A chat recording processing method of the live chat tool shown in the exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for processing a chat log of a live chat tool according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, it may include:

S201. Read a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user from the cache in response to the request for acquiring the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user.

In some embodiments, the request to obtain a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user may specifically be a request to trigger a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user. For example, when the user clicks a control or button such as "display more messages" or "acquire history chats", a request is sent to trigger a history chat record between the current user and a specific user. For example, when the user scrolls down the screen using the mouse in the chat window of the current user and the specific user, a request to trigger a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user may also be sent. It should be noted that the user may send a request for triggering the display of the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user through multiple operations. The specific implementation manner may be flexible and diverse, and is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, the request to obtain a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user may also be a request to trigger an unread instant message between the current user and the particular user. For example, when the user triggers the display of the unread instant message by opening the chat window with the specific user in the chat tool, it may be determined that the request for obtaining the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user is sent. For example, if the user closes the chat window with the specific user, when receiving the instant message sent by the specific user to the current user, the instant chat tool can display the prompt information to prompt the user that there is an unread message. When the user clicks on the prompt message to trigger the display of the unread message, it may be determined that a request to obtain a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user is sent. It should be noted that, in some implementations, after receiving the request to trigger the display of the unread instant message between the current user and the specific user, it may further be determined whether the quantity or capacity of the unread instant message is less than a set threshold; If the result of the determination is yes, it is determined to send a request to obtain a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user. The setting threshold may be set according to requirements. For example, the setting threshold may be an upper limit of the number of displays or the capacity of the display interface of the instant messaging tool. The capacity of the message may refer to the number of words and the number of rows of the information contained in the message. Or the space occupied. For example, if the current user A closes the chat window with user B, when receiving a new message sent by user B to user A, it can be determined whether the number or capacity of the new message is greater than the upper limit of the display interface display message; If no, the historical chat record is obtained, so that the new message and the historical chat record are combined and displayed, so that the user can quickly obtain the context information and facilitate the user to communicate.

In some embodiments, the request to obtain a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user may also be that the specific user is sent to the instant message sent to the current user and the number or capacity of the instant message is determined to be less than the setting. At the threshold, a request to obtain a historical chat record between the current user and a specific user is sent. For example, instead of obtaining a historical chat record in response to a user triggering a request to display an unread message, in this embodiment, when a new unread message is acquired and the message is determined to meet a preset condition, the trigger is triggered. Get a request for a history chat.

In some implementations, the reading, by the cache, the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user includes: determining whether the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user is read from the local storage space; As a result, the historical chat history between the current user and the specific user is read from the cache. Further, the method further includes: if the determination result is no, reading a historical chat record between the current user and a specific user from the local storage space, storing the read chat record in a cache, and recording has been The local storage space reads historical chat records between the current user and a specific user. For example, when receiving a request to obtain a historical chat record, it may be determined whether the chat record has been read from the local storage space. For example, an identifier can be set to distinguish whether a chat record has been read locally. If the chat record is read from the local storage space according to the set identifier, the chat record is directly read from the cache. If it is judged that the chat record has not been read from the local storage space according to the set identifier, the chat record can be read from the local storage space and stored in the cache. Further, the setting identifier is used to indicate that the chat record has been read from the local storage space. When the request to obtain the chat record is received again, the chat record can be obtained directly from the cache. Since the local storage space is accessed only when the logo is not read from the local storage space, other scenes read the chat record from the cache, which greatly improves the speed of obtaining the chat record and reduces the loss of the local storage space.

In some embodiments, the method further includes: when determining that the trigger condition is met, reading a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user from the local storage space, and saving the read chat record in the cache. . In this implementation, historical chat records can be read from the local storage space in advance and saved in the cache. When a request to get a chat record is received, the chat record is obtained from the cache each time. The timing of obtaining the historical chat record in advance may be that the trigger condition is met, and the specific trigger condition may be very flexible, as long as the historical chat record is obtained from the local storage space at one time before receiving the request for obtaining the chat record. Example It is stated that when an instant message sent by a specific user to the current user is received, it may be determined that the trigger condition is met. For example, when the user is triggered to display an operation of displaying a chat window of the current user and a specific user, it is determined that the trigger condition is satisfied. Of course, the above is only an exemplary description, and the specific trigger condition may be flexible and diverse, as long as the historical chat record is obtained from the local storage space at one time before receiving the request to obtain the chat record.

In some implementations, the reading, by the cache, the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user includes: determining whether the quantity or capacity of the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user stored in the cache is greater than a set threshold; If the judgment result is yes, the historical chat record whose quantity or capacity is equal to the set threshold is directly read from the cache; if the judgment is no, some historical chat records are read from the local storage space and stored in the cache, so that the cache is cached. The number or capacity of historical chat records in the middle is greater than or equal to the set threshold. For example, when the user clicks "View More", it can trigger the loading of N history messages. Among them, the setting of N can be performed as needed. At this time, the top message of the chat session (generally the one that is the longest from the current time) is found, and then N messages of the history are read forward from the cache with this message as the boundary. Specifically, if the history message record in the cache is sufficient, that is, greater than or equal to N, the read history chat record is directly displayed to the top of the chat session. If it is determined that the history message record saved in the cache is less than N, it is assumed that the message in the cache that meets the condition is M. From the local history record, the first message record in the cache is used as a boundary, and the (NM) item is read forward. And stored in the cache. Then, find the top message of the chat session, and then use this message as the boundary to read N message records from the cache and display them.

In some embodiments, the method further includes: when determining that the historical chat record includes a picture, determining, according to the identifier of the picture, whether a picture corresponding to the identifier of the picture is stored in the cache; if the determination result is yes And acquiring a picture corresponding to the picture identifier from the cache. Further, if the determination result is no, the picture is obtained from the local storage space, and the corresponding relationship between the picture and the picture and the picture identifier is stored in the cache. For example, in the specific implementation of the present invention, when the chat record is saved, if the chat record includes a picture, the identifier of the picture is saved only in the chat record, and is used to identify the picture. Further, the present invention may set a picture cache for storing picture data corresponding to the picture ID. When the history chat record is obtained, if it is determined that the chat record includes a picture, for example, the chat record includes a picture ID, whether the picture corresponding to the picture ID is stored in the picture cache may be determined according to the picture ID; , the image content is directly displayed for display, thereby greatly improving the speed of obtaining the image without downloading the image from the local storage space every time. If it does not exist, the picture is read from the local storage space and saved in the picture cache. Since the pictures in the chat log of the instant chat tool are often repeated, for example, various expression pictures, it is only necessary to save the picture and the correspondence between the picture identifier and the picture in the picture cache, that is, when the same picture is obtained, the cache is obtained from the cache. Directly reading the picture and the same picture The identified image is only saved once in the cache, reducing the waste of storage space. The identifier of the image can be obtained by obtaining the MD5 value of the image. It should be noted that, through the above processing, the speed of acquiring and displaying the picture information can be separately improved without having to read the picture from the local disk every time.

S202. Display a historical chat record between the current user and a specific user.

It should be noted that, in the specific implementation, the historical chat record can be displayed separately. It can also be combined with an unread instant message. For example, the instant message may be displayed in combination with the historical chat record in response to a user triggering a request to display the instant message.

In some embodiments, the method further includes: saving an access time of the historical chat record from the cache; determining the least recently used historical chat record according to the access time when the trigger condition is met, deleting the cached from the cache Historical chat history. For example, if there are more chat records in the current user, the chat records and pictures stored in the cache are more, and the computer memory is occupied. In order to reduce the memory occupation, the current user can be used to obtain the chat of the specific user every time the cache is accessed. Recording the access time; and may trigger to determine whether the current cached data exceeds the upper limit of the cache and there is no unread new message in the cache, and if so, determine the least recently used chat record according to the access time, and delete the cached record from the cache chat record. The least recently used chat record may be a record whose access time exceeds a set time from the current time, or may be a chat record with the least number of visits within a preset time. Through the above processing, memory usage can be effectively reduced and memory overhead can be reduced.

In some implementations, the reading, by the cache, the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user includes: reading, from the cache, a partial historical chat record that meets a specific condition between the current user and the specific user; the specific condition includes a historical chat record that meets a specific time condition, a specific location condition, or a specific keyword; the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user is displayed: displaying the partial historical chat record, wherein the partial historical chat There is no time continuous relationship between each chat record in the record or the historical chat record does not have a time continuous relationship with the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool. In the specific implementation, instead of obtaining all the chat records between the current user and the specific user and continuously displaying the chat records in chronological order, only part of the historical chat records meeting the specific conditions may be obtained and displayed. For example, a historical chat record that meets certain time conditions. Assuming that the current time is Friday, the current user A and the specific user B are chatting through the live chat tool. User B mentioned: "How are we going to deal with things mentioned on Tuesday?" At this time, User A is likely to want to check the chat history on Tuesday. At this time, "Tuesday" can be identified as a keyword, only from the cache. Get the historical chat history corresponding to Tuesday and show the chat history on Tuesday in the chat interface. Thus, the chat history on Tuesday and the most recent chat history (Friday) displayed in the current window do not have a time continuous relationship. In this way, not only can you get less data, but also it is convenient for users to visually view the content of interest without having to write a lot of chats. Look for interesting content in the recording (for example, all chats in this continuous time period from Friday to Tuesday). For example, the chat record may also be a chat record that meets a specific location condition. It is assumed that the frequent travel of the current user will change the login location, and the chat history of the specific location may also be obtained according to the input of the user. For example, the partial history chat record may also be a chat record that matches a specific keyword. Wherein, when matching the keywords, it may be an exact match or a partial match, and may be an exact match or a fuzzy match. Further, artificial intelligence automatic matching can also be performed using a machine learning algorithm. For example, User B mentioned "How is the XX matter handled?", then you can determine the keyword "XX" and find the matching chat record. If there are multiple chat records for the keyword "XX", they can be combined and displayed. For example, the current time is Friday, and there are associated chat records on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively, and the chat records on Wednesday and Tuesday can be displayed in reverse order of time. At this time, there is no time continuous relationship between each chat record in the partial historical chat record displayed.

To facilitate a clear understanding of the embodiments of the present application in a specific scenario, the embodiments of the present application are described below with two specific examples. It should be noted that the specific examples are only for those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the specific examples.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a method for processing a chat log of a live chat tool according to still another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, it may include:

S401. The instant messenger tool receives a new message sent by a specific user to the current user.

S402. The instant chat tool saves the new message in a cache and in a local disk file.

S403. Read the new message from the cache and display the new message in response to the user triggering a request to display a new message.

For example, when user A opens a chat session with user B, in response to the triggering operation, a cache of user A and user B chat messages may be found from the cache, and cached data marked as a new message is read from the cache. And clear the new message tag. The new message that is read is then displayed at the bottom of the current chat session.

S404. Determine, according to the user triggering the request for acquiring the historical chat record, whether the number or capacity of the historical chat records saved in the cache is greater than N. If the result of the determination is YES, S405 is performed; if the result of the determination is No, S406 is executed.

S405. Read a historical chat record whose quantity or capacity is equal to N directly from the cache.

S406. Read a part of the historical chat record from the local disk file and save it in the cache, so that the number or capacity of the historical chat records in the cache is greater than N, and the historical chat record whose quantity or capacity is equal to N is read from the cache.

For example, when the user clicks "View More", it can trigger the loading of N history messages. Among them, N Settings can be made as needed. At this time, find the top message in the current session window, that is, the message displayed in the current session window that is farthest from the current time. With this message as the boundary, read N history message records from the cache forward. . If it is determined that the history message record saved in the cache is greater than N, the read N history records are directly displayed. If it is determined that the history message record saved in the cache is less than N, for example, the history message saved in the current cache is M, the first message record in the cache is used as a boundary (for example, a record stored in the cache that is the farthest from the current time) ), from the local history message record, read the (NM) message record forward and store it in the cache, bounded by a record in the cache that is farthest from the current time. Then, N messages are read forward from the cache, bounded by the top message displayed in the current session window.

S407. Display the N historical chat records obtained from the cache.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a method for processing a chat log of a live chat tool according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, it may include:

S501. Receive an operation of triggering a first control by a user.

S502. Display at least part of a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user in response to the user triggering the operation of the first control; wherein, the chat records in the at least part of the historical chat records do not have a time continuous relationship or There is no time continuous relationship between at least some of the historical chat records and the chat records recently displayed by the current instant messenger.

In some embodiments, the method further includes: receiving an operation of the user triggering the second control; displaying at least part of the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user in response to the user triggering the operation of the second control; wherein the at least There is a time continuous relationship between each of the chat records in the partial history chat record or a time continuous relationship between the at least part of the historical chat record and the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool. Further, before displaying at least part of the historical chat record between the current user and the specific user, the method further includes: reading at least part of the historical chat record between the former user and the specific user from the cache; wherein the cache is saved There are historical chat records previously read from the local storage space and historical chat records stored directly in the cache.

In the embodiment of the present invention, instead of obtaining all the chat records of the user in the prior art and continuously displaying the chat records in chronological order, only part of the historical chat records meeting the specific conditions may be obtained and displayed, and the historical chat records displayed are displayed. There is no time continuous relationship between each of the chat records in the record, or there is no time continuous relationship between the at least part of the historical chat record and the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool, so as to facilitate the user to obtain a specific chat record. Since only a part of the historical chat record is acquired, the amount of acquired data is small, the reading speed is fast, and the efficiency of the user to obtain information is significantly improved, and the user experience is improved.

The specific implementation will be described in detail below.

In a specific implementation, the second control and the first control may be displayed on a user interface of the instant messenger tool. The second control is configured to display at least part of a historical chat record between the current user and the specific user in response to the trigger of the user, where each of the at least partial historical chat records has a time continuous relationship or the historical chat Record a time-continuous relationship with the chat history recently shown by the current live chat tool. The first control is configured to display at least part of a historical chat record that meets a specific condition between a current user and a specific user in response to a trigger of the user, where each piece of the chat record does not have a time continuous relationship or There is no time continuous relationship between the historical chat record and the chat record recently displayed by the current instant chat tool.

For example, the second control may be displaying the latest N chat records or displaying all historical chat records, and the first control may be displaying related chat records. For example, if a user wants to see a continuous history chat record, such as a chat record between Tuesday and Friday, the second control can be clicked. The first control can be triggered if the user wants to view some of the relevant chat records. See Figure 6A for details.

It should be particularly noted that, in response to the user triggering the operation of the first control, a partial historical chat record that reads a specific condition between the current user and the specific user from the cache may be a partial historical chat record that meets certain conditions. The specific conditions include historical chat records that meet certain time conditions, specific location conditions, or that match a particular keyword. In the specific implementation, instead of obtaining all the chat records between the current user and the specific user and continuously displaying the chat records in chronological order, only part of the historical chat records meeting the specific conditions may be obtained and displayed. For example, a historical chat record that meets certain time conditions. Assuming that the current time is Friday, the current user A and the specific user B are chatting through the live chat tool. User B mentioned: "How are we going to deal with things mentioned on Tuesday?" At this time, User A is likely to want to check the chat history on Tuesday. At this time, "Tuesday" can be identified as a keyword, only from the cache. Get the historical chat history corresponding to Tuesday and show the chat history on Tuesday in the chat interface. Thus, the chat history on Tuesday and the most recent chat history (Friday) displayed in the current window do not have a time continuous relationship. In this way, not only can you get less data, but also the user can intuitively view the content of interest without having to search through a large number of chat records (such as all chat records in the continuous time period from Friday to Tuesday). Interested in content. For example, the chat record may also be a chat record that meets a specific location condition. It is assumed that the frequent travel of the current user will change the login location, and the chat history of the specific location may also be obtained according to the input of the user. For example, the partial history chat record may also be a chat record that matches a specific keyword. Wherein, when matching the keywords, it may be an exact match or a partial match, and may be an exact match or a fuzzy match. Further, artificial intelligence automatic matching can also be performed using a machine learning algorithm. For example, User B mentioned "How is the XX matter handled?", then you can determine the keyword "XX" and find the matching chat record. If there are multiple chat records for the keyword "XX", they can be combined and displayed. For example, the current time is Friday, and there are associated chat records on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively, and the chat records on Wednesday and Tuesday can be displayed in reverse order of time. At this time, there is no time continuous relationship between each chat record in the partial historical chat record displayed.

In this embodiment of the invention, multiple controls can be displayed in the user interface, and different display modes are entered according to the user's triggering operation on the control. One display mode is to display all or part of the chat history in a time-continuous manner. One display mode is to display partial chat records in a non-time-continuous manner. 6B and 6C are schematic diagrams of effects according to an embodiment of the present invention. 6B is a time-continuous display mode, and FIG. 6C is a non-time continuous display mode in which a dotted line is used to separate new chat history and historical chat history. For example, suppose the current user A and user B are chatting through the instant chat tool, and the currently recently displayed chat record is the

new messages

103 and 104, and the message 104 is generated at 9:31 on January 8, 2016, the message 103 The build time is 9:28 on January 8, 2016. In a specific implementation, the second control 105 may be displayed on the display interface of the instant chat tool, for example, a control for displaying all the chat records; and the first control 106 is displayed, for example, a control for displaying the related chat record.

Referring to FIG. 6B, if the user triggers the second control 105, the historical chat records of the former user A and the user B in a continuous time period are read from the cache, and the chat records are sequentially displayed in chronological order. As shown in FIG. 6B, if the user triggers the second control, in addition to displaying the message 103 and the message 104, the historical

chat log messages

101, 102, ... 107 are further displayed. The generation time of the

messages

101, 102, and 107 is continuous, that is, the chat records that are continuously generated by the user in the current time are obtained, and the display is also displayed in chronological order. Corresponding to the display mode of FIG. 6B, if the user wants to view the chat history on Tuesday (ie, January 4, 2016), it is necessary to search in the continuous chat record traced from the current time.

Referring to FIG. 6C, if the user triggers the first control 106, that is, the user selects to display the related chat record, the historical chat record of the former user A and the user B that meets the specific conditions is read from the cache. As shown in FIG. 6C, if the user triggers the second control, in addition to displaying the message 103 and the message 104, only the chat record 107 associated with the current message is displayed, ie, only the chat record on Tuesday (January 4, 2016) is displayed. Instead of displaying

messages

101, 102, etc. Corresponding to the display mode of FIG. 6C, if the user can conveniently view the chat history on Tuesday (ie, January 4, 2016), it is not necessary to search in a large number of consecutive chat records traced from the current time.
