具体实施方式
图1为应用本申请一个实施例的系统架构示意图。如图1所示,该系统包括开发者平台、应用市场、电子设备和应用图标管理平台。
开发者平台用于开发者开发应用程序。本实施例中的开发者平台还为开发者提供图标更新软件开发包(software develop kit,SDK)。这样,开发者使用开发者平台开发应用程序时,可以在应用工程中引用图标更新SDK,并将图标更新SDK集成到应用工程中。其中,图标更新SDK是指能够与应用图标管理平台交互并获取应用程序在电子设备中的图标以及能够调用电子设备的系统接口来设置应用程序图标的SDK。
开发者使用开发者平台开发得到集成了图标更新SDK的应用程序之后,可以将该应用程序发布到应用市场。
本实施例中的电子设备的操作系统可以包括安卓(Android)系统、苹果操作系统(iOS系统)、Windows系统或Linux系统等。
开发者可以在应用图标管理平台中设置应用程序的图标。图2为本申请实施例的应用图标管理平台中设置应用程序图标的设置界面的一个示意图。可以理解的是,图2仅是图标设置界面和图标设置方式的一个示例,本申请实施例并不限制图标设置界面的具体内容以及并不限制应用程序的图标设置的具体实现方式。
如图2所示,应用图标管理平台为应用程序提供的图标设置界面中,可以为开发者提供一个或多个备选图标的选项。开发者从这些选项中选中应用程序的目标图标,并点击提交之后,应用图标管理平台中记录应用程序的目标图标。
可选地,如图3所示,应用图标管理平台还可以为开发者提供上传其他备选图标的功能,以便于开发者能够上传更多的备选图标,丰富开发者的选择。其中,用户点击“上传”按钮之后,可以向应用图标管理平台上传更多的图标。
可选地,应用图标管理平台还可以为开发者提供删除备选图标的功能,以便于开发者能够删除不需要的备选图标,节省应用图标管理平台的存储资源。
电子设备可以从应用市场下载该集成了图标更新SDK的应用程序,并安装应用程序。电子设备安装应用程序之后,可以通过应用程序中的图标更新SDK与应用图标管理平台交互,以从应用图标管理平台接收应用程序的目标图标的指示信息,并基于该指示信息调用电子设备的系统接口,将应用程序的桌面图标设置为该目标图标。本实施例中的电子设备的一种示例为图4所示的电子设备。
本实施例中,因为电子设备中应用程序的图标替换是通过集成在应用程序中的SDK与应用图标管理平台的交互来实现的,因此,在开发者有更新电子设备上的应用程序图标的需要时,只需在应用图标管理平台中更新应用程序的目标图标即可。
由此可知,与通过更新应用程序或者重新下载和安装应用程序来更新电子设备中的应用程序图标相比,本实施例的系统能够低成本、更灵活、更快速地实现电子设备中的应用程序图标的更新或替换。
本实施例中,可选地,应用图标管理平台和开发者平台可以是同一个平台,或者,应用图标管理平台可以由部署在网络侧设的设备来实现。
应用图标管理平台和开发者平台为同一个平台时,还可以进一步降低应用程序开发者维护应用程序图标的成本。
本实施例中,考虑到不同的电子设备的系统类型不同,且不同类型的系统用于设置应用程序图标的接口不同,在一些实现方式中,开发者平台可以为在不同系统类型的电子设备上运行的应用程序提供不同的图标更新SDK,每个图标更新SDK中调用的是对应类型系统中的应用程序图标设置接口。
考虑到不同的电子设备的系统类型不同,且不同类型的系统用于显示应用程序图标的接口不同,在另一些实现方式中,开发者平台可以为在不同系统类型的电子设备上运行的应用程序提供同一个图标更新SDK,该图标更新SDK中包括对这些不同类型系统中的应用程序图标设置接口的调用。该实现方式中,电子设备中的图标更新SDK确定应用程序的目标图标之后,需要基于电子设备的系统类型来调用与该系统类型对应的应用程序图标设置接口。
不同的系统类型对应不同的图标更新SDK,可以减小图标更新SDK的代码量,从而可以降低电子设备与应用市场之间的数据传输量和降低传输时延,并且可以节约电子设备的存储资源,此外,可以降低图标更新SDK的复杂度,从而可以提高电子设备更新应用程序图标的效率。
不同的系统类型对应同一个图标更新SDK,由于不用区分应用程序的应用系统类型,所以可以降低开发难度,提高开发效率。
本实施例中,考虑到不同的电子设备的系统版本不同,且不同版本的系统用于设置应用程序图标的接口不同,在一些实现方式中,开发者平台可以为在不同系统版本的电子设备上运行的应用程序提供不同的图标更新SDK,每个图标更新SDK中调用的是对应类型版本中的应用程序图标设置接口。
考虑到相同系统类型的不同电子设备的系统版本不同,且不同版本的系统用于显示应用程序图标的接口不同的情况,在另一些实现方式中,开发者平台可以为在不同系统版本的电子设备上运行的应用程序提供同一个图标更新SDK,该图标更新SDK中包括对这些不同类型版本中的应用程序图标设置接口的调用。该实现方式中,电子设备中的图标更新SDK确定应用程序的目标图标之后,需要基于电子设备的系统版本来调用与该系统版本对应的应用程序图标设置接口。
不同的系统版本对应不同的图标更新SDK,可以减小图标更新SDK的代码量,从而可以降低电子设备与应用市场之间的数据传输量和降低传输时延,并且可以节约电子设备的存储资源,此外,可以降低图标更新SDK的复杂度,从而可以提高电子设备更新应用程序图标的效率。
不同的系统版本对应同一个图标更新SDK,由于不用区分应用程序的应用系统版本,所以可以降低开发难度,提高开发效率。

电子设备100的软件系统可以采用分层架构,事件驱动架构,微核架构,微服务架构,或云架构。本申请实施例以分层架构的系统为例,结合图5,示例性说明电子设备100的软件结构。例如,电子设备100的软件系统为分层架构的Android系统时,其软件结构示意图如图5所示。
分层架构将软件分成若干个层,每一层都有清晰的角色和分工。层与层之间通过软件接口通信。在一些实施例中,将Android系统分为五层,从上至下分别为应用程序层,应用程序框架层,安卓运行时(android runtime,ART)和原生C/C++库,硬件抽象层(hardware abstract layer,HAL)以及内核层。

活动管理器可以提供活动管理服务(activity manager service,AMS),AMS可以用于系统组件(例如活动、服务、内容提供者、广播接收器)的启动、切换、调度以及应用进程的管理和调度工作。

本申请的实施例中,电子设备通过图标更新SDK来设置应用程序图标的流程可以称为应用程序图标的在线替换流程。
图6为本申请一个实施例的电子设备的应用程序的图标在线替换方法的流程示意图。如图6所示,该方法可以包括S610、S620、S630、S640和S650。
S610,用户启动电子设备中的应用程序。
例如,用户点击电子设备桌面上的图标,以启动该图标对应的应用程序。
S620,应用程序拉起集成的图标更新SDK。
该步骤也可以理解为应用程序的主线程调用该应用程序中集成的图标更新SDK。
S630,图标更新SDK向应用程序返回响应。
例如,图标更新SDK向应用程序的主线程返回响应。本实施例中,图标更新SDK在被拉起之后,直接向应用程序返回响应,可以避免阻塞和影响应用的启动时长。本实施例中,图标更新SDK被拉起并向应用程序直接返回响应后,后续执行的图标替换操作与应用程序的主线程异步,或者说与应用程序的主线程并行处理。
S640,应用程序处理其他启动事务。
例如,应用程序的主线程执行相关启动操纵。
S650,图标更新SDK与应用图标管理平台交互以及与电子设备的操作系统交互,以实现图标在线替换。
本实施例中,在S650后,用户再次返回桌面查看,可以看到该应用程序的图标已设置为开发者当前为应用程序设置的目标图标。
可选的,本申请还可以将电子设备的使用用户进行分群,对不同的用户分别配置不同的图标,为不同用户选择合适的图标。
本实施例提供给应用程序的开发者提供了一种在线替换图标方案,与现有技术中需要升级或重新安装应用程序相比,通过采用平台配置与应用程序中集成SDK的方式来实现图标的在线替换,可以降低开发者的实现复杂度,从而可以降低成本。
此外,本实施例中,应用图标管理平台直接向图标更新SDK发送目标图标,可以减少应用图标管理平台与图标更新SDK之间的交互次数,提高应用程序的图标更新效率。
本实施例中,可选地,S640与S620和S630也可以是异步执行的,或者说并行执行的。
本实施例中,可选地,应用图标管理平台可以直接调用电子设备的操作系统中的图标管理接口来设置应用程序的图标,也可以通过电子设备的桌面管理程序来调用操作系统中的图标管理接口来设置应用程序的图标。其中,第一种方式相比于第二种实现方式,效率更高,并且在电子设备的桌面管理程序不开放其接口调用的场景下也能实现应用程序的图标更新需求。
本实施例中的S650,即图标更新SDK与应用图标管理平台交互以实现图标在线替换,可以通过多种实现方式实现,下面对图标更新SDK与应用图标管理平台交互以实现图标在 线替换的几种示例性实现方式进行介绍。
在第一种实现方式中,S650可以包括图7中的S650-1、S650-2和S650-3,可选地,还可以包括S650-4。
S650-1,图标更新SDK向应用图标管理平台发送应用程序的图标请求。相应地,应用图标管理平台接收图标更新SDK发送的图标请求。可选地,该图标请求中可以携带应用程序的标识信息,例如携带应用程序的名称。
S650-2,应用图标管理平台向图标更新SDK发送开发者为该应用程序设置的目标图标。相应地,图标更新SDK接收该目标图标。
应用图标管理平台接收到图标请求之后,向图标更新SDK发送开发者为该应用程序设置的目标图标。开发者为该应用程序设置的目标图标的实现方式可以参考前述内容,此处不再赘述。
S650-3,图标更新SDK调用电子设备的操作系统提供的图标管理接口,将该应用程序的图标设置为所述目标图标。
本申请采用SDK直接调用底层系统接口的方式实现图标更新,解决了现有技术通过调用桌面管理程序(launcher)接口更新图标,但各厂家laucher版本不一致影响覆盖电子设备范围的问题。
以Android系统为例,图标更新SDK调用“Package Manager”方法的“setComponentE-nabledSetting”接口,将该应用程序的图标设置为所述目标图标。
以iOS系统为例,图标更新SDK调用“UIApplication”方法的“UIAlternateApplicationI-cons”分类,将该应用程序的图标设置为所述目标图标。
S650-4,电子设备的操作系统为该应用程序设置所述目标图标后,向所述图标更新SDK返回设置结果。设置结果的一种示例为告知所述图标更新SDK图标设置成功。
该实现方式中,可选地,在S650-2之后,在S650-3之前,图标更新SDK可以先判断应用程序的当前图标与目标图标是否一致。若一致,则执行S650-2及后续步骤;若不一致,则可以不执行S650-2及后续步骤,即应用程序不需要更新当前图标。
在第二种实现方式中,S650可以包括图8中的S651-1、S651-2、S651-3、S651-4、S651-5和S651-6。
S651-1,应用图标管理平台向图标更新SDK发送开发者为该应用程序设置的目标图标的标识信息。相应地,图标更新SDK接收应用图标管理平台发送的标识信息。
应用图标管理平台接收到图标请求之后,可以获取开发者为该应用程序设置的目标图标的标识信息,并向图标更新SDK发送目标图标的标识信息,简称发送目标标识信息。
S651-2,图标更新SDK判断电子设备的缓存中是否存在目标标识信息所指示的目标图标。若不存在,则执行S651-3,否则执行S651-4。
可以理解的是,电子设备的缓存中可以为应用程序预存一个或多个备用图标以及备用图标与图标标识之间的映射关系,例如可以将应用程序之前使用过的图标和图标标识之间的映射关系保存下来。
这样,图标更新SDK从应用图标管理平台接收目标标识信息之后,可以基于该映射关系查找是否存在该目标标识信息以及与该目标标识信息对应的目标图标。
作为一种示例,可以使用安全散列算法(SHA)计算图标文件的哈希值,例如使用SHA 计算图标文件的长度为256的哈希值(SHA256),并将该哈希值作为图标的标识信息。
备用图标以及备用图标与图标标识之间的映射关系的一个示例如表1所示。表1中,第一列为图标编号,为可选项;第二列为图标的名称,为可选项;第三列为图标的类型;第四列在后续内容中介绍;最后一列为图标的SHA256标识信息。表1中备用图标的最大数量可以预先设置,例如可以通过应用图标管理平台来配置备用图标的最大数量。
图标更新SDK可以基于表1确定电子设备的缓存是否包含目标标识信息对应的目标图标。
表1图标的相关信息的映射表

2 Pic2.png /data/picture/Pic2.png ada1a1……
3 Pic3.png /data/picture/Pic3.png ada1a2……
4 Pic4.png /data/picture/Pic4.png ada1a3……
5 Pic5.png /data/picture/Pic5.png ada1a4……
S651-3,图标更新SDK从图标管理平台获取目标标识信息所指示的目标图标。
例如,图标更新SDK向图标管理平台发送下载请求消息,请求下载目标图标,该下载请求消息中可以携带目标标识信息;图标管理平台接收到下载请求消息之后,向图标更新SDK发送目标标识信息所指示的目标图标,相应地,图标更新SDK接收该目标图标。
图标更新SDK接收到该目标图标之后,需要将该目标图标缓存在电子设备的缓存中,若电子设备缓存中备用图标的数量超过了最大预设值,则将最早存入的且当前并未使用的图标删除掉,存入该目标图标;若电子设备缓存中备用图标的数量未超过最大预设值,则直接保存该目标图标。
S651-4,图标更新SDK判断应用程序的当前图标与目标图标是否一致。若不一致,则执行S651-5,否则执行S651-6。
可以理解的是,电子设备的缓存中可以记录指示应用程序的当前图标的信息。例如,表1中的第四列用于指示对应图标是否为应用程序的当前图标,其中,“是”表示对应行的图标为当前图标,“否”表示对应行的图标不是当前图标。图标更新SDK基于表1可以确定目标图标是否为当前图标。
S651-5,图标更新SDK调用电子设备的操作系统提供的图标管理接口,将该应用程序的图标设置为所述目标图标。
或者可以说,图标更新SDK调用电子设备的操作系统提供的图标管理接口,将该应用程序的图标更新为目标图标。
S651-6,图标更新SDK结束执行过程。
本实现方式中,可选地,电子设备的操作系统为该应用程序设置所述目标图标后,向所述图标更新SDK返回设置结果。设置结果的一种示例为告知所述图标更新SDK图标设置成功。进一步地,图标更新SDK可以向图标管理平台返回该设置结果,以便于图标管理平台进行图标使用情况的统计。
上述实施例及其两种实现方式虽然实现了在线图标替换,但是均采用被动更新的方式,依赖用户启动应用程序,触发对图标管理平台的调用,但是对实时更新要求较高的场景这 两种方式则难以满足,因此下面介绍可以满足实时更新要求的实现方式。
图9为本申请另一个实施例的电子设备的应用程序的图标在线替换方法的流程示意图。如图9所示,该方法可以包括S910、S920-1、S930、S940、S950、S960-1、S960-2、S960-3和S960-4。
S910,开发者为应用程序设置目标图标。
开发者为该应用程序设置的目标图标的实现方式可参考前述内容,此处不再赘述。
S920-1,应用图标管理平台通过Push通道向该应用程序推送图标更新消息。
当开发者设置好目标图标,即完成图标更新之后,应用图标管理平台中采用推送(Push)通道实现将图标更新消息下行推送到电子设备侧的应用程序,相应的,电子设备侧会收到图标更新消息,用户点击该消息后,应用程序则执行S930。
图标更新消息的一种示例为告知电子设备中的应用程序其应用图标需要更新。
本实施例中,应用图标管理平台主动向电子设备侧发送图标更新消息,节约了电子设备向应用图标管理平台发送应用程序图标请求的时间,提高了图标替换效率。
S930,应用程序拉起集成的图标更新SDK。
S940,图标更新SDK向应用程序返回响应。
S950-1,图标更新SDK向应用图标管理平台发送应用程序的图标请求。相应地,应用图标管理平台接收图标更新SDK发送的图标请求。
S950-2,应用图标管理平台向图标更新SDK发送开发者为该应用程序设置的目标图标。相应地,图标更新SDK接收该目标图标。
S950-3,图标更新SDK调用电子设备的操作系统提供的图标管理接口,将该应用程序的图标设置为所述目标图标。
S950-4,电子设备的操作系统为该应用程序设置所述目标图标后,向所述图标更新SDK返回设置结果。
本实施例中,可选地,在S960-2之后,在S960-3之前,图标更新SDK可以先判断应用程序的当前图标与目标图标是否一致。若一致,则执行S960-2及后续步骤;若不一致,则可以不执行S960-2及后续步骤,即应用程序不需要更新当前图标。
本实施例中,S930、S940、S950-1、S950-2、S950-3和S950-4可以参考S620、S630、S650-1、S650-2、S650-3和S650-4,这里不再赘述。
图10所示实施例中与图9所示实施例中的相同附图标记表示相同或相似的含义,此处不再赘述。下面重点介绍图10所示实施例与图9所示实施例的不同之处。
S920-2,应用图标管理平台通过Websocket协议搭建的通道向该应用程序推送图标更新消息。
本实施例中,开发者设置好目标图标之后,若此时应用程序已启动,则应用程序会接收到应用图标管理平台通过Websocket协议搭建的通道主动推送的图标更新消息,然后拉起集成图标更新SDK。
该实施例中,通过主动向应用程序推送图标更新消息,实现用户无感知情况下的应用程序更新图标,从而提高了图标更新效率,解决了实时性的问题。
需要注意的是,开发者可在图标管理平台中选择通过Push通道向该应用程序推送图标更新消息,或者是通过Websocket协议搭建的通道向该应用程序推送图标更新消息。
