Apparatuses, methods, and systems for an API call abstractor
View Patent ↗A social networking application manager (“SNAM”) initializes a set of modules for an application with their most updated versions. SNAM then iterates through the following operations. SNAM obtains the specification attributes for an updated version of the application. SNAM then obtains specification attributes for each module. SNAM compares the specification attributes of the modules with the specification attributes of the application to identify incompatible specification attributes. SNAM identifies the least compatible module. And SNAM replaces the least compatible module with a version of the module that results from decrementing a version number for the module. This iteration continues until there are no more incompatible specification attributes.
1. A method for selecting modules for an application update, comprising operations of:
initializing a set of modules for an application with their most updated versions; and
iterating through operations of:
obtaining specification attributes for an updated version of the application;
obtaining specification attributes for each module;
comparing specification attributes of the modules with specification attributes of the application to identify incompatible specification attributes;
identifying the least compatible module; and
replacing the least compatible module with a version of the module that results from decrementing a version number for the module, until there are no more incompatible specification attributes,
wherein the operations are executed by one or more processors.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the least compatible module is the module having the most incompatible specification attributes.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specification attributes include names of modules referenced.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specification attributes include versions of modules referenced.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specification attributes include application programming interfaces (APIs) called.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specification attributes include an operating system.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specification attributes include a version of an operating system.
8. A system for selecting modules for an application update, comprising:
one or more processors; and
a memory disposed in communication with the one or more processors and storing processor-executable instructions, the instructions comprising instructions to:
initialize a set of modules for an application with their most updated versions; and
iterate through operations of:
obtaining specification attributes for an updated version of the application;
obtaining specification attributes for each module;
comparing specification attributes of the modules with specification attributes of the application to identify incompatible specification attributes;
identifying the least compatible module; and
replacing the least compatible module with a version of the module that results from decrementing a version number for the module, until there are no more incompatible specification attributes.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the least compatible module is the module having the most incompatible specification attributes.
10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the specification attributes include names of modules referenced.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the specification attributes include versions of modules referenced.
12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the specification attributes include application programming interfaces (APIs) called.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the specification attributes include an operating system.
14. A medium that is processor-readable and non-transitory storing processor-executable instructions, the instructions comprising instructions to:
initialize a set of modules for an application with their most updated versions; and
iterate through operations of:
obtaining specification attributes for an updated version of the application;
obtaining specification attributes for each module;
comparing specification attributes of the modules with specification attributes of the application to identify incompatible specification attributes;
identifying the least compatible module; and
replacing the least compatible module with a version of the module that results from decrementing a version number for the module, until there are no more incompatible specification attributes.
15. The medium of claim 14 , wherein the least compatible module is the module having the most incompatible specification attributes.
16. The medium of claim 14 , wherein the specification attributes include names of modules referenced.
17. The medium of claim 14 , wherein the specification attributes include versions of modules referenced.
18. The medium of 14 , wherein the specification attributes include application programming interfaces (APIs) called.
19. The medium of 14 , wherein the specification attributes include an operating system.
20. The medium of claim 14 , wherein the specification attributes include a version of an operating system.
