Method, electronic device, and computer program product for setting feature flags

An electronic device, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor and having instructions stored therein, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to perform operations comprising:
• generating a target feature flag file with a predetermined data format, the target feature flag file indicating a name and a target state of a target feature;
• generating a feature state query library of the target feature flag by converting the target feature flag file into a plurality of target codes corresponding to a plurality of target programming languages, at least in part by constructing the feature state query library based on the plurality of programming languages and the target feature flag file, the feature state query library comprising a plurality of feature state query clients in respective ones of the plurality of target programming languages, wherein each feature state query client includes an API (Application Programming Interface) that reports the target state of the target feature;
• querying, from the feature state query library, a target code corresponding to a target programming language used by a client in the plurality of target programming languages;
• and
• sending the queried target code to the client, the target code indicating the target state of the target feature.

A computer program product having a non-transitory computer readable medium which stores a set of instructions to set feature flags;

• the set of instructions, when carried out by computerized circuitry, causing the computerized circuitry to perform a method of:
• generating a target feature flag file with a predetermined data format, the target feature flag file indicating a name and a target state of a target feature;
• generating a feature state query library of the target feature flag by converting the target feature flag file into a plurality of target codes corresponding to a plurality of target programming languages, at least in part by constructing the feature state query library based on the plurality of programming languages and the target feature flag file, the feature state query library comprising a plurality of feature state query clients in respective ones of the plurality of target programming languages, wherein each feature state query client includes an API (Application Programming Interface) that reports the target state of the target feature;
• querying, from the feature state query library, a target code corresponding to a target programming language used by a client in the plurality of target programming languages;
• and
• sending the queried target code to the client, the target code indicating the target state of the target feature.
