The server may send the indication information to the target client, where the indication information includes information of the target auxiliary computing client, for example, the target auxiliary computing client. The user identifier, the network address, and the like, so that the target client sends the second blockchain to the target auxiliary computing client, and the target auxiliary computing client checks the target client through the second blockchain to determine whether the target client is Legally, the target auxiliary computing client performs verification on the target client and sends a verification result to the target client to the server.

S104. The server receives the verification result of the target auxiliary calculation client to the target client, and sends a video stream address to the target client when the verification result of the target client is legal. When the verification result of the target client is illegal, the server rejects Send the video stream address to the target client.

Specifically, when the server receives the verification result of the target client sent by the target auxiliary computing client, if the verification result is legal, the server determines that the target client is a legitimate client, and sends a video stream address to the target client. If the verification result is illegal, it is determined that the target client is an illegal client, and the video stream address is refused to be delivered to the target client, thereby preventing the illegal client from stealing the video stream.

Preferably, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the server determines that the current live broadcast peak (which can be determined according to the number of simultaneous online clients, and reaches a preset number, that is, a viewing peak), the server is in the predetermined auxiliary computing client set. Select the target Auxiliary Computing client. At the peak of the non-view live broadcast, the server can directly verify the client that sends the video stream address request. When the client's check result is valid, the video stream address is sent to the client. The verification result on the client is If it is illegal, it refuses to send the video stream address to the client.

As shown in FIG. 2, before the step S102, the method of the embodiment of the present invention may further include:

S105. The server sends the third blockchain to all clients of the live platform, so that each client on the live broadcast platform receives the third blockchain, generates a fourth blockchain, and sends the fourth blockchain to the client. Server

The fourth blockchain includes client computing capability information, where the third blockchain may be the same as or different from the first blockchain. Preferably, the third blockchain and the first blockchain are Differently, because the server sends the third blockchain to calculate the computing power of each client of the live platform, the size of the third blockchain can be smaller than the first blockchain to save the computing resources of the client.

S106. The server selects, according to the received computing capability information of the client, a preset number of clients whose computing power reaches a preset requirement, as a set of auxiliary computing clients of the server.

Specifically, the preset requirement may be that the preset client computing capability (described in detail below) is reached, and the preset number may be preset, for example, five, ten, and the like.

In this embodiment, by predetermining the set of auxiliary computing clients of the server, when the server needs (for example, watching the live broadcast peak), the client in the auxiliary computing client set can be used to complete some work of the server, for example, the present invention. In the embodiment, the client that sends the video stream address request is verified, which can reduce the server computing pressure.

Further, the client computing capability information is a processor calculation time for the client to generate the fourth blockchain consumption, and the foregoing step S106 may specifically include:

The server generates, according to the received processor calculation time, the processor calculation time consumed by the fourth blockchain, and selects, by the processor, a preset number of clients whose computing time is lower than the preset time threshold, as the auxiliary computing client of the server. End collection,

Alternatively, the server generates, according to the received processor calculation time consumed by the fourth blockchain by each client, and selects a preset number of clients whose processor calculates the shortest time as the auxiliary computing client set of the server.

Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, the second blockchain includes computing capability information of the target client. The method in the embodiment of the present invention further includes: after determining that the target client is legal, if the target client is When the computing power reaches the preset requirement, the target client is added to the server's auxiliary computing client set.

In this embodiment, the server may determine the computing capability of the target client according to the computing capability information of the target client in the second blockchain. If the computing capability of the target client reaches the preset requirement, the target client is added to the auxiliary computing client of the server. Collections so that subsequent tasks can be assigned to the target client. It can be understood that, for other clients that are newly added to the live platform server, the server may also deliver the third blockchain, so that the newly added client generates a fourth blockchain according to the third blockchain. The four-blockchain includes computing capability information of the newly added client, so that the server can determine the capability of the newly added client, and when the requirement is met, the newly added client can be added to the secondary computing client set of the server.

In other embodiments of the present invention, the method in the embodiment of the present invention may further include:

After the target client is added to the set of auxiliary computing clients of the server, if the When the target client leaves the live broadcast platform, the target client is deleted in the secondary computing client collection.

In this way, the auxiliary computing client set of the server can delete the invalid client that exits the live platform in time, and avoid invalid task assignment of the invalid server.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the data structures of the first blockchain, the second blockchain, the third blockchain, and the fourth blockchain are the same; the data structure includes a block number of the blockchain, The hash value of the previous blockchain, the processor calculation time for calculating the new blockchain consumption, the key value required to calculate the new blockchain, the timestamp of the current time, the blockchain function data, and the current blockchain hash value. The blockchain function data includes a room number of a room where the current client is located, a user identifier of the client, and a logo of the client. In the embodiment of the present invention, the foregoing data structure is specifically implemented as follows:

Struct BlockData{

Int64 index;

String previousHash;

Int64 timestamp;

String key;

Int64 timeelaps;

String data;

String hash;

}

Where index is used to indicate the block number of the blockchain, usually starting from 0; previousHash is the HASH value of the previous blockchain; imestamp is the timestamp; key is the key value needed to calculate the new block; timeelaps means calculating the new The processor calculates the time consumed by the block; the data represents the splicing of some data (ie, the above-mentioned blockchain function data), and the content of the data field is designed according to the functions required by the blockchain, and is directed to the present invention. In an embodiment, the data may include a room number of a room where the current client is located, a user identifier of the client, a logo of the client, and a previously encrypted value of the current time stamp; and a hash indicates a hash value of the current content of the blockchain. With the design of this blockchain, the data in the newly generated blockchain can be verified.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first blockchain may be an initial blockchain generated by the server. When the first blockchain is an initial blockchain, the initial blockchain is the first generated blockchain, and the initial The block number of the blockchain is 0, the timestamp is the current time, and the hash value of the previous blockchain is 0.

In the embodiment of the present invention, an algorithm for generating a new blockchain in a blockchain is simultaneously designed. First, an initial blockchain (such as a first blockchain) is generated by a server, and the server sends the request to each initiated video stream address. Client, then after the client receives the initial blockchain, an algorithm is needed to generate the next blockchain. The specific implementation is as follows: First, the data structure of the previous blockchain has been obtained, and the next blockchain is generated according to the data of the previous blockchain.

In the embodiment of the present invention, it is assumed that the name of the previous blockchain is prevblock, and the name of the newly generated blockchain is newblock. The process of generating a new blockchain is as follows:

(1) Calculate the block number of the new blockchain.

Newblock.index=prevblock.index+1;

Then the block number of the new blockchain is the current block number plus one.

(2) Calculate the timestamp of the new blockchain.

Newblock.timestamp=time();

The timestamp of the new blockchain is to get the current time.

(3) Calculate the hash value of the previous blockchain of the new blockchain.

Newblock.previousHash=prevblock.hash;

The hash value of the previous blockchain of the new blockchain is the hash of the previous blockchain obtained.

(4) Calculate the key value of the previous blockchain of the new blockchain.

Newblock.key=prevblock.key;

The key value of the previous blockchain of the new blockchain is the key value of the previous blockchain obtained.

(5) Calculate the data of the new blockchain.

Newblock.data=AES.encrypt(Newblock.roomid+Newblock.uid+Newblock.token+Newblock.timestamp,Newblock.key);

The data data of the new blockchain is the client token (token) obtained by the current client login, the client's user identifier (uid), the room number currently requesting to watch the live video, and the current timestamp, and then used together. The encryption algorithm AES further encrypts the data, and the key value used is the key value sent by the server. Of course, the encryption algorithm can also use a more complicated encryption algorithm, and the AES encryption algorithm is not limited herein.

(6) Calculate the hash value of the new blockchain.

Newblock.hash=HASH(index+previousHash+timestamp+data+key);

The hash value of the new blockchain is the index field with the new blockchain and the previousHash field and the timestamp field, and the data field and the key field.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the hash (HASH) algorithm corresponding to the hash value is unified, and the HASH algorithm may be the SHA-256 algorithm, and may be other HASH algorithms, such as SHA-1, etc., which is not limited herein.

(7) Calculate the timeelaps value of the new blockchain.

Before calculating the new blockchain, the current time is obtained first. After calculating the new blockchain, the current time is obtained again. The two time difference values indicate the processor calculation for calculating the consumption of the new blockchain. Time is as follows:

Newblock.timeelaps=timeEnd()-timeStart();

Where timeEnd is the time obtained after the calculation is completed, and timeStart is the time when the calculation starts. Between the two, the difference is the processor calculation time consumed by the new block.

So far, through the above steps, an algorithm for generating a new blockchain through a blockchain is realized. In the embodiment of the present invention, when the client generates the second blockchain by receiving the first blockchain, the foregoing steps are implemented.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the target auxiliary computing client performs verification on the target client through the second blockchain, and the step of determining whether the data is legal may include: assuming that the name of the previous blockchain (the first blockchain) is Prevblock, then received a newly generated blockchain (second blockchain) whose name is newblock.

(1) First determine whether its index is correct.

Newblock.index! =prevblock.index+1;

If the block number of the new blockchain is not the block number of the previous block plus 1, it indicates that the new blockchain is invalid and directly returns the blockchain error information.

(2) Then determine the hash value of the blockchain.

Newblock.previousHash! =prevblock.hash

If the hash value of the previous blockchain of the new blockchain is not equal to the hash value of the previous blockchain, the new blockchain is considered illegal and directly returns the blockchain error information.

(3) Determine the hash value of the new blockchain.

The hash value of the new blockchain is the hash result of the entire data of the new blockchain.

HASH (Newblock.index+Newblock.previousHash+Newblock.timestamp+Newblock.data)! =Newblock.hash;

If the hash value of the data of the entire blockchain of the new blockchain is not equal to the new blockchain hash value, the new blockchain is considered invalid, and the blockchain error information is directly returned to determine that the target client is illegal. .

(4) Determine the data value of the new blockchain.

The data value of the new blockchain is encrypted by an encryption algorithm. Here, the data is decrypted to determine the legitimacy of the data.

Newblock.data=AES.decrypt(Newblock.data,Newblock.key);

At this point, the data field is decrypted to obtain the original data data. From the data, the uid, token, room number, and timestamp can be known. At this time, the target auxiliary computing client verifies that the target client's uid is Is not a valid uid, whether the token is a token issued by the server, and whether the room number is a valid room number. If the check is legal, the target auxiliary computing client will report the verification result to the server, and the server will not use the room number. The corresponding video stream address is delivered to the target client.
