Detailed Description

Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While certain embodiments of the present disclosure have been shown in the accompanying drawings, it is to be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein, but are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of the present disclosure are for illustration purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure.

It should be understood that the various steps recited in the method embodiments of the present disclosure may be performed in a different order and/or performed in parallel. Furthermore, method embodiments may include additional steps and/or omit performing the illustrated steps. The scope of the present disclosure is not limited in this respect.

The term "including" and variations thereof as used herein are intended to be open-ended, i.e., including, but not limited to. The term "based on" is based at least in part on. The term "one embodiment" means "at least one embodiment"; the term "another embodiment" means "at least one additional embodiment"; the term "some embodiments" means "at least some embodiments. Related definitions of other terms will be given in the description below.

It should be noted that references to "one", "a plurality" and "a plurality" in this disclosure are intended to be illustrative rather than limiting, and those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that "one or more" is intended to be understood as "one or more" unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

The files in the disk space can be divided into a program core file, a cache file and a user file from the point of view of attribution of the files. The program core file is a file which can cause the application program to be unable to run after being deleted; the cache file is a file which is required to be generated by the normal operation of the application program, such as a log file, an advertisement file, an application setting parameter and the like; the user file is an intermediate file or a final file generated during use of the application program, such as a photograph, an editing draft, a video clip material, and the like.

From the application program use point of view, new use of new types of files will continuously appear, and the management scope should be included. Meanwhile, the currently useful file may be discarded and deleted. Thus, files in disk space can also be divided into files that are currently managed, files that need to be managed in the future, and files that have been used in the past but have been discarded.

In the related art, the existing management method of the disk space can manage the cache file of the application program, but cannot manage the user file for the user. The file management scope of the application is also determined when the application is installed, and new files generated in the future and useless files discarded in the future cannot be managed. Therefore, the existing file management method cannot adjust the file management range in real time, and thus cannot manage all files in the disk space.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for managing a disk space, in which information of a management rule of the disk space is updated by sending a management protocol of the disk space, and then a target file in files stored in the disk space is deleted based on the information of the management rule of the disk space. Before obtaining information such as disk space information and user files, user authorization is required to be obtained, and subsequent related operations are executed after the user authorization. By the disk space management method, the management rule of the disk space can be adjusted in real time, so that all files in the disk space can be managed.

The following describes an application scenario of the disk space management method according to the present disclosure.

Fig. 1 is an application scenario schematic diagram of a method for managing disk space according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the terminal device 101 may run an application program, and when the terminal device 101 needs to manage a disk space, a request may be sent to the server 102 to acquire the latest management protocol of the disk space. After receiving the management protocol of the disk space sent by the server 102, the terminal device 101 analyzes the information of the management rule of the disk space from the disk space management protocol, so as to delete the target file in the file stored in the disk space based on the information of the management rule of the disk space.

The terminal device 101 may be a device with a disk space, such as a tablet computer (pad), a computer with a wireless transceiving function, a Virtual Reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (augmented reality, AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal in an industrial control (industrial control), a wireless terminal in a self driving (self driving), a wireless terminal in a teleoperation (remote medical surgery), a wireless terminal in a smart grid (smart grid), a wireless terminal in a smart home (smart home), or the like. In the embodiment of the disclosure, the device for implementing the function of the terminal may be the terminal, or may be a device capable of supporting the terminal to implement the function, for example, a chip system, and the device may be installed in the terminal. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the chip system may be formed by a chip, and may also include a chip and other discrete devices.

Server 102 may be, but is not limited to, a single web server, a server group of multiple web servers, or a cloud based cloud computing consisting of a large number of computers or web servers. The cloud computing is a distributed computing type, and is a super virtual computer consisting of a group of loosely coupled computers.

It should be understood that the application scenario of the technical solution of the present disclosure may be the scenario in fig. 1, but is not limited thereto, and may also be applied to other scenarios requiring disk space management.

It may be understood that the above method for managing a disk space may be implemented by the apparatus for managing a disk space provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, where the apparatus for managing a disk space may be part or all of a device, for example, a terminal device or a processor of a terminal device.

The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following embodiments may be combined with each other, and some embodiments may not be repeated for the same or similar concepts or processes.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart of a method for managing disk space according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The execution body of the embodiment is a terminal device, and the embodiment relates to a process of deleting a file in a disk space. The management method of the disk space comprises the following steps:

S201: and receiving a management protocol of the disk space sent by the server, wherein the management protocol of the disk space is used for managing files in the disk space.

In the present disclosure, when a terminal device needs to manage a disk space, a management protocol of the disk space may be requested to a server, and then, the latest management protocol of the disk space is transmitted to the terminal device by the server to manage files in the disk space.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the management protocol of the disk space may be updated in real time by an administrator, so as to adjust the management rule of the file in the disk space in time.

It should be understood that embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the content of the management protocol of the disk space, and in some embodiments, the management protocol of the disk space may include information of the protocol total switch, the protocol version, and various management rules of the disk space.

S202: and analyzing the management protocol of the disk space, and determining the information of the management rule of the disk space.

In this step, after the terminal device receives the management protocol of the disk space, the information of the management rule of the disk space may be parsed from the management protocol of the disk space.

It should be understood that the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to how to parse the management protocol of the disk space, and any protocol parsing manner may be adopted or indicated by the management protocol of the disk space.

In some embodiments, the information of the management rules of the disk space includes: the scan path of the disk space, the directory of the files stored in the disk space, the classification of the files stored in the disk space, and the deletion level of the files stored in the disk space.

It should be understood that the directory of the file stored in the disk space is used to indicate the managed file in the disk space, and the scan path of the disk space is used to determine the storage locations respectively corresponding to the managed file. The deletion level of the file stored in the disk space is used to determine the deletion mode of the stored file.

The classification of files stored in disk space may include program core files, cache files, and user files, among others. The program core file is a file which can cause the application program to fail to operate normally after the program core file is really, and in practical application, deletion of the program core file should be avoided. The cache file is a file generated when the application program runs, for example, a log file, an advertisement cache, an application program setting parameter, and the like. The user file is a file generated by a user when using the application program, and may be an intermediate file or a final file, for example, a photograph, an editing draft, a video clip material, or the like.

The deletion levels of the files stored in the disk space include a first deletion level, a second deletion level, a third deletion level, and a fourth deletion level. The files of the first deletion level are files which are forbidden to be deleted, the files of the second deletion level are files which are authorized to be deleted by the service of the application program, the files of the third deletion level are files which are authorized to be deleted by the user, and the files of the fourth deletion level are files which are automatically deleted.

In other embodiments, the information of the management rule of the disk space may further include an identifier of the manager setting the management rule of the disk space.

It should be noted that, the information of the management rule of the disk space may be represented by different fields in the management protocol of the disk space.

S203: and scanning the disk space and determining files stored in the disk space.

In this step, after the terminal device parses out the information of the management rule of the disk space, the disk space may be scanned through a scanning path in the information of the management rule of the disk space, to determine the file stored in the disk space.

In some embodiments, after determining the files stored in the disk space, the terminal device may further perform statistics on the files stored in the disk space according to an association relationship between the files stored in the disk space.

The association relationship is a relationship between files stored in different positions when the same service is executed.

For example, if a record exists in the database in addition to the generated file, the association relationship exists between the generated file of the user draft and the generated record in the database, and statistics can be performed together.

For example, if the "filter" file is composed of three files together, there is an association relationship between the three files that compose the "filter" file, and statistics can be performed together.

It should be appreciated that counting files stored in disk space may include counting the size and number of files.

S204: and deleting the target file in the files stored in the disk space according to the information of the management rule of the disk space.

In this step, after the terminal device determines the file stored in the disk space, the target file in the file stored in the disk space may be deleted according to the information of the management rule of the disk space.

It should be understood that, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, there is no limitation on how to delete a target file in a file stored in a disk space according to information of a management rule of the disk space, in some embodiments, a terminal device may first determine a type of the file stored in the disk space, and if the file stored in the disk space is a user file, parse the user file, and determine information of the user file. Then, the user files are displayed on a disk space management interface of the application program, and a deleting instruction input by the user is received, wherein the deleting instruction is used for indicating the target files selected in the user files. And finally, deleting the target file by the terminal equipment. If the file stored in the disk space is a cache file, the terminal device can determine the target file in the cache file according to the service time of the cache file, so as to delete the target file.

The information of the user file may include a resource name, a size, a last use time, a thumbnail, and the like of the user file.

Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a first interface of an application according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a second interface of an application provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, and fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a third interface of an application provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, the first interface shown in fig. 3, on which the disk space management control is displayed, may be opened by a setup button of the application, and the application may jump to the second interface shown in fig. 4 by clicking on the disk space management control. The second interface displays the use condition of the disk space, and according to the type of the file, a management control of the user file and a management control of the cache file are respectively arranged. By clicking the management control of the user file and the third interface shown in fig. 5, the third interface displays the resource name, the size and the last use time of the user file, and the user can use the selected user file as the target file to input a deletion instruction to the terminal device, so that the target file is deleted.

It should be noted that, the cache file may be automatically deleted by an application program in the terminal device, and for example, if the latest use time of the cache file is 7 months ago, that is, the unused time of the cache file is longer than 6 months, it may be determined that the cache file is unused for a long time, and may be automatically deleted.

In other embodiments, the terminal device may delete the target file in the files stored in the disk space according to the deletion level of the files stored in the disk space.

Illustratively, if the stored file is at the first deletion level, deletion of the file is prohibited in any case. If the stored file is the second deletion level, an external page can be provided, and deletion can be performed after service authorization of an external application program. If the stored file is the third deletion level, the user needs to click or confirm the authorization to delete the file, for example, the file draft generated by the user. If the stored file is the fourth deletion level, deletion can be directly performed without confirmation, and the running of the application program is not affected.

In some embodiments, when deleting the target file, the terminal device may further determine a file having an association relationship with the target file, so as to delete the file having the association relationship with the target file.

A description will be given below of a management protocol for how the server generates a disk space.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, different management rules can be allowed to be implemented by the application program through different interfaces, and then the different management rules are registered in the server, so that a management protocol of the disk space is generated. Exemplary, fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of management rule registration provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, where, as shown in fig. 6, scanning rules, parsing rules, and deleting rules in a management protocol of a disk space may be customized, and registration is performed through a delegated registry. Wherein, the scanning rule allows more files to be included, and statistics is carried out to form an item; the parsing rules allow the application program to specify information such as details, icons and the like of the items for display; the deletion rule sequence executes additional rules, such as deleting files of specific associations, at the time of deletion.

The embodiment of the disclosure provides a management method for a disk space, which includes the steps of firstly, receiving a management protocol for the disk space sent by a server, wherein the management protocol for the disk space is used for managing files in the disk space; secondly, analyzing a management protocol of the disk space, and determining information of management rules of the disk space; thirdly, scanning the disk space and determining files stored in the disk space; and finally, deleting the target file in the files stored in the disk space according to the information of the management rule of the disk space.
