• Do iOS Get Started all the way until finishing step 35

Step Summary

1. Add the Initialization code for the SDK

2. Register all the app UIViewControllers to the SDK

3. Add the tagged Wrappers, and tagged Buttons using the accessabilityLabel

4. Note the transition events

5. Add the testing Single Data

6. Test everything is working

7. Change everything to production code

8. Your app is now prepared for monetization with us.

import UIKit
import R89SDK

@main
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {

    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        // This is for testing purposes, remove it on prod
        R89SDK.shared.setLogLevel(level: LogLevels.debug)
        // This is for testing purposes, remove it on prod
        R89SDK.shared.setDebug()
  
        addTestingSingleTagData()  /* This is a later step */
        
        R89SDK.shared.initialize(
            publisherId: "TestPublisherID", /* This is for testing purposes, change it on prod */
            appId: "TestAppId", /* This is for testing purposes, change it on prod */
            singleLine: true,
            publisherInitializationEvents: nil)
        return true
    }
}

Tagged Wrappers

Tagged Wrappers are the container inside which the ads will show, they are normal UIView wrappers with the accessabilityLabel attribute set. You need to add as many as you can, remember that placing a tagged wrapper does not mean we need to use it.

...

...

• Transition events are detected by the single tag automatically after initialization. They happen when a UIViewController is started/presented from another UIViewController.

• Button Presses when a button is pressed, this works They are presses are automatically detected by adding the android:tag attribute to the buttonsingle tag if the button’s accessibilityLabel is specified and has a corresponding configuration in the single tag data.

Example of transition:

This example demonstrates the automatic display of an interstitial ad during the transition from one screen to another (from InitialScreenViewController to NewsPostDetailScreenViewController).

Primarily the transition needs to be configured via the dashboard, but for testing purposes, it could be configured locally by using SingleTagConfigBuilder.shared instance in your code.

import UIKit
import R89SDK

@main
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
    ...
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        ...
        addTestingSingleTagData()  /* This is a later step */
        R89SDK.shared.initialize(...)
        return true
    }
    
    func addTestingSingleTagData(){
        // Add a Screen that is a UIViewController, the screenName you can get it by logging this in you code ->
        // in viewDidLoad you can use self.name ->
        // on InitialScreenViewController -> InitialScreenViewController
        // on NewsPostDetailScreenViewController -> NewsPostDetailScreenViewController
        
        let screenBuilder = SingleTagConfigBuilder.shared
            .addAdScreenBuilder(isFragment:false,screenName: "InitialScreenViewController")
        
        /* trigger interstitial when we transition from "InitialScreenViewController" (ScreenBuilder.screenName) TO NewsPostDetailScreenViewController */
        screenBuilder.addInterstitial(eventsToTrackTo: "NewsPostDetailScreenViewController",
                                      eventsToTrackButton: nil)
        ...
    }
    ...
}

Hence, the interstitial ad will be displayed whenever InitialScreenViewController presents InfiniteScrollViewController.

import UIKit
import R89SDK

class InitialScreenViewController: UIViewController {
    ...
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        ..
        R89SDK.shared.registerLifecycle(uiViewController: self)
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
    }
    
    @IBAction func presentNewsPostDetailScreen(_ sender: UIButton) {
        // On this transition event, the interstitial ad will be displayed.
        present(NewsPostDetailScreenViewController(), animated: true)
    }
    ...
}

Example of button press:

...

Example of button press:

This example shows how an interstitial ad is automatically displayed by intercepting the button press event. After the ad is closed, the button press event is forwarded as expected.

Primarily the button-press needs to be configured via the dashboard, but for testing purposes, it could be configured locally by using SingleTagConfigBuilder.shared instance in your code.

import UIKit
import R89SDK
@main
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
    ...
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        ...
        addTestingSingleTagData()  /* This is a later step */
        R89SDK.shared.initialize(...)
        return true
    }
    
    func addTestingSingleTagData(){
        let screenBuilder = SingleTagConfigBuilder.shared
            .addAdScreenBuilder(isFragment:false,screenName: "InitialScreenViewController")
        ...
        /* trigger an interstitial when a button with this tag is pressed in "InitialScreenViewControllerj" (ScreenBuilder.screenName) */
        screenBuilder.addInterstitial(eventsToTrackTo: nil,
                                      eventsToTrackButton: "play_video_trailer_tag")
    }
    ...
}

According to the above configuration, the play_video_trailer_tag must be specified inside the InitialScreenViewController for the button via the accessibilityLabel parameter.

...

Hereafter, the single tag will automatically trigger the display of an interstitial ad when the button press event occurs.

import UIKit
import R89SDK

class InitialScreenViewController: UIViewController {
    ...
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        isModalInPresentation = true
        R89SDK.shared.registerLifecycle(uiViewController: self)
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
    }
    
    // The button's press handler method
    @IBAction func playVideoTrailer(_ sender: UIButton) {
        // This method will be called after the interstitial ad is closed.
        ...
    }
    ...
}

...

Adding testing single tag data

Go back to the UIViewController AppDelegate class where we initialized the code, we are going to test all the transitions, tagged wrappers, and tagged buttons you have placed in the app.

Before the initialization method, we called addTestingSingleTagData() that which uses the SingleTagConfigBuilder to create the testing data needed for debugging the sdkSDK.

            screenName: "InitialScreenViewController")
        
        // Add a banner format to the wrapper with the tag bottom_ad_banner_container
        screenBuilder.addBanner(wrapperTag: "bottom_ad_banner_tagcontainer",
                                getAllWithTag: true,false, /* Only the first tagged wrapper in "InitialScreenViewController" with this tag will be used for this banner*/
                                wrapperRelativePositionInside: true, /* the ad will be placed inside of the wrapper */
                                wrapperRelativePositionAfter: false)
        
        /* trigger interstitial when we transition from "InitialScreenViewController" (ScreenBuilder.screenName) TO NewsPostDetailScreenViewController */
        screenBuilder.addInterstitial(eventsToTrackTo: nil, eventsToTrackButton: "button_tag")
    "NewsPostDetailScreenViewController",
                                      eventsToTrackButton: nil)
        
        /* trigger an interstitial when a button with this tag is pressed in "InitialScreenViewController" (ScreenBuilder.screenName) */
        screenBuilder.addInterstitial(eventsToTrackTo: "SecondSCreenViewController", eventsToTrackButton: nil)
}nil,
                                      eventsToTrackButton: "play_video_trailer_tag")
    }
    ...
}

Go into production

...

into production

...

• Remove the methods R89SDK.shared.setDebug() and addTestingSingleTagData() .

• Change the App id GADApplicationIdentifier in the info.plist for the production one.

• Change the appId and publisherId in the initialization method for the production ones.

• it’s also recommended to remove R89SDK.shared.setLogLevel(level: LogLevels.DEBUGdebug) but not needed.

How does it works?

We monitor your app to determine the active screen at any given moment. For each screen, we maintain a record of events and tags that you have supplied, enabling us to place ads in those tagged views or during specific transitions and events from the record.
