Description

The idea is to provide a common Ads interface for most of available ad frameworks. A common ads interface allows users to switch and fall back between ad frameworks at runtime.

More information available in [1](Ads interface guide).

Examples

Admob

Ads = Core.class(Sprite) -- you need to add "Ads" and "Gaming" to your project Plugins

function Ads:init()
	-- ads
	self.ADMOB_APP_ID = "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544~3347511713" -- google test id
	self.ADMOB_UNIT_ID = "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/6300978111" -- google test id

	-- admob (setup for simple banner adverts), note: only visible on phone/tablet
	if application:getDeviceInfo() == "Android" then
		require 'ads' --create real object for on device
		self.ADMOB = Ads.new('admob')
		self.ADMOB:setKey(self.ADMOB_APP_ID)
		self.ADMOB:addEventListener(Event.AD_RECEIVED, function() -- show ad
			self.ADMOB:showAd('banner')
			self.ADMOB:setAlignment('center', 'bottom')
		end)
		self.ADMOB:addEventListener(Event.AD_FAILED, function(e) end)
		self.ADMOB:addEventListener(Event.AD_ACTION_BEGIN, function() end)
		self.ADMOB:addEventListener(Event.AD_ACTION_END, function() end)
		self.ADMOB:addEventListener(Event.AD_DISMISSED, function() end)

		self.ADMOB:loadAd("banner", self.ADMOB_UNIT_ID) -- load ad
	else
		self.ADMOB = {} -- create fake object for testing in windows player
		self.ADMOB.loadAd = function() end
		self.ADMOB.showAd = function() end
	end

	-- LISTENERS
	self:addEventListener("enterBegin", self.onTransitionInBegin, self)
	self:addEventListener("enterEnd", self.onTransitionInEnd, self)
	self:addEventListener("exitBegin", self.onTransitionOutBegin, self)
	self:addEventListener("exitEnd", self.onTransitionOutEnd, self)
end

-- EVENT LISTENERS
function Ads:onTransitionInBegin()
end
function Ads:onTransitionInEnd()
end
function Ads:onTransitionOutBegin()
end
function Ads:onTransitionOutEnd()
end


Creating fallbacks with Ads frameworks

--require plugin
require "ads"

--initialize amazon
amazon = Ads.new("amazon")
amazon:setKey("amazon-key")

--initialize admob
admob = Ads.new("admob")
admob:setKey("admob-key")

--if amazon fails
--show admob
amazon:addEventListener(Event.AD_FAILED, function(e)
	print("amazon AD_FAILED", e.error)
	admob:showAd("auto")
end)

--if admob fails
--show amazon
admob:addEventListener(Event.AD_FAILED, function(e)
	print("admob AD_FAILED", e.error)
	amazon:showAd("auto")
end)

--start displaying amazon ads
amazon:showAd("auto")
