Sample Server Development Overview

The sample server provides a simple server instance for deploying update packages. It can be used as an auxiliary test environment for the UpdateService subsystem.

Basic Concepts

• Package search service: one of the service capabilities provided by the UpdateService. It depends on the server that supports the TCP and SSL protocols.

• Package search server: a server that provisions the package search service through the TCP connection and the SSL protocol. The sample server mentioned in this document is such a package search server.

• Download server: an HTTP server.

• update.serverip.search: a system parameter that indicates the IP address of the package search server configured on the UpdateService. The default value is 127.0.0.1.

Constraints

• The following is an example of the JSON response returned by the server. Note that the verifyInfo field indicates the SHA-256 value of the update package, and the size field indicates the size of the update package, in bytes.

{
    "searchStatus": 0,
    "errMsg": "success",
    "checkResults": [{
        "versionName": "versionNameSample",
        "versionCode": "versionCodeSample",
        "verifyInfo": "verifyInfoSHA256Value1234567",
        "size": 1234567,
        "packageType": 1,
        "url": "http://serverAddressSample/packageNameSample.fileTypeSample",
        "descriptPackageId": "abcdefg1234567ABCDEFG"
    }],
    "descriptInfo": [{
        "descriptionType": 0,
        "content": "This package is used for update."
    }]
}
