Detailed ways

The terms used in the implementation mode part of this application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit this application.

As the App design becomes more and more complex, the App installation package becomes larger and larger, and the user has to download the complete installation package when using a certain function of the App, which leads to a waste of user traffic, and the user downloads and installs the App The waiting time is longer, and the App installation package takes up more storage space.

Regarding the redundant resource files in the App installation package, one of the existing related technologies provides an on-demand resource download solution, but this solution only provides on-demand download of resources. The running code still needs to be downloaded and installed in all sub-packages. In this way, the waiting time for users to download and install the App is relatively long, and the installation package of the App occupies more storage space.

Another solution provided by the existing related technology is the App Bundle solution. The App Bundle is a step further than the above solution. It not only solves the problems of redundant resources and redundant lib libraries, but also proposes a subcontracting solution that allows App developers to follow The function module splits the App into multiple sub-function packages. When users download and install the App, they can only install some high-frequency function packages, specific lib libraries and resource packages, thereby reducing the data size of the first download of the App and reducing the waste of user traffic. Other function packages can be downloaded and installed according to user needs.

Specifically, to use the App Bundle solution, multiple steps are involved:

Step 1. The developer creates a project in Android Studio and references the dependency package (com.google.android.play:core:xxx) of Google Mobile Service (GMS), and determines to dynamically install and download the sub-module development The function module Foo is written in the main function module Base to download the logic code of the function module Foo, which can trigger the download in the user interface C; then, the above logic code is compiled to generate the bundle.aab file.

Step 2. The developer uploads the bundle.aab file to the Google Play application market. Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a file uploaded by a developer in the existing related technology. As shown in Figure 1, the file uploaded by the developer is bundle.aab. The application contains two functional modules, Base and Foo. Foo needs to be dynamically loaded on demand Module. The Play application market uses tools to split the application into multiple Android application packages (Apk), where the execution logic code of Base is in base_master.apk, and the execution logic code of Foo is in foo_master.apk.

Step 3. The user downloads the application in the Play Store and runs the main function Base, and triggers the download of the code of the package foo_master.apk corresponding to the function module Foo in the user interface C in the Base. The logic of downloading and installing Foo is done together on the client side of GMS and the Play Store.

It can be seen from the above description that there are many restrictions on the on-demand download of "other function packs" in the App Bundle solution. For example, the on-demand download function must use GMS, and the App developer must explicitly specify the main function module. The logic code of the download function module Foo is written in Base, and the function package downloaded on demand can only be the function package in the currently running App, and the function of on-demand download is not flexible enough. And Foo can only be triggered by Base to download, and the functions in Foo can only be triggered and executed in Base.

Based on the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for loading a function package, which can realize that the electronic device downloads the function package according to the description information of the function required by the currently running application program.

Required function description: booking train tickets;

}

Then, the server 400 can search in the function package matching table according to the function category code 000102 in the above description information, and obtain the function package whose function category code in the matching identifier matches 000102. There are two function packages searched, respectively It is function package 1 and function package 2. At this time, assuming that the description information includes the manufacturer information of the first application, the manufacturer information is manufacturer 1, and the manufacturer information in the matching identifier of function package 1 is manufacturer 1, and the manufacturer information in the matching identifier of function package 2 is manufacturer 1, then The electronic device 100 can obtain, according to the above manufacturer information, that the matching degree between the function package 1 and the first application is 100%, and the matching degree between the function package 2 and the first application is 90%, and the server 400 downloads the manufacturer 1’s The address url1 is sent to the electronic device 100, and the url1 includes the download addresses of the function package 1 whose function category code is 000102 in the matching identifier and the dependent package of the function package 1.

In the above example, the function package whose matching identifier matches the above description information found by the server 400 is a function package with exactly the same function category code. In addition, the function package whose matching identifier matches the above description information may also include the function category code. Feature packages that are identical, but belong to the same functional category.

{

Function category code: 000202;

Required function description: payment;

}

If the function package whose function category code is 000202 in the matching identifier is not found, then the server 400 can find the same as 000202 The function package in the function category (0002). At this time, the server 400 finds two function packages, and the function category codes in the matching identifier are 000201 and 000203 respectively. Then, the server 400 can, according to the above-mentioned manufacturer information and/or version information, Determine the degree of matching between the function package with the function category code of 000201 and the first application, and the degree of matching between the function package with the function category code of 000203 and the first application. Here it is assumed that the function package with the function category code of 000203 and the first application The program has a high degree of matching, so the server 400 sends the download address url4 of the manufacturer 4 to the electronic device 100. The url4 includes the function package whose function category code is 000203 in the matching identifier and the download address of the dependent package of the function package.

In a specific implementation, the server 400 may implement the operations of step 1301 and step 1303 through the processor 410 and the communication interface 420, and implement the operation of step 1302 through the processor 410.
