponding to the Message Cell from the message server.

The user terminal can be a device such as a mobile phone or a computer; the message client can be a microblog user; correspondingly, the message server can be a microblog server; the message corresponding to the message cell can be in the message content corresponding to the message cell. The included picture, or audio/video file, can also be the avatar of the message publisher corresponding to the Message Cell.

The following is a detailed description of the data transmission method based on the sliding detection provided by the present invention by taking the user's mobile phone to log in to the microblogging client and the information corresponding to the Message Cell as the avatar of the message.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a data transmission method based on sliding detection according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes the following steps: Step 201: The Weibo client detects whether the TimeLine scrolls on the mobile phone screen. If the TimeLine is detected to scroll on the mobile phone screen, step 202 is performed; otherwise, step 201 is repeated.

The control item provided by the system used by the mobile terminal is used as a carrier to realize the rolling detection of the TimeLine in the screen, and the connection between the TimeLine and the microblog user is achieved. Specifically, when the TimeLine starts to scroll, the system will trigger a rolling event of the control item to notify the microblogging client that when the scrolling stops, the system will notify the microblogging client by decelerating scrolling or stopping scrolling of the triggering control item.

Taking the iPhone as an example, TimeLine as a control item will use the scrollview control item provided by the ios system used by the iPhone to serve as a carrier. When the TimeLine scroll starts, the ios system will trigger the scrollviewDidscroll event to notify the microblog user that the scrollview starts scrolling. When the scrolling stops, the ios system will trigger the scrollviewDidEndDecelerating event to tell the microblog user that the scrollview stops scrolling. Thus, the Weibo client can know if the TimeLine is scrolling on the mobile phone screen.

It should be noted that, not limited to the iOS system used by the iphone and the iphone, TimeLine is used as a control item to inform the Weibo client TimeLine through the control item provided by the android system used by other mobile phones as a carrier. Whether to scroll on the phone screen.

Those skilled in the art can also select other methods to detect whether the TimeLine is scrolling on the mobile phone screen according to actual conditions. The present invention is not limited to a specific detection method.

In step 202, the Weibo client records the Message Cell visible on the mobile phone screen and starts a timer.

Still taking the iPhone as an example, when a Message Cell enters the screen, the ios system will trigger the cellForRowAtIndexPath event to notify the Weibo client. After receiving the notification, the Weibo client can determine that the Message Cell is visible on the mobile phone screen. At this point, the Weibo client records the identity of the Message Cell and starts the timer at the same time. When a Message Cell slides out of the screen, the iOS system also notifies the Weibo client. After receiving the notification, the Weibo client can determine that the Message Cell has slipped out of the screen.

In this step, as the TimeLine scrolls, there may be multiple Message Cells visible on the phone screen. Then, when each Message Cell enters the screen, the Weibo client records the identifier of the Message Cell and simultaneously starts the timer corresponding to the Message Cell.

For example, when TimeLine scrolls on the phone screen, Message Cell 1 first enters the screen. At this time, the microblog client records the identifier ID1 corresponding to the Message Cell 1, and starts the timer T1 corresponding to the Message Cell 1. Then, as the TimeLine scrolls, Message Cell 2 enters the screen. At this time, the microblog client records the ID2 corresponding to the Message Cell 2, and starts the timer T2 corresponding to the Message Cell 2, and so on.

The identifiers corresponding to the respective Message Cells visible on the screen can be stored in an array. For example, at a certain moment, the Message Cell visible on the screen includes Message Cell 1, Message Cell 2 and Message Cell 3. At this time, the contents of the array include ID1, ID2 and ID3. At another moment, as TimeLine scrolls, Message Cell 1 slides out of the screen and Message Cell 4 slides into the screen. At this time, the contents of the array include ID2, ID3 and ID4.

In this step, the duration of the timer can be set according to the actual situation. Preferably, it can be set to be between 0-1 seconds, in which case a better visual effect can be achieved.

In addition, the durations of the timers corresponding to the respective Message Cells may be the same or different.

Step 203: Display a preset avatar of the local storage area.

Specifically, the Weibo client can determine whether the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell is stored locally. If there is, the default avatar is the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell in the local storage area. At this time, the Weibo client displays the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell in the local storage area. If the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell is not stored locally, the microblog client can display the system preset avatar of the local storage area.

Step 204: The microblog user determines whether the timer corresponding to the Message Cell is expired. If yes, step 205 is performed; otherwise, step 204 is repeatedly performed.

If the microblogging client records multiple message cells in step 202 and starts multiple timers, in this step, the microblogging client determines whether the timer corresponding to each message cell expires.

In step 205, it is determined whether the Message Cell is still visible on the screen. If it is visible, go to step 206; otherwise, end the process.

Specifically, the Weibo client can determine whether the Message Cell is still visible in the screen by determining whether the array includes the identifier corresponding to the Message Cell.

For example, for the Message Cell 1, if the timing of the timer T1 corresponding to the Message Cell 1 is up, the Weibo client determines whether the ID1 corresponding to the Message Cell 1 is included in the array. If included, Message Cell 1 is still visible on the screen; otherwise, Message Cell 1 is not visible on the screen, ie it has been swiped out of the screen.

In step 206, the Weibo client updates the displayed avatar.

Specifically, if it is determined in step 203 that the local storage area has the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the message cell, the microblog user determines whether the download address of the avatar corresponding to the message cell is downloaded from the local storage area. The address is the same. If they are the same, the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell is not updated, and the process ends. If it is different, indicating that the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell has been updated, the Weibo client downloads the updated avatar from the Weibo server, and displays the updated avatar to replace the local storage area displayed in step 203. The message cell corresponds to the avatar of the publisher.

If it is determined in step 203 that the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell is not stored locally, the microblog user directly downloads the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell from the microblog server, and then displays the avatar of the download to replace the step. The default avatar of the system in 203.

It can be seen through the embodiment of the present invention that the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell is triggered only when the time that the Message Cell stays on the screen reaches a predetermined timing. In this way, it is possible to avoid downloading the avatar of the publisher corresponding to the Message Cell that slides to the screen and quickly slides out of the screen, thereby greatly reducing the amount of network data flow of the user.

In addition, in the present invention, the data corresponding to the Message Cell may also be a large data file such as a picture, an audio/video, and the like included in the message content corresponding to the Message Cell. FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a data transmission method based on sliding detection according to another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the mobile phone user is still logged into the microblog user terminal as an example. As shown in FIG. 3, the method includes steps 301-302 being the same as steps 201-202.

In step 303, the microblog user displays a preset picture of the local storage area.

Steps 304-305 are the same as steps 204-205.

Step 306: The microblogging client downloads a picture or audio/video file included in the message content corresponding to the Message Cell from the microblog server, and displays the downloaded picture or audio/video file on the mobile phone screen instead of displaying the step 303. Preset picture.

In this way, if the Message Cell quickly slides out of the screen, it can avoid downloading these large data files, thereby reducing the user's network data flow.
