Android

Add our ad-integration SDK into your app's build.gradle file:

	}
}

Usage

Contact to your account manager to obtain your application name (APPLICATION_NAME) and call strings (INTERSTITIAL_CALL_STRING and BANNER_CALL_STRING). Each call string represents a single slot.

import { Yieldlove, YieldloveBannerAd } from 'react-native-yieldlove';

// before using any other method from Yieldlove and/or rendering YieldloveBannerAd you have to set the application name
Yieldlove.setApplicationName(APPLICATION_NAME);

// optional global custom targeting
Yieldlove.setCustomTargeting({fruit: 'apple', colour: 'pink'});

// optional global content url
Yieldlove.setContentUrl("https://www.example.com/content/global.html")

// loading & showing interstitial ad
Yieldlove.loadInterstitial({
  callString: INTERSTITIAL_CALL_STRING,
  options: {
    contentUrl: 'https://www.example.com/content/interstitial.html',
    customTargeting: {
      fruit: 'banana',
      day: 'saturday'
    }
  },
  onAdLoaded: () => {
    Yieldlove.showInterstitial().catch(error => console.log(error));
  }
});

// rendering banner ad
// ...
<YieldloveBannerAd
  callString={BANNER_CALL_STRING}
  options={{
    customTargeting: {
      fruit: 'orange',
      day: 'monday'
    },
    contentUrl: 'https://www.example.com/content/banner.html'
  }}
  onAdLoaded={({nativeEvent}) => {
    // can use to change the style
    const { width, height } = nativeEvent;
    this.setState({ width, height });
  }}
/>

Yieldlove

setApplicationName: (applicationName: string) => void

Set this at the start of your app to initialize Yieldlove SDK.

setDebug: (isDebugModeEnabled: boolean) => void

Enable debug logs from native libraries.

setCustomTargeting: (customTargeting: { [key: string]: string }) => void

Set global (default) custom targeting.

setContentUrl: (contentUrl: string) => void

Set global (default) content URL for targeting purposes.

clearConfigurationCache: () => void

For each application name, extended configuration is downloaded and cached on the user's device for a period of time. This function clears the cache. As a result, the next call to setApplicationName will always download a new copy of the configuration.

loadInterstitial: (options: LoadInterstitialParams, ) => void

Load interstitial ad. Available options:

| Prop | Mandatory | Description | |------------------------|------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | callString | true | Valid call string. | | options | false | See AdOptions below | | | | onAdLoaded | false | Callback function for "onAdLoaded" event. | | onAdFailedToLoad | false | Callback function for "onAdFailedToLoad" event. Expects single argument object which contains code: string and message: string describing the error. |

showInterstitial: () => Promise<void>

Present loaded interstitial ad. Can reject with an error if the ad could not be presented (e.g. when trying to call showInterstitial before ad was actually loaded).

AdOptions

| Prop | Mandatory | Type | Description | |-------------------|-----------|------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | contentUrl | false | string | Content URL for targeting purposes. Will override the global content URL. | | customTargeting | false | { [key: string]: string } | An object containing key-value pairs used for custom targeting. Will merge with global custom targeting. A key redefined here take precedence over the globally defined one. |

Error Events

The nativeEvent for the onAdFailedToLoad event handler contains code: number and message: string describing the error. Any error means no ad was delivered and rendered.

See ErrorCode enum to see the current list of supported codes. More may be added in future releases.

ErrorEvent

The nativeEvent implements the following interface:

| Name | Type | Description | |-----------|----------------------|-----------------------------------------------------| | code | ErrorCode (number) | Platform independent code that classifies the error | | message | string | Message describing the error |

ErrorCode enum

| Name | Value (number) | Description | |------------------------------|----------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | UNKNOWN | 1 | The error is unknown or unclassified | | AD_SERVER_INTERNAL_REQUEST | 2 | Something happened internally; for instance, an invalid response was received from the ad server. | | AD_SERVER_INVALID_REQUEST | 3 | The ad request was invalid; for instance, the ad unit ID was incorrect. | | AD_SERVER_NETWORK_ERROR | 4 | The ad request was unsuccessful due to network connectivity. | | AD_SERVER_NO_FILL | 5 | The ad request was successful, but no ad was returned due to lack of ad inventory. |

Testing ads

Troubleshooting

Android

DexArchiveMergerException

If you get an error like this:

D8: Cannot fit requested classes in a single dex file (# methods: 68776 > 65536)
com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Error while merging dex archives:
The number of method references in a .dex file cannot exceed 64K.
Learn how to resolve this issue at https://developer.android.com/tools/building/multidex.html

adding multiDexEnabled true to the defaultConfig in android/app/build.gradle should fix it:

android {
    ...

    defaultConfig {
        ...
        multiDexEnabled true
   }
   ...
}

iOS
