Application scenarios overview

It is the application scenarios schematic diagram provided in an embodiment of the present invention for reading interactive approach with reference first to its is schemed.Including user Terminal 11 and e-book server 12.Wherein, e-book client can be installed, such as bean cotyledon reads visitor in the user terminal 11 Family end, Netease's cloud read client, caricature class client etc..User 10 can be by the client in the user terminal 11 to electricity Philosophical works server 12 asks e-book download request or the request of online reading e-book, and e-book server 12 is in response to user The request of terminal 11 provides e-book download service or the service of e-book online reading.If user 10 is to e-book server 12 send e-book download requests, then after the completion of e-book is downloaded, and to be downloaded to user terminal 11 local by opening by user 10 E-book is read.If online reading request, then electricity is opened in the request that e-book server 12 is sent according to user 10 Any chapters and sections in the philosophical works or e-book, provide the user online reading service.

Wherein, user terminal 11 and e-book server 12 can be communicatively coupled by communication network, and the network can be with For LAN, wide area network etc..User terminal 11 can be mobile phone, tablet personal computer, notebook computer, personal computer etc., electronics Book server 12 can provide e-book online reading or the server apparatus of download service to be any.

Controlled to realize according to time dimension in the behavior of user's reading electronic book, the embodiment of the present invention, Ke Yiyou E-book server safeguards being realized with reading duration for the user for each user.When it is implemented, can be by user Available reading duration be divided into two types according to different times of day, for example, the first kind read duration can hour Carry out timing for unit, Second Type reads duration can carry out timing in units of day, the first kind read duration according to The time of the actual reading electronic book in family is consumed, and Second Type is read duration and consumed in units of natural day, i.e., and the Two types are read in the term of validity of duration, and no matter whether user occurs reading behavior can gradually use up according to time of day.

It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, can judge whether user produces read electronic in accordance with the following methods The behavior of book：E-book can include following two parts content：Books details and the body of a book, wherein, books details refer to hold The page that e-book is introduced is carried, all essential informations of e-book, such as front cover, title, author, classification, content letter are generally comprised Jie, author profile etc.；The body of a book is the maximum part of accounting in e-book, contain the most crucial information of e-book and Viewpoint.Usual the body of a book includes several chapters and sections, and a chapter is divided into some sections again, and (section is a paragragh or several natures Section).When e-book client, which detects user, rests on the body of a book page, it may be determined that user generates wide and efficient reading Behavior, now, duration is read by the consumption first kind.Wherein, e-book client can be included in the body of a book Some characteristic informations judge whether user rests on the body of a book page, work as example, e-book client detects user and stopped The preceding page can determine that user rests on the body of a book page when including page turn over operation function button.

When it is implemented, the first kind, which reads duration, to read duration to be free, in order to improve e-book reading efficiency And reading effect, e-book server can preset getting the cycle for free reading duration, and limit each user every One gets the free reading duration size got number of times and got every time in the cycle.For example, e-book server can be advance The setting cycle of getting is daily, and the free reading duration number of times that can be got daily is once, the free reading duration got every time Size is 1 hour.Meanwhile, e-book server can also set the free reading duration got only to have in current get in the cycle Effect, if the cycle of getting is daily, user is got after free reading duration, and its term of validity is daily 24:00.By setting The first kind reads the term of validity of duration, can encourage and guide user to get reading electronic book in the cycle current, improve electricity Philosophical works reading efficiency and reading effect.Freely reading in the term of validity of duration, e-book client produces effective according to user The duration record consumption duration of reading behavior, and during consumption corresponding to e-book server report of user according to certain cycle Long, e-book server updates the residual time length of first kind reading time according to consumption duration.

In addition, e-book server can also limit same user gets free reading duration in same get in the cycle Number of times.Wherein, e-book server recognizes user by user's mark, wherein, user's mark is obtained when can be user's registration User account number, and the cell-phone number of user account number binding, identification card number, get it is free when reading duration using equipment Device identification etc., if any of which is identical, regards as same user.It is of course also possible to according to actual needs according to Any of the above recognizes user, and in this case, same user account number will not be recognized using equipment in same get in the cycle It is set to same user, similarly, different user account number will not be also identified as together using identical equipment in same get in the cycle One user etc., the embodiment of the present invention is to this without limiting.

Second Type is read duration and can given for user by the paying reading duration and e-book server for purchase of paying That send gives reading duration.The term of validity that Second Type reads duration can be controlled by the end time.When it is implemented, with Family can obtain reading duration of paying by paying certain expense, can also be according to by completing obtaining for e-book server settings Reading duration must be given.Paying reads duration and gives reading duration can be using day as unit timing.The paying that user obtains is read Read duration and give to read duration and can add up to update the end time that Second Type reads duration.For example, user exists 2017.4.20 pay day to have purchased to pay for 7 days and read duration, therefore, it can exist the deadline that Second Type reads duration Increase by 7 days on the basis of the current deadline, it is assumed that be on May 8th, 2017, after this, if user is by completing e-book The task of server settings obtains 3 days and gives reading duration, then the Second Type of the user reads the end time of duration Be updated on May 11st, 2017, i.e., at 11 days 24 May in 2017 before, user can reading electronic book at any time, and at 24 Afterwards, if user also needs to reading electronic book, need to regain reading duration.In the embodiment of the present invention, read The mode of duration has three kinds：First way is gets free reading duration, and the second way is by paying certain expense Obtain pay read duration, the third mode be by complete e-book server settings think obtain e-book server give That send gives reading duration.In order to effectively encourage and guide user's reading electronic book, no matter the reading obtained by which kind of mode Duration, there is its corresponding term of validity.

Based on this, in the embodiment of the present invention, for each user, e-book server 12 can safeguard readding shown in Fig. 2 Read duration tables of data.In the reading duration table, e-book server is that each user distributes unique UserID (user's account Number), associated by userID each user reading duration it is related the data such as get, buy, consume or give, and pass through User account number and device identification (device id) can get free time for reading duration daily to limit each user or every equipment Number, wherein, read duration and be divided into three types：

A. it is free to read duration, each user account number and every equipment, it can only get once daily, 1 can be got daily Hour free reading duration, is consumed by time used, daily 24 points of clearings, without accumulative, in e-book client exhibition It is shown as the number of minutes；

B. pay and read duration, it is necessary to which user pays certain expense purchase, minimum buyer is 1 day, by nature day Consumption, actually whether generation reading behavior is unrelated with user, and number of days or date end time are shown as in e-book client；

C. reading duration is given, user obtains by completing particular task or participating in specific activities, and minimum gives unit For 1 day, consumed by nature day, it is unrelated whether actually to produce reading behavior with user, client be shown as number of days or at the end of Between the date；

D. paying, which reads duration and gives reading duration, can cover free reading duration, i.e., when user has paying to read duration Or when giving reading duration, user can not carry out the free operation of getting for reading duration again, pay and read duration and give reading Duration can mutually add up；

User is when e-book client produces and obtains the associative operation for reading duration, and e-book client can be to server Initiate to obtain the network request for reading duration, the request content that server can be reported according to client returns and " reads duration data Corresponding information electron book client in table ", e-book client shows different processing according to the data table information of return As a result, such as：" same day had got duration ", " get number of times beyond equipment limit ", " free duration of reading increases to 60 points from 0 The prompt messages such as clock ".

When it is implemented, reading duration for the first kind, e-book client can be according to the reading daily record shown in Fig. 3 The reading duration of table report of user consumption.Reading log sheet that e-book server is reported according to e-book updates above-mentioned read Read duration tables of data.

As described above, freely read duration consumption according to user in the body of a book page that e-book client is shown Between counted, that is to say, that only e-book client judge that user just starts consumption and exempted from when resting on the body of a book page Take reading duration, when the state that user is in any non-the body of a book page will not consume the free reading duration got, example Such as, user exits e-book client, e-book client and goes to background operation state or user equipment in screen lock state Etc., when e-book client judges that user rests on the body of a book page, according to predetermined period to e-book server Reading log sheet is reported, for example, e-book client can once read log sheet with per minute reported to e-book server, electricity The free reading duration that the cumulative user of information that philosophical works server is reported according to e-book client consumes, and exempting from according to consumption Take and read the reading duration tables of data that duration updates storage, if the free reading duration of the accumulative consumption of user reaches current period When all free reading duration (GainTimes) for reading the acquisition in duration, i.e. reading duration tables of data got is 0, then The free reading duration of the e-book client user is notified to use up, e-book client is according to the notice of e-book server Jump to the prompting page, point out user freely to read duration and used up, can obtain and give reading duration or pay when reading It is long, as shown in Figure 4.

It is preferred that for the free consumption for reading duration, e-book server can read duration data in each update The reading duration tables of data after updating is sent to e-book client after table, so that e-book client accurately controls user to read The authority of e-book.More preferably, in order to reduce the interaction message between e-book server and e-book client occupancy net Network resource, e-book client sends to e-book client and reads duration again only when receiving e-book client request Tables of data, wherein, e-book client sends to e-book server when needing to inquire about the reading duration of user and asked, example Such as, e-book client is in User logs in e-book server, or is receiving the e-book reading instruction of user's submission When, or obtained in user's request and read duration (including free read duration, pay and read duration or give reading duration) Etc., e-book client is after reading duration tables of data is obtained, the reading behavior of itself monitor user, record user's consumption Free reading duration, and free reading duration according to consumption and read the residual time length control indicated in duration tables of data and use The authority of family reading electronic book.

For example, the residue included in the reading duration tables of data that e-book client can be issued according to e-book server Duration controls the authority of user's reading electronic book, if the free reading duration of the accumulative consumption of user reaches residual time length, jumps The prompting page is gone to, points out user freely to read duration and has used up, can obtain to give reading duration or pay and read duration.

It should be noted that the body of a book page being related in the embodiment of the present invention can be the text page of different books Face, e-book client detects user and rests on the body of a book page of any book by the free reading duration of consumption.

Give reading duration and paying reads duration and is with the metering of natural day and consumes, when user's purchase paying is read Duration or acquisition are given after reading duration, and e-book server can record should in " read duration tables of data " corresponding in the user The duration length that user buys or is given away, if user, which currently gives to read duration or pay, reads the deadline of duration It has been failed that, then to buy or give date as duration Start Date, add purchase or the time span being given away, calculate and pay Expense is read duration and given the deadline for reading duration；If giving to read duration or pay and reading the deadline of duration Not yet fail, then using the current expiration date as Start Date, add purchase or the time span being given away, calculate paying and read Duration and the deadline for giving reading duration, user is current and is read every time to server lookup user in e-book client During duration, corresponding reading duration tables of data is returned to, so that e-book client controls the reading authority of user；When paying reading Length is given before reading 0 point of duration deadline, and user can be in client any one books of unconfined reading.Its In, deadline failure is defined as follows, for example, user have purchased to pay for 7 days in 2017.1.1 reads duration, corresponding deadline Phase is 2017.1.8, and user any day before 2017.1.8 (including 2017.1.8) obtains paying and reads duration or give again When sending reading duration, the user is not fail the corresponding deadline, if user is at 2017.1.9 (including 2017.1.9) When any day obtains paying reading duration or gives reading duration again afterwards, the user is to have lost the corresponding deadline Effect.

Duration is read due to paying and give reading duration its consumed according to natural day, therefore, e-book client can be with Sent when user logs in each time to e-book client and read duration tables of data, by e-book client according to wherein including End time control user read authority.

The preferred embodiments of the present invention are illustrated below in conjunction with Figure of description, it will be appreciated that described herein Preferred embodiment is merely to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, and in the case where not conflicting, this hair The feature in embodiment and embodiment in bright can be mutually combined.

Illustrative methods

With reference to Fig. 1 application scenarios, the electricity according to exemplary embodiment of the invention is described with reference to Fig. 2~Figure 10 Philosophical works reading control method.It should be noted that above-mentioned application scenarios are for only for ease of and understand spirit and principles of the present invention And show, embodiments of the present invention are unrestricted in this regard.On the contrary, embodiments of the present invention can apply to fit Any scene.

As shown in figure 5, its be the embodiment of the present invention in, the reality of the e-book reading control method of e-book client implementation Schematic flow sheet is applied, be may comprise steps of：

S51, sent to e-book server and read duration inquiry request, carried in the reading duration inquiry request State the corresponding user's mark of user.

When it is implemented, e-book client can be sent when meeting default trigger condition to e-book server Read duration inquiry request.For example, the trigger condition being related in this step can be following either condition：Ask to log in user E-book server, detects user and submits e-book reading to instruct, or receive user request obtain read duration (including It is free to read duration, pay to read duration and give and read duration) when etc..

It should be noted that the user's mark being related in this step can include the user account number obtained during user's registration, This login e-book server of phone number, ID card No. and the user that user reserves uses the equipment mark of equipment Know.

S52, the reading duration tables of data for receiving the e-book server return.

In this step, e-book server is according to the user's identifier lookup carried in the reading duration inquiry request received The user is corresponding to read duration table and returns to e-book client.

If S53, according to it is described reading duration tables of data, judge that the available reading duration of the user is not zero, then According to described with the time for reading duration control user's reading electronic book.

When it is implemented, e-book client is according to duration tables of data is read, judge whether user has available reading duration, If so, then according to time and the authority of user's reading electronic book can be controlled with reading duration.

Wherein, when reading duration tables of data includes residual time length or the Second Type reading of first kind reading duration The long end time, wherein, the first kind reads duration and Second Type reads duration with different chronomere's timing.Example Such as, the first kind, which reads duration, can include the free reading duration that user gets, and its measurement unit can be hour, and second Type reads duration and can read duration to pay or give reading duration, and its measurement unit can be day.

Based on this, in step S53, e-book client receive according to read duration table, can be in accordance with the following methods To control the time of user's reading electronic book：Residual time length control user's reading electronic book of duration is read according to the first kind Duration is no more than the residual time length；Or end time control user's reading electronic book of duration is read according to Second Type Time is no more than the end time.

If used when it is implemented, e-book client is that the residual time length control for reading duration according to the first kind is described The duration of family reading electronic book is no more than the residual time length, then e-book reading control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, It can also comprise the following steps：According to default report cycle, readding for user's consumption is reported to the e-book server Read duration.

In this step, i.e., the reading duration tables of data that e-book client is issued according to e-book reading server is judged The free duration of reading of residue that user gets is not zero, then e-book client also needs to take to e-book according to the default cycle The free reading duration of business device report of user consumption.The consumption of duration is read for Second Type, due to being consumed according to natural day, It is unrelated whether it produces reading behavior with user, therefore, when e-book client to e-book without report the Second Type to read Long Expenditure Levels, the consumption that Second Type reads duration is counted i.e. by e-book server according to the consumption of natural time Can.

When it is implemented, e-book client can judge user's in accordance with the following methods according to duration tables of data is read Whether can be zero with duration is read, if the residual time length that the first kind reads duration is not zero or Second Type reading duration End time do not reach, it is determined that the available reading duration of the user is not zero；If the first kind reads the surplus of duration When remaining a length of zero and Second Type read duration end time reached, it is determined that it is a length of during the available reading of the user Zero.If it is judged that the available reading duration of user is not zero, then e-book client can be controlled according to duration table is read It is the time of user's reading electronic book, false if be not zero for example, reading the first kind in duration table and reading remaining time of duration If the first kind read duration remaining time be 36 minutes, then e-book client control user's reading electronic book it is accumulative when It is long to be no more than 36 minutes.When the time that e-book client is consumed according to user's reading electronic book determine user consumption it is accumulative when When length reaches 36 minutes, i.e., when remaining time is zero, whether e-book Client-Prompt user, which needs purchase to pay, is read duration Or reading duration is given in acquisition, the corresponding guiding page is jumped to according to the selection of user.

If the end time for reading Second Type reading duration in duration table does not reach, it is assumed that be on March 31st, 2017, When then the time of e-book client control user's reading electronic book is no more than 31 days 24 March in 2017.I.e. March 31 in 2017 Before when days 24, user possesses the reading authority of e-book, during 31 days 24 March in 2017 after, user has e-book no longer Reading authority.After reaching between at the end, it user may also be prompted whether to need to obtain free reading duration or purchase Pay to read duration or obtain and give reading duration, and jump to the corresponding guiding page.

Especially, if user's selection obtains free reading duration, e-book client can be according to readding for receiving Whether that reads to carry in duration tables of data gets the free label information for reading duration and judges that user is currently getting in cycle It is no to have the qualification for getting free reading duration, got if it is judged that user is qualified, then send free to e-book server Duration gets request；If it is judged that user gets had got free duration in current period, it is determined that user does not have Qualification is got, then points out user currently to get in the cycle and got free duration.

In another embodiment, e-book client can not also judge whether user possesses and get qualification, but directly The acquisition request of free duration is sent to e-book server, is identified and judged according to the user wherein carried by e-book server Whether user, which has, is got qualification.

It is preferred that the first kind read duration be included in it is current get the free reading duration got in the cycle, described the The residual time length that one type reads duration is in the free reading duration currently got and got in the cycle according to the user And what the difference of the reading duration consumed was determined；The Second Type, which reads duration, to be included paying reading duration and/or gives Duration is read, wherein, the end time that the Second Type reads duration is to read duration according to the paying and give reading Duration sum is determined.

It is preferred that also being got in the reading duration tables of data that e-book server is issued including user currently in the cycle Whether the free label information of reading duration is got, based on this, if e-book client is according to long number during the reading received Judge that a length of zero during the available reading of user, then e-book reading control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, may be used also according to table To comprise the following steps：Judge the user gets free reading whether has been got in the cycle currently according to the label information Duration；If it is, prompting the user whether that selection pays to obtain to pay to read duration or obtain gives reading duration；If It is no, then prompt the user whether to obtain free reading duration.

Further, if user user's selection, which pays to obtain to pay, reads duration, jump to payment page guiding and use Family completes e-payment flow；If reading duration is given in user's selection acquisition, the default task choosing page is jumped to, is drawn Lead the task that user completes setting.

When it is implemented, the task that reading duration is given in user's acquisition can include：

(a) book review is write, for example, can limit after user writes book review and issue successfully first, can obtain 30 minutes and exempt from Take the reward for reading duration；Comprising user's mark in the book review data structure table that e-book client is submitted to e-book server Know, e-book client can verify that the user identifies whether to write for the first time and issue book review, and being proved to be successful then can be to the use The free duration of increase by 30 minutes in " the reading duration tables of data " of family mark；

(b) book review write is labeled, for example, the book review that user writes, which obtains COLLECTIDN, can obtain certain give Duration reward is read, is defaulted as 7 days, the book review of each user's issue can be managed in e-book server background, be compiled Collect after recommending the book review of some user on backstage, backstage can be identified according to the user included in the book review data structure table, be looked into " reading duration tables of data " of user mark is ask, reading duration is given in increase；

(c) e-book client downloads information is shared, for example, by sharing the personal invitation code that e-book server is generated Mode obtain and give duration reward, often invite a new registration user, invite and people and be invited to that reward in 1 day can be obtained per capita, No ceiling：The personal invitation code that user shares is identified with user and corresponded, when new user is invited using the snail of invitation people When the new user of code activation rewards, e-book server background can identify user corresponding with invitation code according to the user of new user and mark Know " reading duration tables of data " of both inquiries respectively, and duration is given to its increase.

In e-book reading control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, the reading duration issued according to e-book server Tables of data, the authority of user's reading electronic book within the time of restriction is controlled by dimension of the time, if according to long number when reading Judge that user has the available time read duration, then user's reading electronic book is controlled according to reading duration table according to table, if root Judge that user not can use reading duration according to duration is read, then determine whether that user gets whether the cycle gets currently Free duration, if not yet got, guiding user gets free duration, if got, and prompts the user whether to pay Purchase, which is paid, reads duration or guiding user completes setting task and gives reading duration so as to obtaining, thus, add to The excitation and guiding of family reading electronic book, improve e-book reading efficiency and reading effect, are that user brings more preferable body Test.
