The Inline Banner ad is implemented similarly to a standard banner ad. The format of the ad is dynamically chosen based on the screen id provided when loading the ad.

Classes and Interfaces

IKShowWidgetAdListener Interface

This interface manages ad event callbacks for when ads are displayed, fail to display, or are clicked:

  • onAdShowed(): Called when an ad is successfully shown.
  • onAdShowFail(error: IKAdError): Called when there is an error displaying the ad.
  • onAdClick(): Optional method to handle ad click events.

Implementation Steps

Add IkmWidgetAdView to the Layout

The first step in displaying a banner ad is to place an IkmWidgetAdView in the layout for the Activity or Fragment where the ad is to be shown.

  <com.ikame.android.sdk.widgets.IkmWidgetAdView
    android:id="@+id/adsView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:ikwad_preview_layout="@layout/shimmer_loading_banner" />

Load an ad

Once the IkmWidgetAdView is in place, the next step is to load an ad. That’s done with the loadAd() method in the IkmWidgetAdView class.The ad is identified by a specific screen, which acts as the ad unit ID. The IKShowWidgetAdListener listener handles the events that occur during the ad’s display process, such as successfully showing the ad or encountering a failure.

Reference

  com.ikame.android.sdk.widgets.IkmWidgetAdView#loadAd(String, IKShowWidgetAdListener)

Function Definition

  fun loadAd(
        screen: String,
        listener: IKShowWidgetAdListener?
)

Parameters

  • screen: considered as a unitId, our team will send you the screenAd list.
  • listener: IKShowWidgetAdListener Interface Manages callbacks for displaying widget ads, focusing on events for ad load success and failures.

Sample Usage 

  val adsView: IkmWidgetAdView? = findViewById(R.id.adsView)
adsView.attackLifecycle(this.lifecycle)
adsView.loadAd(
        "banner_screen_id",
        object : IKShowWidgetAdListener {
            override fun onAdShowed() {}
            override fun onAdShowFail(error: IKAdError) {
                adsView?.visibility = View.GONE
            }
        }
)
  
  IkmWidgetAdView adsView = findViewById(R.id.adsView);
adsView.attackLifecycle(getLifecycle());
adsView.loadAd("banner_screen_id", new IKShowWidgetAdListener() {
            @Override
            public void onAdShowed() {

            }

            @Override
            public void onAdShowFail(@NonNull IKAdError ikAdError) {

            }

            @Override
            public void onAdClick() {

            }
        });

Recall load current ad

When IkmWidgetAdView has successfully loaded an Ad, if you want to show another ad at this location. Please use the following function to avoid losing old Ads that have been displayed.

#Reference

  com.ikame.android.sdk.widgets.IkmWidgetAdView#reCallLoadAd

#Function Definition

  fun reCallLoadAd(listener: IKShowWidgetAdListener?)

Sample Usage 

   if (adsView.isAdLoaded) {
            adsView.reCallLoadAd(object : IKShowWidgetAdListener {
                override fun onAdShowed() {
                }

                override fun onAdShowFail(error: IKAdError) {
                }

                override fun onAdClick() {
                }
            })
        }
  
  if (adsView.isAdLoaded()) {
            adsView.reCallLoadAd(new IKShowWidgetAdListener() {
                @Override
                public void onAdShowed() {
                    
                }

                @Override
                public void onAdShowFail(@NonNull IKAdError ikAdError) {

                }

                @Override
                public void onAdClick() {

                }
            });
        }

Destroy Ad

In certain scenarios, AdView can be prone to memory leaks. Therefore, it is essential to destroy the ad when your Fragment or Activity is destroyed to manage resources properly.

Reference

  com.ikame.android.sdk.widgets.IkmWidgetAdView#destroyAd()

Function Definition

  fun destroyAd()

Sample usage 

  override fun onDestroy() {
    super.onDestroy()
    adsView?.destroyAd()
}
  
    @Override
    protected void onDestroy() {
        super.onDestroy();
        adsView.destroy();
    }
