As described above, the related art has a problem that the recognition degree of the chat information related to the group chat topic is poor. In view of this, the present disclosure provides an instant messaging method, by which topic information and chat information corresponding to group chat topics can be independently displayed in different display styles, so that the identification degree of the chat information is increased, a user can conveniently and accurately locate the group chat information corresponding to each group chat topic, the corresponding group chat information included in the group chat topics is more traceable, and the group chat information can be more regularly displayed and arranged on an instant messaging group chat interface.

Fig. 1 is an interaction diagram of a method for instant messaging according to an exemplary embodiment, and the following describes a technical solution in the embodiment of the present disclosure with reference to fig. 1.

In step S11, the first client receives the chat information, determines first group chat session information from the chat information, and transmits the first group chat session information to the computer device.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when a user corresponding to a first client wishes to participate in a group chat topic, the user may input specific chat information on a terminal device (e.g., a mobile phone) used by the user correspondingly, that is, the first client (e.g., a mobile phone), where the chat information is, for example: "go o, go to ball at weekend. "so that the first client can obtain the chat information and perform predetermined processing on the chat information, thereby obtaining first group chat session information, wherein the first group chat session information at least comprises the chat information, and further, the first client can send the first group chat session information to the computer device.

In a specific implementation process, the first group chat session information may include identification information of the first client and chat information, and thus, the device receiving the first group chat session information may determine that the chat information is sent by the first client through the identification information. The first group chat session information may also include identification information of the target computer device and chat information, such that the chat information may be accurately transmitted. Of course, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first group chat session information may further include other information, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure. For convenience of understanding, the computer device is described as a server hereinafter.

In step S12, the server receives the first group chat session information sent by the first client.

In step S13, the server determines that the first group chat session information belongs to a predetermined topic.

In the disclosed embodiment, after the first client sends the first group chat session information to the server, the server may receive the first group chat session information sent by the first client and then determine whether the first group chat session information belongs to any topic.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as described above, a plurality of group chat topics may be generated in any one group of the IM product, and when a user wishes to join a specific group chat topic, the user may determine a topic from the group chat topics established in the instant messaging group, that is, the topic is a predetermined topic. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, for convenience of description, a specific group chat topic that a user wishes to join is referred to as a predetermined topic, and it may also be that the computer device autonomously determines the predetermined topic, for example, determines the predetermined topic according to a type analysis of historical participation of the user in the group chat topic.

To facilitate understanding of those skilled in the art, the following lists several possible ways to describe how to determine that the chat information in the first group chat session information belongs to the predetermined topic, and it should be understood that the following examples are only illustrative and are not limiting to the embodiments of the present disclosure, and other determining ways may be adopted in the specific implementation process besides the ways listed below, which are not exhaustive herein.

In one possible implementation, first information sent by a first client is received, and then the chat information in the first group chat session information is determined to belong to a predetermined topic according to the first information, wherein the first information is determined by the client according to a first preset operation performed on the topic information.

The first method is as follows: in a specific implementation process, when it is determined that the topic information of the predetermined topic is displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface of the first client, the user may perform a selection operation on the topic information displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface, where the selection operation may be to click the topic information of the predetermined topic, or to double click the topic information of the predetermined topic, or to perform other preset operations. That is, when the selection operation is an operation performed with respect to the topic information displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface, after the user performs the selection operation with respect to the topic information of the predetermined topic, the first client may obtain the first preset operation, which is the selection operation performed with respect to the topic information of the predetermined topic, so that it may be determined that the user wishes to join the predetermined topic.

Further, after the first client obtains the selection operation, the first information may be determined according to the selection operation and then transmitted to the server, so that the server may determine that the chat information belongs to the predetermined topic according to the first information. By the method, the topic information can be directly selected in the instant messaging group chat interface, so that the time of a user is saved, each chat information related to the topic has traceability, and the accuracy of adding the preset topic is improved.

For example, referring to fig. 2, if the topic that the user wishes to join is "weekend mountain climbing", and it is determined that topic information for the topic "weekend mountain climbing" is displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface, that is, topic information corresponding to chat information for the topic "weekend mountain climbing" is displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface, the user can directly click the topic information for "weekend mountain climbing".

The second method comprises the following steps: in a specific implementation process, when it is determined that the topic information of the predetermined topic is not displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface, the user may input a topic trigger identifier in a chat input box displayed in advance, specifically, the topic trigger identifier may be a preset identifier such as a symbol, # and the like, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Further, according to the triggering of the topic triggering identification character, topic information is displayed in the chat input box. The first client may then obtain the first group chat session information and the trigger operation at the same time, and may then generate first information according to the trigger operation, and send the first information and the first group chat session information to the server at the same time, so that the server may determine that the chat information belongs to the predetermined topic according to the first information.

In such a way, the situation that the topic information of the preset topic is not displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface is fully considered, the operation that the user searches the topic information of the preset topic in the instant messaging group chat interface is reduced, the user time is saved, the misoperation on other chat topics is avoided as much as possible, and the accuracy of the selected topic information is further improved.

For example, referring to fig. 3, the user may input a topic trigger in a pre-displayed chat input box, then the terminal device may display topic information in the chat input box according to the trigger of the topic trigger character, and then the user may input chat information in the chat input box.

The third method comprises the following steps: in a specific implementation process, the first client may further obtain a first preset operation performed on chat information displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface, then the first client may display the group chat topics already created in the instant messaging group according to the first preset operation, and then the user may select a predetermined topic, for example, click a topic name of the predetermined topic, so that the first client may call the topic information of the predetermined topic according to the click operation, thereby determining the topic information.

In the scheme disclosed by the embodiment of the disclosure, the user can be supported to determine the preset topic to which the chat information belongs from the main aiming at the sent chat information, a plurality of topic adding modes are provided, and the user experience is improved.

For example, as shown in fig. 4, the user may perform a first preset operation on the chat message "i also go" so as to display predetermined topics "friday crime" and "weekend hill climbing" that have been created in the instant messaging group chat on the instant messaging group chat interface, so that the user may select the topic of "weekend hill climbing" and then click the topic name of the predetermined topic, i.e., "weekend hill climbing", so that the terminal device may call the topic information of the predetermined topic according to the aforementioned click operation, thereby determining that the content of the topic information of "i also go" is "weekend hill climbing".

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, topic information can be determined in all of the three ways, so that a user can quickly join in the discussion of a predetermined topic. In a specific implementation process, the mode of determining the topic information can be flexibly selected according to the current position of the topic information of the predetermined topic, so that the flexibility of a scheme is increased.

In a possible implementation, the chat information may be semantically analyzed to obtain an analysis result, and it is determined that the chat information belongs to the predetermined topic according to the analysis result.

In a specific implementation process, when the server receives only the first group chat session information, semantic analysis may be performed on the chat information in the first group chat session information, for example, the received chat information is: "walk and play ball", and then perform semantic analysis on the chat information, and may determine that the chat information belongs to a predetermined topic of "play ball on weekend".

In step S14, the server determines display information of the first group chat session information, the display information including a first display style of chat information in the first group chat session information and a second display style of topic information of a predetermined topic associated with the first group chat session information, the first display style and the second display style being different display styles.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the server determines that the first group chat session information belongs to the predetermined topic, display information of the first group chat session information may also be determined. In a specific implementation process, the display style may be determined according to a preset display policy, or the display style of the chat information or the display style of the topic information may be determined first, and then the display style of the topic information or the chat information is determined correspondingly, which is a specific determination manner.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, a first display style corresponding to chat information and a second display style of topic information may be determined, where the first display style and the second display style are different display styles. Specifically, at least one display parameter of the first display style and the second display style is different, and the display parameter includes at least one of a font style, a font size, and a text color. That is, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first display style and the second display style may be different in only one display parameter, or may be different in a plurality of display parameters, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited.

In a specific implementation process, the first display style and the second display style may be display styles of the same display parameters except that the font styles are different, for example, the first display style adopts an a font style, and the second display style adopts a B font style, that is, the display style of the chat information is the a font style, and the display style of the topic information is the B font style. The first display style and the second display style may also be display styles with different font styles and different font sizes, and of course, the first display style and the second display style may also be display styles with different font styles, different font sizes, and different text colors, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the chat information and the topic information in the instant messaging chat interface can be accurately distinguished according to the difference between the first display style corresponding to the chat information and the second display style corresponding to the topic information.

In step S15, the server determines second group chat session information from the first group chat session information and the display information, and transmits the second group chat session information to at least one second client communicating with the first client.

In step S16, the second client receives second group chat session information transmitted by the server, the second group chat session information being associated with the predetermined topic.

In step S17, the second client determines display information of the second group chat session information and displays the second group chat session information according to the display information.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the server may determine the second group chat session information according to the first group chat session information and the display information, that is, the server may combine the first group chat session information and the display information and then transmit the combined information, that is, the second group chat information, to at least one second client in communication with the first client, so that the at least one second client may be caused to display the chat information in the first display style and the topic information in the second display style. In this way, the instant messaging group chat interface of the second client communicating with the first client can display the chat information in the first display style and display the topic information in the second display style.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second client may be understood as each client corresponding to each account in the group in which the chat information sent by the first client is located, and the first client.

In the present disclosure, when the second client may receive the second group chat session information, the second client may then determine, after receiving the second group chat session information, a predetermined topic associated with the second group chat session information, determine display information of the second group chat session information, and then display the second group chat session information according to the display information.

In an alternative embodiment, the display information of the first group chat session information may further include a first display position for determining the chat information and a second display position for determining the topic information, and the first display position and the second display position are different display areas, so that when the display information is received by the second client, the chat information may be displayed at the first display position and the topic information may be displayed at the second display position.

In the disclosed embodiment, referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is another instant messaging group chat interface shown according to an exemplary embodiment, after determining the topic information of the chat information "i also go" in the instant messaging group chat, the chat information "i also go" and the determined topic information of "weekend mountain climbing" may be displayed in association to the instant messaging group chat interface, that is, the topic information is displayed in the first display position and "i also go" in the second display position in the instant messaging group chat interface.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, please refer to fig. 6, fig. 6 is another instant messaging group chat interface shown according to an exemplary embodiment, and fig. 6 exemplifies that the display graph of the topic information is a rectangle, and the topic content is "weekend mountain climbing". When a user inputs contents in a chat input box displayed on an instant messaging group chat interface: "do not want to", the instant messaging group chat interface displays the topic information in the first display position and displays the "do not want to do" in the second display position, and fig. 6 shows the topic information in the upper left of the chat information as an example.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the topic information and the chat information can be independently and separately displayed through the regional associated display of the first display position and the second display position, so that the contents of the topic information and the chat information can be more accurately and respectively determined, and the display position of the original reply message cannot be influenced. Further, please continue to refer to fig. 6, because the "weekend mountain climbing" and "do not want to go" are separately displayed, the "weekend" is prevented from being used as the topic information, and the "mountain climbing does not want to go" is used as the mistaken interpretation of the chat information, so that the accurate judgment of the user on the chat information and the topic information is improved to a certain extent, so that the user can more accurately know the predetermined topic to add the predetermined topic.

That is, in addition to the aforementioned distinction between the chat information and the topic information in the first display style and the second display style, the distinction of the display area is also increased. Further, because the chat information is displayed at the first display position, and the topic information is displayed at the second display position outside the first display position, that is, the topic information and the chat information can be independently and separately displayed through the associated display of the sub-areas of the first display position and the second display position, so that the respective message contents of the topic information and the chat information can be more accurately and respectively determined, and the original display position of the reply message (i.e., the chat information) in the instant messaging group chat interface is not affected. By the mode, the user can clearly know the preset topics corresponding to the chat information, and meanwhile, the normal display of the chat information of the user is not influenced. Moreover, because the topic information and the chat information are displayed separately, the probability that the topic information and the chat information are set together (for example, both the topic information and the chat information are displayed in the original display area of the chat information) is brought to the user to misread the message, for example, part of the content of the topic information is mistakenly interpreted as the chat information, so that the correctness of reading various messages can be improved, and the user experience of the user is improved.

In one possible implementation, when the user wishes to perform other operations on the predetermined topic, the user may perform a second preset operation on the topic information of the predetermined topic, so that the terminal device may obtain the second preset operation performed on the predetermined topic information, where the second preset operation may be long pressing the topic information of the predetermined topic, and may also be sliding the topic information of the predetermined topic to the right or left, and of course, may also be other preset operations.

After the terminal device receives the second preset operation, the terminal device may call a topic expansion function interface according to the second preset operation, and display the topic expansion function interface at a preset position of topic information relative to a predetermined topic, where the topic expansion function interface may include at least one function option, and the at least one function option has an editable attribute and a linkable attribute.

In a specific implementation process, the function options can be edited, for example, a search function according to user identification is added, a function of deleting created group chat topics in a viewing group is deleted, and the like. In addition, the chat messages can be linked to other display pages through function options, for example, the chat messages of the preset topics can be clicked and viewed in the instant messaging group chat page, and the chat messages of the preset topics can be displayed in a floating window mode, so that different requirements of different users can be met, and the use experience of the users is improved.

In the disclosed embodiment, please refer to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a topic function expansion interface shown according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, a topic function expansion page includes a view function and a search function, and other functions, wherein the view function includes viewing chat information of a predetermined topic, viewing created group chat topics in a group, viewing users participating in the predetermined topic; the search function includes searching for created group chat topics in a group, searching for users participating in a predetermined topic.

In one possible embodiment, referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a topic function extension interface shown according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 8, after the topic extension function interface is displayed, when a user performs a third preset operation on a function in the topic extension function interface, the terminal device may obtain a third preset operation on a function option in the topic extension function interface, and then display user identifications of all group chat participants participating in a predetermined topic according to the third preset operation. The user identifier may be an image identifier of the user, a nickname identifier of the user, or an image identifier and a nickname identifier of the user, and is described in fig. 8 with the image identifier of the user as the user identifier. In another possible embodiment, all chat information associated with the predetermined topic may also be displayed according to a third preset operation.

The display mode enables the user to accurately and clearly know the group chat participants of the predetermined topic, and therefore the user can conveniently reply to one of the group chat participants. Furthermore, all chat information related to the predetermined topic can be checked, so that the user can know the discussion degree of the predetermined topic, and the use experience of the user is improved.

In a possible implementation manner, it may be further determined whether the predetermined topic meets a preset condition, and when the preset condition is met, another temporary instant messaging group corresponding to the predetermined topic may be newly created, where group chat participants of the temporary instant messaging group only include all group chat participants of the predetermined topic, and specifically, the newly created instant messaging group includes all group chat participants participating in the predetermined topic and chat information associated with the predetermined topic.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of all group messages associated with the predetermined topic may be determined, then the number of all group messages associated with the predetermined topic is compared with a first preset number, and if the number of all group messages associated with the predetermined topic is greater than the first preset number, it is determined that the preset condition is satisfied. For example, the predetermined topic is "soccer game", the first preset number is 50, and when it is determined that the number of all group messages associated with the predetermined topic is 60, it is determined that the preset condition is satisfied.

Further, after determining that the condition is satisfied, another temporary instant communication group corresponding to the predetermined topic may be newly created, and the users participating in the "ball game" topic may view and reply to other messages participating in the "ball game" topic in the temporary instant communication group. Therefore, the chat requirements of users participating in the 'ball game' are met, the chat experience of other users not participating in the topic is not influenced, and the display of the instant messaging group is clearer.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when it is determined that the number of the chat messages associated with the predetermined topic in the predetermined time period (for example, 1 minute) is greater than the second preset number, which indicates that the user discussion participating in the group chat topic is fierce, it is determined that the preset condition is satisfied. That is, the needs of the users participating in the group chat topic are sufficiently considered, and the needs of other users not participating in the topic are also considered.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the number of all group chat participants participating in the predetermined topic is greater than a third preset number, it is determined that the preset condition is satisfied, in consideration of the number of all group chat participants participating in the predetermined topic. That is to say, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, whether to newly establish another temporary instant communication group corresponding to the predetermined topic is determined from two large aspects of the chat information related to the predetermined topic and the number of all group chat participants participating in the predetermined topic, so as to improve the user experience.

In a possible implementation example, the chat input box displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface further includes a removal association identifier, wherein the removal association identifier may be displayed in an area outside the chat input box, and when the user selects to remove the association identifier, only the chat information input by the user in the chat input box is displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface. That is to say, by operating the removal of the association identifier, the user can choose not to add the predetermined topic, thereby satisfying the user's requirement and improving the user experience.

For example, referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is another instant messaging group chat interface shown according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 9, the disassociation identifier may be an identifier with a specific shape of the topic content, or may also be an identifier with a specific shape, the disassociation identifier with a circle cross is illustrated in fig. 9, and when the user clicks the disassociation identifier, that is, the user selects the disassociation identifier, and then when the user inputs content in the chat input box, only chat information input in the chat input box by the user is displayed in the instant messaging group chat interface.
