detailed description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts are within the scope of the present invention.

First embodiment

This embodiment provides an upgrade package delivery method, which is implemented by a server. FIG. 1 is a flowchart of the method. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the following processing:

Step 101: Obtain the remaining storage space of the terminal.

In the step 101, before the terminal device performs the upgrade, the server first pushes a message to the terminal, where the message is a code for inquiring information about the remaining space of the terminal device and/or the system version number, and the terminal device receives the message. Feed back information about its storage space to the server. This process is automatically performed in the background. As long as there is a network connection, the server can automatically send query messages. The user does not need to perform any operations, and does not see any interaction process. Sending messages consumes almost no data traffic.

Step 102: Determine a policy for sending an upgrade package to the terminal according to the remaining storage space.

In this embodiment, the upgrade package may be configured by a plurality of sub-packets. The policy of determining that the upgrade package is sent to the terminal according to the remaining storage space may include: the value of the storage space required for the remaining storage space being greater than the upgrade package exceeds the second value. At the threshold, determining to send all the sub-packets of the upgrade package to the terminal at one time; determining that each sub-package of the upgrade package is combined when the remaining storage space is greater than the value of the storage space required for the upgrade package exceeds the third threshold and is less than the second threshold. , obtaining multiple combined packages, and sending multiple combined packets to the terminal multiple times; the remaining storage space is larger than the required storage package When the value of the storage space exceeds the fourth threshold and is less than the third threshold, it is determined that each sub-packet of the upgrade package is sequentially sent to the terminal; when the remaining storage space is less than the fourth threshold, the upgrade package is not sent to the terminal, and the remaining storage space is larger than After the fourth threshold, the policy for sending the upgrade package to the terminal is determined according to the remaining storage space; wherein, the first threshold>the second threshold>the third threshold>the fourth threshold.

In this embodiment, the upgrade package is divided into several modules when the upgrade package is created, and each module can be upgraded separately, or combined and upgraded by several modules, or upgraded as a whole, or different modules can be exchanged. To upgrade, each module is upgraded in different time and space, depending on how much content is modified. The technology for making upgrade packages can be done with tools that make differential packages.

The server can download the upgrade package into several stages according to the state of the storage space of the terminal. Before the server upgrades, the current version number of the terminal can be obtained while the information about the remaining storage space of the terminal is obtained, and then the corresponding difference is sent according to the version number. Upgrade package.

Step 103: Send an upgrade package to the terminal according to the policy.

In this embodiment, the upgrade package may be a system upgrade package of the terminal, and based on this,

Before sending the upgrade package to the terminal according to the determined policy, the server also needs to know the version number of the system of the terminal. Based on this, the server sends the upgrade package corresponding to the version number to the terminal.

In this embodiment, before the remaining storage space of the terminal is known, the upgrade package may be specifically configured to generate a plurality of sub-packets according to the division of the functional modules.

After downloading the upgrade package, the terminal can perform the segmented update download of the differential package. If the server receives enough power from the terminal, the user will be prompted to install it before installation. After the agreement is made, it will be installed when it is idle (when the user does not use it after 0:00 in the evening). The specific installation methods can include the following Processing: (1) One-time installation in the idle time after the entire upgrade package is completed.

(2), the downloaded upgrade package, according to the remaining power and idle time of the terminal for segmented installation or one-time installation, will immediately delete the installed package after the installation is completed, release the space and then download the next paragraph and installation.

(3), download the packages in turn, install them in turn, select the package at the current stage after the installation is completed, and then download and install the next paragraph.

When installing the upgrade package in a segmented manner, each package completes a package and returns a label of the package to the server. The server then sends an identifier to the device to identify which segment of the differential package has been downloaded and installed, and which segment of the differential package No downloads, read this logo the next time you download, and download other packages that have not been downloaded. After each download of a segmented package, the installation is completed. After the completion, the downloaded upgrade package is deleted, and then the download of the next upgrade package is continued.

After the installation of the upgrade package is complete, all downloaded files are deleted, and the device is freed to restart the device. The device is not restarted during the segmented upgrade. After all the segment upgrade packages are installed, the device is restarted.

Second embodiment

The scenario of the application of this embodiment may be: when a user stores a large amount of photos and software in a terminal (for example, a mobile phone, a tablet, etc.), the remaining space is insufficient, below 500 M, and the user does not know what to clean up. At this time, the system prompts to upgrade. The method provided in this embodiment can automatically help the user to clear the redundant space of the mobile phone, and can also download and install the upgrade package in the idle period.

This embodiment is based on the foregoing first embodiment, and provides another upgrade package delivery method. The method is different from the method provided by the first embodiment in that the method knows the remaining storage space of the terminal. In addition, the storage space of the terminal is automatically cleaned. The method further includes: Steps 101 to 103 described in the foregoing first embodiment, the method further includes:

After the remaining storage space of the terminal is obtained, if the remaining storage space is smaller than the first preset value, the automatic cleanup of the redundant space package is sent to the terminal, so that the redundant space package is automatically cleaned to clean the storage space of the terminal. Specifically, the server determines, according to the stored storage status information of the terminal, if the remaining storage space reaches a threshold that needs to automatically clear the redundant space (that is, the first preset value), then the terminal device performs automatic redundant space cleaning; If this threshold is not reached, no redundant space cleanup is performed.

The specific details of the first preset value setting may be: when the remaining space of the terminal is larger than the size of the entire upgrade package, automatic cleaning is not performed; when the remaining space of the terminal is smaller than the size of the entire upgrade package, the redundant space is automatically cleared.

The mechanism for automatically clearing the redundant space is to set a packet for automatically clearing the redundant space on the server side. When the remaining space reaches the first preset value, the packet of the cleanup space is not sent. If the remaining space does not reach the threshold, Then, the server first sends the packet that automatically cleans up the redundant space, so that the packet clears the terminal redundant space. This cleaned package is similar to a software that automatically cleans up garbage. The package is small and hardly occupies the space of the mobile phone. The server first sends out the cleanup space package, and the terminal automatically cleans up the terminal redundant space after the terminal download is completed. This process does not send any request and confirmation to the user, cleans up the redundant space of the terminal, and defragments the fragmented space. The whole process is automatically performed in the background. The user does not need to perform any operation, and silently clears the redundant information in the terminal in the background. For example, images, caching of various applications, browser caching, and defragmentation of files, etc., compressing files increases the space utilization of mobile phones, improves the speed and efficiency of mobile phones, and shuts down unnecessary processes of the system without affecting user usage. And the package of the cleanup space is kept in the terminal from the download of the upgrade package until the upgrade package is completely installed, so as to ensure that the junk files of the device can be cleaned and freed at any time during the entire installation process. During the download process of the upgrade package, the user is no longer prompted to have insufficient storage space, and some space and other messages should be deleted to avoid making the user make difficult choices. This process is only done in the background when it is idle (when the user is not using it after 0:00 pm), no It will affect the normal use of the user, and has no effect on the system files of the mobile phone and the operation of each application.

Preferably, the upgrade package involved in the embodiment may also include multiple sub-packets. Based on this, in this embodiment, the policy for sending an upgrade package to the terminal according to the remaining storage space includes:

Determining, according to the detected remaining storage space, all the sub-packets of the upgrade package are sent to the terminal at one time, or sending all sub-packets of the upgrade package to the terminal in multiple times;

When the upgrade package is sent to the terminal multiple times, each time the terminal completes the download of the sub-package, the remaining storage space of the terminal is obtained, and when the remaining storage space of the terminal exceeds the first threshold, the automatic clearing of the redundant space packet is notified to the terminal. The storage space is cleaned up.

As shown in FIG. 2, this embodiment further describes the method of downloading the upgrade package in a segmented manner by using an example of a segmented download upgrade package (in this example, each sub-package has no differential upgrade package):

(1) If the remaining storage space is 1G larger than the size of the entire upgrade package, which is much larger than the upgrade package size, download the entire upgrade package at one time.

(2) If the remaining storage space is 500M-1G larger than the size of the upgrade package, the segmented download can be freely combined. The server performs two differential upgrade packages according to the power of the terminal and the size of the differential upgrade package of the module. A differential upgrade package is combined to download the upgrade package.

(3) If the remaining storage space is larger than the size of the upgrade package by 100M-500M, perform a segmented download. After cleaning the storage space, download the files from the largest to the smallest according to the difference size of the compiled modules.

(4) If the remaining storage space of the terminal is less than 100M after the space is cleaned, the upgrade package will not be downloaded temporarily, and the upgrade package will be downloaded after waiting for the storage space to meet the upgrade requirements.

As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, after downloading the upgrade package and installing the upgrade package, The method of the subsequent processing is the same as the method described in the first embodiment above, and details are not described herein again.

The segmented download upgrade package mainly solves the problem that the upgrade package is too large, and the space occupied by the installation is too large after the entire upgrade package is completed and the entire upgrade process takes too long and consumes too much power.

The server downloads the upgrade package in a segmented manner according to the returned storage space. During the entire process of downloading the upgrade package, the package for cleaning the space is always in the terminal. The remaining space can be detected before each download of the upgrade package. If the threshold is reached, Clean up in the background. There is no limit to the interval for downloading each segment upgrade package. You can download another segment after downloading the installation. You can also download and install this segment. After another few hours or days, download another package. This process is passed. Triggered when the user authorizes the license. And the one-time download package is the smallest, and the sum of the segmented download upgrade packages will be larger than the one-time download package size. The advantage of segmented downloads is that each space is small, consumes less power, takes less time, and uses less memory and storage space.

Mainly in the upgrade package to add a smart cleaning device redundant space package, mainly used to automatically clean up some of the terminal's cache and empty folders and other redundant space before downloading the upgrade package. Since the current software generally judges that the terminal has insufficient storage space, it suspends the process or reminds the user to clean up the space, but the user often does not know which content to clear or clear the space after scanning the tool. The upgrade package function of the redundant space of the smart cleaning device of the present invention may not need other tools to scan which content should be cleaned or let the user select it, but at the beginning of the download, the background intelligently helps the user to clean up the device. The cache file enhances the available space and does not affect the user's use.

The upgrade package can be downloaded in segments and installed in segments. The upgrade package can be downloaded in stages when downloading. Different from the breakpoint transmission, the present invention can download a part of the upgrade package and then install a part of the upgrade package, and then delete the package. The installed upgrade package can be used when the network is continuous and the space is sufficient. The secondary download completes the installation. When the network environment is not continuous or the space is insufficient, you can download a part according to the space or network environment to install. After the installation completes this part of the update, delete the downloaded upgrade package and wait for the next network environment or space. Continue to download and install in sections. This can improve the efficiency of the update, and install the segmentation first when the network is interrupted, so that this part of the upgrade package does not occupy the device space, and the space requirements and power requirements are reduced, the total installation time is unchanged, but the segmentation is installed. It can be installed in a small amount of time each time it is idle, without taking up a whole period of time to update the system. Fragmented installation improves installation efficiency and saves power.

On the one hand, the redundant space in the device can be automatically cleaned on the one hand, and the storage space requirement and the power requirement required in the upgrade process can be reduced on the one hand, and the upgrade efficiency is improved.

In this embodiment, the segmented upgrade and the installation and upgrade package have almost no requirements on the power of the terminal, and the terminal can be used normally. The installation process takes a relatively short time. After the upgrade package is downloaded, the upgrade package is installed in sections. You only need to restart the terminal once after the installation. In the existing terminal upgrade mode, when the terminal has insufficient storage space. The existing upgrade method prompts the user to delete some files and obtain some storage space before downloading the upgrade package. The invention can intelligently clean the redundant space of the device, and the segmentation upgrade has low space requirements and does not occupy. There is a lot of space in the mobile phone. Some parts of the upgrade are downloaded, and then the part is deleted. The space is small and the upgrade efficiency is high. The method provided in this embodiment mainly reduces the junk files in the device, and does not require the user to make difficult choices. Clean up redundant files without affecting the normal use of the terminal. Segmented download and upgrade can mainly reduce the space and power requirements for the upgrade. The segment download and segmentation installation takes less time in the background, and only needs to restart the terminal when all the installations are completed, which improves the efficiency of the upgrade. , improved user experience.

In addition, based on the above-described first embodiment and the second embodiment, it is also possible to implement The way that the less-used software and files of the user's photos and applications are uploaded to the cloud reduces the use of the storage space. Only the cache file is reserved in the device, so that the space occupied is small, and the file uploaded to the cloud is downloaded after the upgrade is completed. Come down. The segmented upgrade can also prompt the user which modules are updated when downloading the upgrade package. The user can selectively upgrade, and then select other upgrades or only upgrade some functions, prompt the user, and the user selects partial upgrade.
