Android library to help ad publishers easily integrate ads into their app streams.
- Handles ad fetching, caching and the entire ad lifecycle
- Handles ad positioning logic in stream
- Extensibility and ability to add new positioning logic
After creating your data adapter, you can create an ad adapter wrapper using:
FlurryAdListAdapter adAdapter = FlurryAdListAdapter.from(context, myAdapter, viewBinder, adSpace)
.setAdPositioner(new LinearLayoutPositioner(3, 4))
.build();This will create an adapter with an ad at position 3 and with another ad appearing after every other 4 positions.
That's about all it takes to integrate ads into your data adapter. See the Samples or read the sections below to learn more.
Before setting up the ad adapter, you would need to set up a view binder that knows which view resources to use for each native ad asset when building the native ad.
NativeAdViewBinder viewBinder = viewBinderBuilder.setAdLayoutId(R.layout.list_item_ad)
.setHeadlineTextId(R.id.ad_headline)
.setDescriptionTextId(R.id.ad_description)
.setSourceTextId(R.id.ad_source)
.setBrandingLogoImageId(R.id.sponsored_image)
.setAppStarRatingImageId(R.id.app_rating_image)
.setAdImageId(R.id.ad_image)
.build();It is not necessary to specify a view for each ad asset. Any asset that is not bound to a view will not be used when building the native ad.
The logic for positioning ads within the stream is handled by implementations of the
AdapterAdPositioner
interface.
The library comes with one implementation, LinearIntervalAdPositioner, which uses a linear
function to determine ad placement intervals. To instantiate this positioner, you need to pass in an
ad start position and an ad repeat interval.
AdapterAdPositioner positioner = new LinearLayoutPositioner(startPosition, repeatInterval);Setting a startPosition of 3, for example, will make an ad take up the third position in the
adapter.
Setting a repeatInterval of x will make an ad show up after every x positions after the start
position. To disable repeat ads in stream, you can set repeatInterval to 0.
You can also provide your own implementations of AdapterAdPositioner if you choose to use a
different ad placement logic.
When building the adapter, you can specify the FlurryAdTargeting to be used for each ad in the
adapter.
You could also choose to register your own FlurryAdNativeListener if you choose to monitor native
ad callbacks, e.g. for reporting purposes.
A stub
is provided for you to selectively implement callback methods.
If the FlurryAdNativeListener is too cumbersome, you could listen for callbacks from the simpler
NativeAdApapter.NativeAdRenderListener instead.
Finally, the NativeAdAdapter provides support for retrying an ad fetch for a position that is
on-screen that but failed to show an ad. By default, the adapter will not retry failed positions
after the position is on-screen. This prevents "jumpy" lists where an ad pops in after its position
is already on-screen.
To disable this and render ads at all specified positions, call NativeAdAdapter#setRetryFailedAdPositions(true)

- Adds support for Flurry Expandable Ads in
ListViewstreams. See the ListView sample for more. - Removes the Flurry SDK as a compile-time dependency in the library. You can now include your own version of Flurry while including this library.
