Detailed Description
According to the method and the device, the instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received and analyzed, so that the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application acquired from the third-party server in the smart television is controlled, and the user experience is improved.
In the embodiment of the invention, a Widget control (namely, AppWidget) development framework in an android operating system is used, Widget applications developed by a third-party provider can be displayed on a Launcher (desktop Launcher) customized by a smart television manufacturer, and interaction can be carried out with the third-party provider. The AppWidget can realize that a request initiating terminal (namely a smart television) binds Widget application developed by a third-party provider for a carrier through remoteview, and the purpose of acquiring page information of the third-party provider is realized. The Appwit does not limit the size of the remoteview, so that the display of the page of the third-party provider can be realized by using the technology under the application scene of the large-size interface of the smart television. The Launcher can load the data of the Widget application acquired from the third-party provider into the container constructed by the Launcher by analyzing the remoteview construction returned by the AppWidget to store the container of the Widget application developed by the third-party provider. In addition, the third-party provider is relatively simple to develop the Widget application, and the third-party provider is convenient to maintain and protect the content copyright. By the method, the content of the Widget application of a plurality of third-party providers can be aggregated in the smart television, so that the individual experience of a user is greatly met.
The embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the drawings attached hereto. It is to be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and explanatory of the invention and are not restrictive thereof.
The embodiment of the invention provides a method for controlling a Widget application provided by a third-party server, and as shown in figure 1, the method comprises the following steps:
and step 11, receiving and analyzing a first instruction command sent by a user through a remote controller, switching to the Widget application currently selected by the user according to the first instruction command, and acquiring and displaying the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application from the third-party server providing the Widget application.
In this step, when a user needs to switch to a Widget application, the user instructs the smart television to switch the current display interface to the view of the Widget application through keys (such as an up key, a down key, a left key and a right key in the remote controller) on the remote controller; and the smart television receives and analyzes a first instruction command sent by a user through a remote controller, acquires a view provided by a third-party server of the Widget application from the third-party server of the Widget application, and displays a main view of the Widget application.
And step 12, receiving and analyzing at least one second indication command sent by the user through the remote controller, and switching to a sub-control selected by the user from the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application according to the second indication command.
Each Widget application comprises at least one sub-control, and each sub-control is used for providing different television contents for a user.
In this step, after the user switches to the view of the selected Widget application, the smart television displays the view of the Widget application provided by the third server for the user, so that the user can select a required sub-control from the view of the Widget application provided by the third server, and the user instructs the smart television to switch between the sub-controls in the view of the Widget application provided by the third server through keys (such as up, down, left and right keys in a remote controller) on the remote controller, thereby realizing focus movement of the sub-controls of the Widget application through the remote controller.
Preferably, during the switching process (i.e. during the focus moving process), the icon of the currently switched sub-control (i.e. the currently focused sub-control) is displayed with a set display effect to prompt the user that the sub-control is currently switched to. For example, the icon of the sub-control currently switched to is adopted to be displayed in a highlight effect, and the like.
And step 13, receiving and analyzing a third instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller, and acquiring and displaying the view provided by the third-party server of the selected child control from the third-party server according to the third instruction command.
In this step, the user instructs the smart tv to switch between the child controls in the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application through keys (e.g., an up key, a down key, a left key, and a right key in the remote controller), and when the user switches to the child control required by the user, the user instructs the smart tv to display the view provided by the third-party server of the child control through keys (e.g., a confirmation key in the remote controller) on the remote controller. Correspondingly, the smart television receives and analyzes a third instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller, and obtains and displays the view, provided by the third-party server, of the sub-control currently selected by the user from the third-party server according to the third instruction command, so that the display of the view, provided by the third-party server, of the sub-control of the Widget application is realized through the remote controller.
Because the view of the Widget application in the smart television and the view of the child control of the Widget application are provided by the third-party server and are not developed by the developer of the smart television, the view of the Widget application provided by the third-party server cannot be controlled by the remote controller in the conventional smart television. In the embodiment of the invention, a first instruction command sent by a user through a remote controller is received and analyzed, the Widget application currently selected by the user is switched to according to the first instruction command, and a view provided by a third-party server of the Widget application is obtained and displayed from the third-party server providing the Widget application; receiving and analyzing at least one second instruction command sent by a user through a remote controller, and switching to a sub-control selected by the user from a view provided by a third-party server of the Widget application according to the second instruction command; and receiving and analyzing a third instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller, and acquiring and displaying view data provided by the third-party server of the child control currently selected by the user from the third-party server according to the third instruction command.
In the implementation, in step 11, obtaining and displaying a view of the Widget application, which is provided by a third-party server, from the third-party server that provides the Widget application, specifically includes:
acquiring attribute information of the Widget application from a third-party server;
establishing a container for storing the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application according to the attribute information of the Widget application; and the number of the first and second groups,
and acquiring the view of the Widget application provided by the third-party server from the third-party server, and storing and displaying the acquired view in the established container.
In the above step, the attribute information of the Widget application at least includes: the size of the view of the Widget application (length, width of the view), and the number of child controls that the Widget application contains.
Specifically, the Launcher binds the app Widget service when starting, analyzes the first instruction command when receiving the first instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller, obtains that the user is currently switched to a Widget application (i.e., a Widget application provided by a third-party provider), and the Launcher applies for an app Widget id for the Widget application, and obtains the Hostview (main view) of the Widget application from the provider of the Widget application (i.e., a third-party provider providing the Widget application) through the app Widget id and the entry of the Widget application. Further, the Launcher acquires the attribute information of the Widget application according to the Hostview object; after the Launcher verifies that the Widget application is a legal Widget application and has enough space to store all data of the Widget application, the Launcher loads view data of the Widget application so as to display the main view of the Widget application provided by a third-party provider on a current interface.
In implementation, in step 11, the loading process of the view data provided by the third-party server for the Widget application currently selected by the user may be implemented by the following program codes:
in the above code, once the Launcher determines that the user switches to a Widget Application, the Launcher calls a getHostView method to load data of the Widget Application, where an appwidhostview object is an object for the Launcher to establish communication with an Application (APP) of a third-party provider.
It should be noted that the View class presents the most basic UI building blocks, one View occupies a square area on the screen and is responsible for rendering and event handling. View is the base class of widgets, commonly used to create interactive Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs).
In an implementation manner, as a preferred implementation manner, in step 12, after switching to a child control selected from a view provided by a third-party server of the Widget application according to the received second instruction command, the method further includes:
judging that the currently selected sub-control carries marking information for indicating that the sub-control is positioned at the edge position of the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application; and the number of the first and second groups,
and if a second instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received, switching out the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application.
Specifically, after switching to a sub-control in a view provided by a third-party server of the Widget application by a user according to a received second instruction command, judging whether the currently selected sub-control carries marking information for indicating that the sub-control is located at an edge position of the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application; and when judging that the currently selected child control carries the marking information, executing the following processing:
if a second instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received and meets the set boundary switching condition, switching out the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application;
and if the received second instruction command does not meet the set boundary switching condition, switching to the next sub-control adjacent to the currently selected sub-control in the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application according to the second instruction command.
Further, when it is determined that the currently switched sub-control does not carry the mark information, if a second instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received, switching to a next sub-control adjacent to the currently selected sub-control in the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application according to the second instruction command.
The set boundary switching condition is that the switching direction indicated by the second instruction command is the same as the direction of the edge position of the sub-control in the view provided by the third server of the Widget application, for example, the sub-control is located at the lower edge position in the view provided by the third server of the Widget application, and the second instruction command indicates downward switching, and at this time, the set boundary switching condition is satisfied; for another example, the child Widget is located at the right edge and the upper edge of the view provided by the third server of the Widget application, and the second indication command indicates to switch to the right or switch to the down, where the set boundary switching condition is satisfied.
For example, assuming that the currently switched sub-control carries mark information indicating that the sub-control is located at the left edge and the upper edge of the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application, if a second indication command sent by a user through remote control to indicate downward switching is received at this time, the sub-control is switched to a sub-control adjacent to the sub-control and located below the sub-control; and if a second indication command which is sent by the user through remote control and used for indicating left switching is received, switching out the view provided by the third-party server of the currently selected Widget application.
As another preferred implementation manner, in step 12, after switching to a child control selected by the user from the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application according to the received second instruction command, the method further includes:
judging that the currently selected child control carries marking information for indicating that the child control is located at the edge position of the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application;
if a second instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received and meets the set boundary switching condition, sending prompt information to the user, wherein the prompt information is used for prompting that the currently selected sub-control of the user is located at the edge position of the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application; and the number of the first and second groups,
and receiving and analyzing a fourth instruction command sent by the user, switching out the view of the Widget application currently selected by the user and provided by the third-party server according to the fourth instruction command, and switching to the Widget application newly selected by the user.
In this way, when a second instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received and the second instruction command meets the set boundary switching condition, that is, when the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application currently selected by the user needs to be switched, the user is prompted that the currently selected sub-control is located at the edge position of the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application, and the Widget application newly selected by the user is switched according to a fourth instruction command of the user.
Specifically, after switching to a child control in a view provided by a third-party server of the Widget application currently selected by a user according to a received second instruction command, judging whether the currently switched child control carries marking information for indicating that the child control is located at an edge position of the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application; and when judging that the current switched sub-control carries the mark information, executing the following processing:
if a second instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received and meets the set boundary switching condition, sending prompt information to the user, switching a view provided by a third-party server of the Widget application currently selected by the user according to a fourth instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller, and switching to the Widget application newly selected by the user;
and if the received second instruction command does not meet the set boundary switching condition, switching to the next sub-control adjacent to the currently selected sub-control in the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application according to the second instruction command.
Further, when it is determined that the currently switched sub-control does not carry the mark information, if a second instruction command sent by the user through the remote controller is received, switching to a next sub-control adjacent to the currently selected sub-control in the view provided by the third-party server of the Widget application according to the second instruction command.
In implementation, in step 12, the process that the user controls the focus movement of the currently selected child control in the Widget application through a button of the remote controller may be implemented by the following program codes:
in the above code, a next focused child control is found through the getnextfocusdown id object in the dispatchekeyevent function, and then it is determined whether the child control has a tag mark for marking a boundary, if the child control marks the tag, it is considered that the focus has moved to the boundary of the view provided by the third-party server at this time, and the view provided by the third-party server of the currently selected Widget application needs to be jumped out. By the method, the Widget container and the Launcher can finish interactive control through the remote controller.
The embodiment of the invention realizes a mechanism for controlling the focus change inside the Widget application through a remote controller by combining a drawing mechanism of an Android GUI framework and an AppWidget HostView. Firstly, a displatckeyEvent event is monitored in a parent container (a Launcher container) to judge a direction key value pressed by a current user through a remote controller, if the direction key value is pressed downwards, whether a currently focused child control is on the edge of the container needs to be judged, and if the direction key value is pressed downwards, a focus is removed from a container corresponding to a Widget application; if not, the dispatckeyEvent is transferred to the next child control of the Widget application, so that the focus of the Widget application can be moved according to the keyEvent. The detection of the focus boundary is that a set of specifications is agreed between a developer of the smart television and a provider of the Widget, and whether a boundary switching condition is met is detected in the dispatckeyevent.
In implementation, in step 13, obtaining and displaying a view provided by the third-party server of the child control currently selected by the user from the third-party server, specifically including:
acquiring a view provided by the third-party server of the currently selected sub-control and display effect information of the view of the sub-control from the third-party server; and the number of the first and second groups,
and acquiring the view of the sub-control meeting the display effect information according to the acquired display effect information, and displaying the view of the sub-control.
The display effect information of the view of the sub-control describes the information of the display effect which needs to be satisfied by the view of the sub-control. Such as a magnification effect, a fade effect, etc.
