1. A debugging method for production line devices, comprising:
receiving control commands for a plurality of first devices disposed at different environments in a production line, wherein respective control programs are configured for the plurality of first devices;
calling the control programs for the plurality of first devices according to the control commands for the plurality of first devices respectively so as to debug individually the plurality of first devices to enable the plurality of first devices to meet requirements of the different environments respectively in the production line;
receiving first function control commands for the plurality of first devices; and
calling the control programs for the plurality of first devices according to the first function control commands for the plurality of first devices respectively so as to execute a first function on each of the plurality of first devices,
wherein the plurality of first devices comprise a first target device, and the first function control command comprises a connect command and a disconnect command; and
wherein the calling the control programs for the plurality of first devices according to the first function control commands for the plurality of first devices respectively so as to execute a first function on each of the plurality of first devices comprises:
calling a control program for the first target device according to a connect command for the first target device so as to connect the first target device via a connect function interface, the connect function interface configured to receive connect commands for the plurality of first devices;
calling the control program for the first target device according to a disconnect command for the first target device so as to disconnect the first target device via a disconnect function interface, the disconnect function interface configured to receive disconnect commands for the plurality of first devices; and
wherein the plurality of first devices comprise a plurality of image acquisition devices, and the first function control command comprises a trigger command; wherein the calling the control programs for the plurality of first devices according to the first function control commands for the plurality of first devices respectively so as to execute a first function on each of the plurality of first devices comprises: calling, according to a trigger command for a target image acquisition device in the plurality of image acquisition devices, a control program for the target image acquisition device so as to trigger the target image acquisition device to acquire an image.
