Overview

Thank you for choosing Pokkt SDK for Corona. This document contains all the information required to setup the SDK with your project. We also support mediation for various third party networks. To know the supported third party networks and their integration process go to mediation section.

Before implementing plugins it is mandatory to go through project configuration and implementation steps, as these sections contain mandatory steps for basic SDK integration and are followed by every plugin.

minSdkVersionsupported is 11 .

ScreenName: This one parameter is accepted by almost all API’s of Pokkt SDK. This controls the placement of ads and can be created on Pokkt Dashboard.

We will be referencing PokktAds Demo app provided with SDK during the course of explanation in this document. We suggest you go through the sample app for better understanding.

Project Configuration

Android

In the package downloaded above you will find:

1. Docs:

   Contains step wise step integration for SDK.

2. PokktCoronaDemo app code.

3. PokktCoronaDemo.apk:

   Application package of Pokkt Corona Demo, so that you can directly install this apk on your device and have a look how our SDK works instead of compiling the source code.

4. SDK + Plugin:

   1. JAR

      • PokktSDK_v7.6.0.jar

      • PAPCorona.jar

      • pokktsdk360ext.jar

   2. Dependencies

      • Android-support-v4.jar

      • google-play-services.jar

minSdkVersionsupported is 11.

Dependencies

• Extract the provided file "corona-plugin-pokkt.zip" into a directory.

• We expect Google play services integrated in project, although it is optional but we recommend you to integrate it, as it is required to fetch AdvertisingID for device,which is useful to deliver targeted advertising to Android users.

Manifest

Permissions Declarations

We have already added the following mandatory permissions to the manifest via plugin.xml

1. Mandatory permissions.

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

   • android.permission.INTERNET = Required for SDK communication with server.

   • android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE = Required to detect changes in network, like if WIFI is available or not.

2. Optional permissions. We have commented out these in plugin.xml. Please uncomment those for better ad delivery and ad experience.

   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR" />
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />

   • android.permission.WAKE_LOCK = Required to prevent device from going into the sleep mode during video play.

   • android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE = Required to store media files related to ads in external SD card, if not provided we will use app cache folder to store media files, which will result in unnecessary increase in application’s size. It is recommended to ask for this permission as low end devices generally have less internally memory available.

   • android.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR = Some Ads create events in calendar.

   • android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION = Some Ads show content based on user’s location

   • android.permission.VIBRATE = Some Ads provide haptic feedback, so as to maintain their behavior we need this permission

Activity Declaration

We have already added the following activity in your AndroidManifest for Pokkt SDK integration via plugin.xml

Implementation Steps

SDK Configuration

1. For all invocation of Pokkt SDK developer will make use of methods available in pokkt.plugin using PokktNativeExtension class. Android Plugin LuaLoader will have changes as below:

   //This corresponds to the event name, e.g. [Lua] event.name
   private static final String POKKT_EVENT_NAME = "pluginpokktevent";
   //Pokkt plugin
   PokktNativeExtension pokktNativeExtension = new PokktNativeExtension();
   
   //Implements the library.init() Lua function.
   public int init(LuaState L) {
      int listenerIndex = 1;
      if (CoronaLua.isListener(L, listenerIndex, POKKT_EVENT_NAME)) {
         fListener = CoronaLua.newRef(L, listenerIndex);
         pokktNativeExtension.setListenerIndex(fListener);
      }
      return 0;
   }
   @Override
   public int invoke(LuaState L) {
      // Register this plugin into Lua with the following functions.
      NamedJavaFunction[] luaFunctions = new NamedJavaFunction[]{
         new plugin.pokkt.LuaLoader.InitWrapper(),};
      luaFunctions = pokktNativeExtension.addPokktNamedFunctions(luaFunctions);
      String libName = L.toString(1);
      L.register(libName, luaFunctions);
   
      //1 indicates that Lua require() function will return above Lua library.
      return 1;
   }

2. Set Application Id and Security key in Pokkt SDK. You can get it from Pokkt dashboard from your account. These are unique per app registered.

   local pokktlibrary = require "plugin.pokkt"
   local pokktConfigJson = {
      ["appId"] = "<Pokkt Application ID>",
      ["securityKey"] = <Pokkt Security Key>"
      }
   local encoded = json.encode( pokktConfigJson )
   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("setPokktConfig",encoded)

3. Set GDPR consent in Pokkt SDK. This must be called before calling any ad related API. Developers/Publishers must get the consent from user. For more information on GDPR please refer https://www.eugdpr.org/ and https://www.eugdpr.org/gdpr-faqs.html . This API can again be used by publishers to revoke the consent. If this API is not called or invalid data provided then SDK will access the users personal data for ad targeting.

   local t = {
   ["GDPRConsentAvailable"] = <“true/false”>,
   ["GDPRApplicable"] = <“true/false”>
   }
   local encoded = json.encode( t )
   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("setDataAccessConsent",encoded)
   --GDPRConsentAvailable true if GDPR is applicable.
   --GDPRConsentAvailable true if user has given consent to use personal
   details for ad targeting.

4. If you are using server to server integration with Pokkt, you can also set Third Party UserId in PokktAds.

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("setThirdPartyUserId", "<unique user id>")

5. When your application is under development and if you want to see Pokkt logs and other informatory messages, you can enable it by setting setDebug to true. Make sure to disable debugging before release.

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Debugging_shouldDebug", "<true/false>")

Ad Types

Video

• Video ad can be rewarded or non-rewarded. You can either cache the ad in advance or directly call show for it.

• We suggest you to cache the ad in advance so as to give seamless play behaviour, In other case it will stream the video which may lead to unnecessary buffering delays depending on the network connection.

1. To cache rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("VideoAd_cacheRewarded","<ScreenName>")

2. To show rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("VideoAd_showRewarded","<ScreenName>")

3. To cache non-rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("VideoAd_cacheNonRewarded","<ScreenName>")

4. To show non-rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("VideoAd_showNonRewarded","<ScreenName>")

5. To check if video ad is cached:

   local jsondata = {
      ["screenName"] = <ScreenName>",
      ["isRewarded"] = <true/false>
   }
   local encoded = json.encode( jsondata )
   local isVideoCached = pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("VideoAd_isAdCached",encoded)

Interstitial

1. To cache rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Interstitial_cacheRewarded","<ScreenName>")

2. To show rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Interstitial_showRewarded","<ScreenName>")

3. To cache non-rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Interstitial_cacheNonRewarded","<ScreenName>")

4. To show non-rewarded ad call:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Interstitial_showNonRewarded","<ScreenName>")

5. To check if interstitial ad is cached:

   local jsondata = {
      ["screenName"] = screenEditText.text,
      ["isRewarded"] = true
   }
   local encoded = json.encode( jsondata )
   local isAdCached = pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Interstitial_isAdCached",encoded)
   infoText.text = "Interstitial Cached : "..tostring(isAdCached)

1. Load banner

   local jsondata = {
      ["screenName"] = “<screenName>”,
      ["bannerPosition"] = "8"
   }
   local encoded = json.encode( jsondata )
   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Banner_loadBanner",encoded)

2. Banner position values can be

   TOP_LEFT = "1"
   TOP_CENTER = "2"
   TOP_RIGHT = "3"
   MIDDLE_LEFT = "4"
   MIDDLE_CENTER = "5"
   MIDDLE_RIGHT = "6"
   BOTTOM_LEFT = "7"
   BOTTOM_CENTER = "8"
   BOTTOM_RIGHT = "9"

3. You can remove Banner using:

   pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("Banner_destroyBanner",“<screenName>”)

Ad Delegates

Ad delegates are optional, but we suggest to implement them as it will help you to keep track of the status of your ad request.

local function listener( event )
   print( "Received event from Pokkt Library plugin (" .. event.name .. "): ",
event.params )
end
pokktlibrary.init( listener )

Pokkt ad player configuration

Pokkt Ad player works the way App is configured at Pokkt dashboard, but we provide a way to override those settings using PokktAdPlayerViewConfig.

Application should prefer configuration provided through code by developer or what’s configured for the app in dashboard, can be controlled any time through the dashboard itself. If you want to make changes to this configuration after your app distribution, you can contact Pokkt Team to do the same for your app through admin console.

local adPlayerConfigJson = {
   ["backButtonDisabled"] = false,
   ["defaultSkipTime"] = 10,
   ["shouldAllowSkip"] = true,
   ["shouldAllowMute"] = true,
   ["shouldSkipConfirm"] = true,
   ["skipConfirmMessage"] = "Skipping this video will earn you NO rewards. Are you sure?",
   ["skipConfirmYesLabel"] = "Yes",
   ["skipConfirmNoLabel"] = "No",
   ["skipTimerMessage"] = "You can skip video in ## seconds",
   ["incentiveMessage"] = "more seconds only for your reward !",
   ["shouldCollectFeedback"] = true,
   ["isAudioEnabled"] = true
}
local encoded = json.encode( adPlayerConfigJson )
pokktlibrary.NotifyPokkt("setAdPlayerViewConfig",encoded)

Various setters for the properties that can be managed through this are:

1. Back button Defines if user is allowed to close the Advertisement by clicking on back button or not. Setter Name: setBackButtonDisabled(boolean backButtonDisabled) Values: True = Back button is disabled and user cannot close the Ad. False = Back button is not disabled and user can close the Ad.
