Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method, a client device and a server of accessing network information through a graphic code. The method comprises: receiving an access request from a client, where the access request includes information of a graphic code; querying and obtaining, in a server, display information and action instruction that is configured in correspondence with the information of the graphic code in the access request; and performing a corresponding action in the display information according to the action instruction information to obtain an access result of the graphic code. The disclosed method simplifies operations of a user without waiting for the user'"'"'s step-by-step operation requests, and further simplifies a handling process of the server. In addition, this method of directly returning an access result of a graphic code to a client fulfills an intention of a publisher of the graphic code.

Claims

1. A method of accessing network information through a graphic code, comprising:

receiving an access request from a client, wherein the access request includes information of a graphic code;

querying and obtaining, in a server, display information and action instruction information that is configured in correspondence with the information of the graphic code in the access request; and

performing a corresponding action in the display information according to the action instruction information to obtain an access result of the graphic code.

2. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein:

the server performs the corresponding action in the display information according to the action instruction information to obtain the access result of the graphic code.

3. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein after querying in the server, the method further comprises:

sending the display information and the action instruction information to the client; and

the client performing the corresponding action in the display information according to the action instruction information to obtain the access result of the graphic code.

4. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein:

the access request of the client further includes information of a login account, and

storing a correspondence relationship between the access result and the login account in the server after obtaining the access result of the graphic code.

5. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein:

the display information is web page information, and

the action instruction includes at least one of “

view”

, “

follow”

, “

add to favorite”

, and “

add to shopping cart”

.

6. The method as recited in claim 5, wherein:

the display information is homepage information of a store;

if the action instruction information is “

view store homepage”

, an action to be performed is to present web page content of a store homepage;

if the action instruction information is “

add to favorite”

, an action to be performed is to add the store into a favorite folder; and

if the action instruction information is “

follow the store homepage”

, an action to be performed is to customize related push information of a homepage of the store.

7. The method as recited in claim 5, wherein:

the display information is product detail information;

if the action instruction information is “

view product detail page”

, an action to be performed is to present web page content of a product detail page;

if the action instruction information is “

add to shopping cart”

, an action to be performed is to add a product into a shopping cart; and

if the action instruction information is “

add to favorite”

, an action to be performed is to add the product into a favorite folder.

8. A method of accessing network information through a graphic code, comprising:

a client sending an access request to a server, wherein the access request includes information of a graphic code;

receiving display information and action instruction information that is found in the server and is configured in correspondence with the information of the graphic code in the access request; and

the client performing a corresponding action in the display information according to the action instruction information to obtain an access result of said graphic code.

9. The method as recited in claim 8, wherein:

the access request of client further includes information of a login account; and

the client sends the access result to the server, and stores a correspondence relationship the access result and the login account information in the server.

10. The method as recited in claim 8, wherein:

the display information is event page information; and

the action instruction information includes at least one of a touch operation, an accelerometer and a microphone operation.

11. The method as recited in claim 10, wherein:

the display information is scratch page information, and the action instruction information is a touch operation in a scratch region;

upon receiving touch information in the scratch region, the client obtains an access result of the scratch page based on the touch information in the scratch region.

12. The method as recited in claim 10, wherein:

the display information is lottery page information, and the action instruction information is the accelerometer operation;

upon receiving accelerometer information, the client obtains an access result of the lottery page based on the accelerometer information.

a query module used for querying and obtaining, in a server, display information and action instruction information that is configured in correspondence with the information of the graphic code in the access request; and

an action execution module used for performing a corresponding action in the display information according to the action instruction information to obtain an access result of the graphic code.

15. The server as recited in claim 14, wherein:

the access request of the client further includes information of a login account; and

the server further comprises a storage module used for storing a correspondence relationship between the access result and the login account in the server after obtaining the access result of the graphic code.

16. The server as recited in claim 14, wherein:

the display information is web page information; and

the action instruction information includes at least one of “

view”

, “

follow”

, “

add to favorite”

, and “

add to shopping cart”

.

17. A client device of accessing network information through a graphic code, comprising:
