This application relates to the communications field, and specifically, to an information exchange method and a terminal.
A network social technology is shifting from a ‘nice-to-have’ tool in a workspace to a ‘must-have’ tool. Faced with an increasing pace of service change and increasing popularization of mobile office and web work, all companies need to leverage a more advanced social technology to maximize mobilization of employee capabilities and knowledge. Just as email accelerated enterprise development in the 1990s, a social network and a social technology are driving faster flow of knowledge and information within and across enterprises. When Adam Pisoni, Microsoft's general manager, talked about information exchange issues that today's enterprise users face, he said recently that the social technology is becoming a new productivity tool, and can more effectively consolidate information held by employees with different salaries across regions and departments.
The network social technology is applied to branches of an enterprise. In the social technology, a social media principle can be applied to a workspace, making it easier for enterprise employees to share files and information with colleagues and collaborate across departments and regions. Unlike the consumer-oriented network social technology, an enterprise social technology provides employees with a secure workspace for sharing, allowing them to share information both inside and outside a company without location constraints.
A social discussion platform is a forum product, for example, a Branch platform. On the platform, a user can initiate a topic discussion, and another user can also apply, on the platform, to participate in the topic discussion and express an opinion on the topic discussion. If a topic initiator considers that an opinion of a topic discussion applicant has reference significance to the topic discussion, the topic initiator accepts the application, and displays the opinion of the user in a topic discussion group. For another example, if a topic discussion is implemented based on a sub-function of chat software, the sub-function needs to rely on a function of the chat software.
However, because the Branch platform uses an invite-review manner for a topic participant, it is unable to quickly find an appropriate topic participant, and real-time performance is relatively poor. In addition, a discussion platform based on a sub-function of chat software needs to rely on resources of the chat software itself, and is presented in a manner of a chat group or group chatting. In this case, a topic initiator needs to select topic participants one by one, and due to a chat manner of chat software, a current discussion topic is unknown if chat content is not viewed for a period of time, resulting in relatively poor communication convenience.
Embodiments of this application provide an information exchange method and a terminal, so as to resolve the following problems: A topic discussion cannot be initiated in real time, it is complex to add a topic participant, and real-time performance of topic communication is relatively poor.
A first aspect of the embodiments of this application provides an information exchange method. The method includes: first determining target content in a current interface according to an operation instruction entered by a topic initiator for the current interface, that is, obtaining the target content directly or indirectly from the current interface; then, determining a discussion topic title based on the target content, and setting up a topic discussion group; then, adding, to the discussion group based on the target content and/or the discussion topic title, a topic participant in a topic discussion group associated with the target content and/or the discussion topic title, where the association may be, for example, that the topic participant has participated in a similar topic discussion; then, receiving discussion content entered by the topic initiator and/or the topic participant, and displaying the discussion content.
It can be learned that during topic initiation, complex topic initiation setting is not required and it is only required that an operation be performed on the current interface to obtain the target content in the current interface; the discussion topic title can be determined based on the target content, and the topic discussion group can be set up without requiring a complex process of setting up a topic discussion group; and in addition, during adding of a topic participant, a corresponding topic participant is added based on the target content and/or the discussion topic title. Both the generation process and a member addition process are automatically performed by a topic discussion system. Therefore, efficiency in generating a topic discussion group is high, real-time performance of a topic discussion is high, and an operation is easy to perform.
In some embodiments, the determining target content in a current interface according to an operation instruction entered by a topic initiator for the current interface may be: capturing a part of the current interface directly according to the operation instruction; and performing content recognition on the captured part of the current interface to obtain the target content. This manner is easy to operate, and it is convenient to initiate a topic discussion.
In some embodiments, the current interface is a network web interface. In this case, a manner of determining a discussion topic title based on the target content may be: first obtaining a network address of a web interface corresponding to the target content; then performing matching for a keyword in the network address; and if determining that the network address includes a preset first keyword, determining the topic discussion title based on the first keyword.
In some embodiments, a hyperlink area is r configured in a topic discussion interface of the topic discussion group. The hyperlink area is used to store the network address of the web interface, and the network address is further displayed in the hyperlink area. This setting can enable a member of the topic discussion group to quickly view the interface that is existing when the topic initiator performs screen capturing, so as to quickly know a topic discussion.
In some embodiments, a manner of adding a topic participant to the topic discussion group may be: determining, based on the target content, a topic participant who wants to participate in the topic discussion group. Specifically, the manner includes: first determining a second keyword based on the target content; then searching for a historical topic discussion group in which the topic initiator has participated; matching information about the historical topic discussion group with the second keyword; and when finding that the historical topic discussion group has content corresponding to the second keyword, adding a topic participant in the historical topic discussion group to the topic discussion group.
In some embodiments, a manner of adding a topic participant to the topic discussion group may be: adding a topic participant to the topic discussion group based on the discussion topic title. Specifically, the manner includes: first determining a corresponding third keyword based on the discussion topic title; then searching for a historical topic discussion group in which the topic initiator has participated; matching information about the historical topic discussion group with the third keyword; and when the historical topic discussion group has content corresponding to the third keyword, adding a topic participant in the historical topic discussion group to the topic discussion group.
In some embodiments, a manner of adding a topic participant to the topic discussion group may be: adding a topic participant to the topic discussion group based on both the topic discussion title and the target content. Specifically, the manner includes: first determining a second keyword based on the target content; then determining a third keyword based on the discussion topic title; then matching both the second keyword and the third keyword with the historical topic discussion group; and adding, to the topic discussion group, each topic participant in a topic discussion group that matches the second keyword or the third keyword.
In some embodiments, a content presentation area used for displaying the discussion content is configured in the topic discussion interface of the topic discussion group, and a message queue used for storing the discussion content is further configured for the topic discussion group correspondingly. In this case, modification may be further performed on a topic participant in the topic discussion group; and when there is a newly added topic participant in the modified topic discussion group, the newly added topic participant may further view discussion content stored in the message queue in the content presentation area.
In some embodiments, when the discussion content in the message queue is updated, a content update prompt is further sent to all members in the topic discussion group. All the members include the topic initiator and the topic participant. In this way, each member can learn of latest discussion content in a timely manner.
In some embodiments, each topic discussion group is corresponding to an ID, the topic initiator is also corresponding to an ID, a topic discussion group ID and a topic initiator ID are associated with each other, and the topic initiator ID is further associated with a favorites list. The topic initiator ID is obtained through recognition of the topic initiator, and the topic discussion group ID is generated when the topic discussion group is generated. Therefore, the topic discussion group or discussion content entered by a topic participant in the topic discussion group may be further added to the favorites list, so that content in the favorites list can be directly viewed later.
A second aspect of the embodiments of this application further provides an information exchange method. The information exchange method includes: selecting a target topic discussion group from topic discussion groups in which a topic participant has participated, where the topic discussion group is set up by a topic initiator after the topic initiator determines a discussion topic title based on target content in an interface in which the topic initiator initiates the topic discussion; then entering discussion content in a topic discussion interface of the topic discussion group; and further viewing historical discussion content of the topic discussion group.
It can be learned that the topic discussion group is a topic discussion group set up after the topic initiator obtains target content in a current interface by performing an operation on the current interface and generates the discussion topic title based on the target content. Therefore, efficiency in generating the topic discussion group is high, real-time performance of a topic discussion is high, an operation is easy to perform, and it is also very convenient for the topic participant to participate in the topic discussion group.
In some embodiments, the topic discussion interface includes a topic discussion profile area, and the topic discussion profile area mainly displays topic participants, the target content, and the discussion topic title that are of the topic discussion group. Therefore, the target content in the topic discussion profile area may be selected and the target content may be displayed, or any topic participant of the topic participants may be selected and discussion content entered by the topic participant may be displayed. In this way, it is convenient to view discussion content of the topic discussion group.
In some embodiments, a content presentation area is further configured in the topic discussion interface. In term of data storage, a message queue used for storing the discussion content is further configured for the topic discussion group correspondingly. In this case, the viewing historical discussion content of the topic discussion group includes: viewing discussion content in the message queue actually in the content presentation area.
In some embodiments, if the discussion content in the message queue is updated, a content update prompt is sent to both the topic initiator and the topic participants in the topic discussion group, so that the topic initiator and the topic participants in the topic discussion group can learn of latest discussion content in a timely manner.
In some embodiments, a hyperlink area is further configured in the topic discussion interface, the hyperlink area mainly stores a network address, and the network address is a network address of an interface in which the topic initiator initiates a topic discussion. Therefore, the hyperlink area may be further selected to display an interface corresponding to a hyperlink in the hyperlink area.
In some embodiments, the topic discussion group is further corresponding to a topic discussion group ID, the topic participant is further corresponding to a topic participant ID, the topic participant ID is further associated with a favorites list, and the favorites list stores a topic discussion group, or discussion content entered by a topic participant in the topic discussion group. Therefore, the topic discussion group or a topic participant in the topic discussion group may be selected from the favorites list, and discussion content of the topic discussion group or discussion content of the topic participant in the topic discussion group may be viewed.
A third aspect of this application provides a terminal. The terminal includes at least one unit configured to perform the information exchange method according to the first aspect or any implementation of the first aspect.
A fourth aspect of this application provides a terminal. The terminal includes at least one unit configured to perform the information exchange method according to the second aspect or any implementation of the second aspect.
Still another aspect of this application provides a computer readable storage medium. The storage medium stores program code. When the program code is run by a terminal, the computer performs the methods according to the foregoing aspects. The storage medium includes but is not limited to a flash memory (flash memory), a hard disk drive (hard disk drive, HDD for short), or a solid-state drive (solid-state drive, SSD for short).
Still another aspect of this application provides a computer program product including an instruction. When the computer program product runs on a computer, the computer performs the methods according to the foregoing aspects.
Embodiments of this application provide an information exchange method and a terminal. A topic discussion group is set up in real time according to an operation instruction for a current interface, and a topic participant can be added based on target content and a discussion topic title. Therefore, efficiency in generating a topic discussion group is high, and real-time performance of a topic discussion is high.
To make persons skilled in the art understand the solutions in this application better, the following describes the embodiments of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application.
In the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application, the terms “first”, “second”, “third”, “fourth”, and so on (if existent) are intended to distinguish between similar objects but do not necessarily indicate a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data termed in such a way are interchangeable in proper circumstances so that the embodiments described herein can be implemented in other orders than the order illustrated or described herein. Moreover, the terms “include”, “have” and any other variants mean to cover the non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a list of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units, but may include other steps or units not expressly listed or inherent to such a process, method, product, or device.
According to an invite-review mechanism of a social discussion platform Branch, a user who wants to participate in a topic needs to proactively apply to participate in a discussion. Therefore, a topic initiator cannot quickly find a member suitable for participating in the discussion, and real-time performance of topic discussion participation is relatively poor. For a communications software platform, a discussion function is usually only a sub-function of communications software, and most resources of the communications software platform rely on an architecture of the communications software itself. For example, a topic discussion is also implemented in a manner of group chatting and is relatively functionally limited, members need to be selected one by one when being invited to a group, a member cannot view chat content of the group before participating in the group, a current discussion focus is unknown if content is not viewed for a period of time because the chat content is refreshed relatively quickly, and if it is required that speech content of a member in the group be learned of, a search function needs to be used for search. Due to these characteristics, this manner is not suitable for the topic discussion.
In view of this, the embodiments of this application provide an information exchange method and a related device to resolve the foregoing problems. Specifically,
The terminals in
The message logical processing end 105 is mainly configured to perform logical processing on reception and delivery of a message between each terminal and the data serving end 106. For example, the message logical processing end 105 determines that a message is sent by a terminal to the data serving end 106, and determines that the message is sent by the PC device 101. For another example, the message logical processing end 105 determines that a message is sent by the data serving end 106 to a terminal, and determines that the message needs to be sent to the mobile PC device 102.
The data serving end 106 is mainly configured to store content generated by a topic discussion group and content generated during a topic discussion. The content includes two parts. One part is temporary content, that is, content required only during a topic discussion. The other part is persistently stored content. This content may be a discussion topic title, discussion content, a topic initiator ID, a topic participant ID, target content, information about a current interface, and the like. This type of content needs to be read every time the topic discussion group starts a discussion.
It should be noted that data that needs to be persistently stored mainly includes but is not limited to user management information (for example, a user ID and a user name), an online status, a message ID, message content, a favorite information ID (which is used to uniquely identify a favorite message, and may be associated with a same piece of message content together with the message ID), a group ID, a group name (an example of the group name: participate in team requirement design discussion group 001), and the like.
The UI layer mainly includes a display module and an input module. Corresponding to a function of a terminal in
The service serving layer is corresponding to the message interface processing end 104 and the message logical processing end 105 in
For example, message interaction of a topic discussion group, for example, inputting and receiving discussion content and adding a topic participant to the topic discussion group, certainly further includes a message queue service. Discussion content input by each terminal needs to be queued by using the message queue service. In addition, the service serving layer further has a status synchronization service for synchronizing a status of each terminal, for example, determining a login status of each terminal, namely, determining the terminal is in an online state, a leaving state, an offline state, or another state, so that a topic participant and a topic initiator who are in different statuses are processed in different manners. For example, for an offline topic participant and an offline topic initiator, discussion content generated after they become offline last time is sent to them when they go online next time.
The resource layer is corresponding to the data serving end 106 in
The foregoing describes the information exchange system in the embodiments of this application. The following describes the information exchange method in the embodiments of this application from several different phases.
1. A topic initiator initiates a topic discussion.
301: Determine target content in a current interface according to an operation instruction entered by a topic initiator for the current interface.
The current interface is an interface displayed on a display or a touchscreen of a terminal. The interface may be a web interface, or may be another interface with character content. An operation on the interface is converted by an input device into an operation instruction, which is input into the terminal. The operation may be a screen capturing operation or a selection operation such as a gesture or a tap. Partial content in the current interface may be selected through these operations, and the partial content is used as the target content.
The following uses a social discussion tool that is used for a topic discussion as an example to describe a topic initiation operation. Refer to
For example, the social discussion tool that is used for a topic discussion of a topic discussion group is first started. A form of the social discussion tool is not limited only to a separate application program, or the social discussion tool may be in a form of a subprogram or plug-in of another application program. From a perspective of a category, the social discussion tool may be a local application program or plug-in, or may be a network application program or plug-in. The social discussion tool may be started in a plurality of manners. A starting manner varies for different terminals. For example, to enter the social discussion tool, a click is performed on a PC device by using a mouse, and a touchscreen is tapped or a touch gesture is performed on an intelligent terminal. An interface of the social discussion tool may be shown in
302: Determine a discussion topic title based on the target content, and set up a topic discussion group.
After the target content is determined, the discussion topic title needs to be determined, and the topic discussion group needs to be set up. Due to existence of the target content, the corresponding discussion topic title can be determined through processing of the target content or recognition of information in the current interface. When the discussion topic title is created, the topic discussion group may be set up.
For example, in
For example, if an obtained network address is “https://rnd-jad-caas.huawei.com:8443/workspace/9182dd509815460e9aedb09d5b0226f7/project/requirementDesign/537”, feature fields such as “jad”, “project”, and “requirement” can be obtained from the network address. Based on these feature fields, corresponding keywords such as “design discussion”, “requirement analysis”, “requirement design”, “test management”, “instance design”, and “environment management” may be found. In this way, a discussion topic title may be generated based on the keywords, for example, “requirement analysis discussion”.
It should be noted that there is further a hyperlink area in the interface of the social discussion tool. When a network address is obtained, the network address is stored in the hyperlink area, so that a member of a topic discussion group views, through hyperlink, a current interface in which a topic discussion is initiated.
303: Add a topic participant to the topic discussion group based on the target content and/or the discussion topic title.
It can be learned that after the discussion topic title is generated and the topic discussion group is set up, the topic participant needs to be added to the topic discussion group. In this embodiment of this application, a topic discussion party is added mainly based on the target content and/or the discussion topic title, and a corresponding topic participant is selected to participate in the topic discussion group. During this process, a logical processing service module matches the following content with all associated groups of the topic initiator: the target content and each scenario keyword that is generated when the discussion topic title is generated based on the target content, or the target content and the discussion topic title itself, or certainly the topic discussion title itself. If a matching group is found, a member in the group is added to the generated topic discussion group as a topic participant.
For example, the third manner in a description of step 302 is still used for description. After the scenario keywords such as “design discussion”, “requirement analysis”, “requirement design”, “test management”, “instance design” and “environment management” are obtained, a group that matches both the topic initiator ID and these scenario keywords is searched for in the data serving end. If a matching group is found, a member in the group is added to the topic discussion group as a topic participant.
It should be noted that after adding the topic participant, the topic initiator may further increase or decrease a quantity of members in the topic discussion group. There is a plurality of addition manners. For example, a member in a group associated with the topic initiator may be directly selected to participate in the topic discussion group, or a friend of the topic participant may be selected to participate in the topic discussion group, or a topic participant ID is entered to search for a topic participant, and the topic participant is added to the topic discussion group. To decrease a quantity of topic participants, a member may be directly deleted from the topic discussion group.
For another example, if a current interface to be recognized is not a web interface but a mail tool interface or a WORD office interface. For example, for a mail interface, during adding of a member of a topic discussion group, a mail sender, a mail receiver, a carbon copy recipient, and the like in the mail interface may be directly recognized and added to a topic discussion group. Certainly, content of a mail body may be further recognized, a scenario keyword may be obtained in the foregoing manner, and more topic participants may be added based on the scenario keyword. For another example, when the interface is the WORD office interface, an author, a modifier, an editor, and the like recorded in a current WORD file may be recognized and added to a topic discussion group as topic participants. Certainly, a body of the WORD file may be further recognized, a scenario keyword may be obtained in the foregoing manner, and more topic participants may be added based on the scenario keyword.
304: Receive discussion content entered by the topic initiator and/or the topic participant, and display the discussion content.
After the topic discussion group is generated and the topic participant is added, a topic discussion may be performed. The social discussion tool receives the discussion content entered by the topic initiator and/or the topic participant. The discussion content is not limited to text, and may include rich media content, that is, content such as two-dimensional and three-dimensional animations, images, and sounds. The content enriches topic discussion content. In this step, an input module in
It should be noted that after the discussion content is entered, the information processing module reads a discussion topic ID and the topic participant and the topic initiator in the topic discussion group, and sends the entered discussion content to the topic participant and the topic initiator in the topic discussion group. Certainly, if a topic participant or the topic initiator in the topic discussion group is in an offline state during a discussion, a message queue service module stores discussion content in a message queue in a form of an offline message, so that when an offline member goes online, the message queue service sends the discussion content stored in the message queue to the member as an offline message.
It should be noted that the topic initiator ID may be further associated with a favorites list, and the favorites list stores the topic discussion group or discussion content entered by a topic participant in the topic discussion group. It can be learned that for a topic participant that participates in a plurality of topic discussion groups or for a topic initiator, an interested topic or an interested member in a topic discussion group may be collected in the favorites list, so that a topic participant in these topic discussion groups or a topic discussion group obtains a content update prompt after sending discussion content, and certainly, the topic initiator can also quickly locate an interested topic discussion group or topic participant.
It can be learned that during topic initiation performed in a manner shown in
2. A topic participant participates in a topic discussion. The foregoing describes a process of setting up a topic discussion group. The following describes a process of viewing and participating in a topic discussion group.
501: Select a target topic discussion group from topic discussion groups in which a topic participant has participated.
The topic discussion group is set up by a topic initiator after the topic initiator determines a discussion topic title based on information or target content in an interface in which the topic initiator initiates a topic discussion. The interface is an interface displayed on a display or a touchscreen of a terminal. The interface may be a web interface, or may be another interface with character content. The target content in the interface is determined by a social discussion tool according to an entered operation instruction for the interface. Specifically, an operation on the interface is converted by an input device into an operation instruction, which is input into the terminal. The operation may be a screen capturing operation or a selection operation such as a gesture or a tap. Partial content in the current interface may be selected through these operations, and the partial content is used as the target content.
The following still uses a social discussion tool as an example to describe a process in which a topic participant participates in a topic discussion. Refer to
For example, the topic participant first starts the social discussion tool. A form of the social discussion tool is not limited only to a separate application program, or the social discussion tool may be in a form of a subprogram or plug-in of another application program. From a perspective of a category, the social discussion tool may be a local application program or plug-in, or may be a network application program or plug-in. After starting the social discussion tool, the topic participant can enter a main interface of the discussion tool in a manner shown in
It should be noted that when the hypertext link in the area 604 in
502: Enter discussion content in a topic discussion interface of the topic discussion group.
After the topic discussion group is selected, discussion content about a topic may be entered and sent in the area 606 in
503: View historical discussion content of the topic discussion group.
In addition to performing a topic discussion by using step 502, the topic participant may view the historical discussion content of the topic discussion group. There is a plurality of viewing manners. In a manner, the topic participant may view the historical discussion content by selecting the area 605 in
It can be learned that when participating in the topic discussion, the topic participant directly chooses, in the main interface of the discussion tool, to enter one of the topic discussion groups in which the topic participant has participated, and an interface of the topic discussion group includes four parts, namely, the topic discussion profile area, the hyperlink area, the content presentation area, and the topic discussion editing area. Through appropriate arrangement of functions of the four areas, the topic participant can quickly learn of the topic initiation background and the historical discussion content and latest discussion content of the topic discussion, and therefore can quickly participate in the topic discussion in real time.
The foregoing describes the following phases in the information exchange method in the embodiments of this application: a phase in which the topic initiator sets up the topic discussion group and a phase in which the topic participant participates in the topic discussion. The following describes another function of the topic discussion group in the information exchange method in this application. As shown in
First, a topic initiator or a topic participant enters a topic discussion tool as a user of the topic discussion tool by performing an operation in a web interface, selects a related topic discussion group in an interface of the discussion tool, and enters a topic discussion group details interface of the topic discussion group. For the selection and entering processes, refer to a description of step 501 in the embodiment shown in
For example, a topic participant is selected, and all discussion content of the topic participant is ticked, as shown in the area 703. If a check box after a member is checked, this piece of discussion content is selected as an alternative part of meeting minutes content by default. When a “set as minutes” button in the area 704 is tapped, the selected content is used as the minutes content. Then, the minutes content may be sent to each member in the topic discussion group. In addition, key discussion content may be further manually recognized, and minutes are generated and sent to a specified member or all participating members. In addition, a topic initiator may hide and delete all topic discussion content of a member in a topic discussion group. In the meeting minutes preparation process, after an input module receives an operation instruction of preparing meeting minutes that is sent by the topic initiator, an information processing service module sends a query request to a data serving end. The data serving end filters discussion content of the topic by using a favorite message ID. A logical processing service module extracts information from message content filtered out by the data serving end. A display module displays the extracted information in the interface. In this way, the discussion content is collected.
In addition, after the minutes are generated, a sender may be further specified, and the minutes may be automatically sent to all members of the topic discussion group by a mail sending system. Before a mail is sent, a sender may manually edit and process the favorites list by using a function button in the area 704. For example, only discussion content of a topic discussion participating member is viewed. Certainly, a discussion record of a person may be deleted. Not only the minutes are sent to all the members, but also a member whose minutes are to be sent or the minutes content itself may be filtered. In other words, only discussion content of a member may be selected to be sent as the minutes content. For example, only discussion content of a topic discussion initiator is sent. For another example, the minutes are sent only to some selected members of the topic discussion group.
