AdaptivePlus Android SDK

AdaptivePlus is the control center for marketing campaigns in mobile applications

Requirements

minSdkVersion 16

Examples provided in Kotlin programming language

Installation

Add the following dependency to your app's build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    implementation 'plus.adaptive:android-sdk:2.3.9'
}

Maven central

Add the following to your root build.gradle file

allprojects {
    repositories {
      mavenCentral()
    }
}

Do not forget to sync project with gradle files afterwards

Adding AdaptivePlus API base url

Put API base url into your app manifest file inside <application> tag

<manifest ...>
    <application ...>
        <meta-data
            android:name="adaptiveBaseApiUrl"
            android:value="AdaptivePlus API base url hosted by your company"
            />
    </application>
</manifest>

!!! BE CAREFUL !!! It is possible that your company hosts several development environments, thus the API base url depends on the environment

Initialization

Initialize AdaptivePlusSDK on app startup and pass the API key that you received upon account registration

// App StartUp
class YourApp: Application() {
    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()

        AdaptivePlusSDK
            .init(apiKey = "your api key")
    }
}

Initialization Exception

SDK throws APInitializationException on newInstance method call if adaptivePlusApiKey is not provided beforehand via init method

AdaptivePlusView (Banner & Story)

You can visit the admin panel and create some content. Do not forget to change the status of the content to active. Then create AdaptivePlusView instance or add it in xml and specify APViewId(e. g. APV-00000000).

class MainActivity: Activity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        val adaptiveView = AdaptivePlusView(ctx).apply
        adaptiveView.setAdaptivePlusViewId("APV-00000000")                
    }
}

XML

<plus.adaptive.sdk.ui.AdaptivePlusView
    android:id="@+id/adaptivePlusView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:apViewId="APV-00000000"
    />

AdaptivePlusViewless (Instruction & PopUp)

You can visit the admin panel and create some content. Do not forget to change the status of the content to active. When you call preload and show methods you need add created APViewId(e. g. APV-00000000) as argument. preload method preloads the Instruction(or PopUp) contents to your device, and show displaying it.

class MainActivity: Activity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        AdaptivePlusViewless(this).apply {
            preload("APV-00000000")
            show("APV-00000000")
        }
    }
}

Show AdaptivePlus Viewless at any suitable moment but note that preload must call before calling show method.

Also you can add OnStoriesFinishedCallback

class MainActivity: Activity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        val adaptiveInstruction = AdaptivePlusInstruction(this)
        adaptiveInstruction.preload("APV-00000000")
        adaptiveInstruction.setOnDismissedListener {
            // TODO: dosomething when instructions finished 
        }
    }
}

If you are not able to observe the created content - probable reasons are:

You forgot to activate the content in the AdaptivePlus admin panel
Check again the integration guide, maybe you missed something out
The SDK couldn't preload the contents on the previous preload method calls due to network issues or internal sdk issues

Custom Action Listener

interface APCustomActionListener {
    fun onRun(action: APCustomAction)
}

data class APCustomAction(
    val name: String?,
    val parameters: HashMap<String, Any>?
) : Serializable

For listening of the events - you should provide your implementation of APCustomActionListener:

    AdaptivePlusView(this).apply(
        setAdaptivePlusViewId("APV-00000000")
        setAPCustomActionListener(
            object: APCustomActionListener {
                override fun onRun(action: APCustomAction) {
                    // TODO: your implementation of Adaptive Plus Custom Actions
                }
            }
        )
    )

    AdaptivePlusInstruction(this).apply(
        setAPCustomActionListener(
            object: APCustomActionListener {
                override fun onRun(action: APCustomAction) {
                    // TODO: your implementation of Adaptive Plus Custom Actions
                }
            }
        )
    )

Personalized Experience

In order to make SDK experience more personalized, you can provide following user data:

AdaptivePlusSDK
    .newInstance(context)
    .setUserId(userId)
    .setUserProperties(userProperties)
    .setLocation(userLocation)

userId: String - id assigned to the user by your own system/service, useful for identifying the same user across multiple devices
userProperties: Map<String, String> - user properties, e.g. - age, gender, etc. User properties help SDK to select and show content relevant to the user. Ex:

val userProperties = mapOf("age" to "25", "gender" to "male")

userLocation: APLocation - user location (latitude & longitude). Required if you want to display geo-oriented content to the user

data class APLocation(
    val latitude: Double,
    val longitude: Double
) : Serializable

AdaptivePlus Debug Mode

To observe network logs of the SDK - pass true to setIsDebuggable method:

AdaptivePlusSDK
    .setIsDebuggable(true)

AdaptivePlusSDK
    .newInstance(context)
    .setIsDebuggable(true)

Do not forget to switch Debug Mode off for the release build of your app.

Permissions

We include the INTERNET permission by default as we need it to make network requests:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

will be added to the manifest file during the app build process

Transitive Dependencies

AdaptivePlus Android SDK transitively depends on the above libraries. If your app is using any one of these libraries, they should at least be on the same major version that AdaptivePlus SDK is using. When there are two versions of a library at build time, Gradle automatically picks the newer version. This means if you are currently using say Glide 3.x, your app would automatically get Glide 4.x after including AdaptivePlus.
