  3. iOS Manual Implementation

The SDK provides a universal way to display advertisements inside the cell of scrollable controls, such as UITableView and UICollectionView.

Info

We need you to edit your item Layout, so it has a wrapper/holder for the Ads.
Keep in mind this wrapper/holder could be expanded or contracted, so make sure your layout adapts to this changes, this size changes in the layout will be limited by the ad configurations that your technical account manager can edit.

This is because we can not edit your data for adding new items to the adapter, so we take the existing item views and add the ads to them. You can customize which items have ads when you create the configuration for the infinite scroll.

...

The adWrapper will play the role of a wrapper inside the UITableViewCell’s cell's contentView.

Code Block
languageswift
class InfScrlViewCell: UITableViewCell {

    let label = UILabel()
    // This is the wrapper
    let adWrapper:UIView = {
        let view = UIView()
        // Specify the item ad tag here
        view.accessibilityLabel = "infiniteScroll_ad_wrapper_tag"
        return view
    }()
    
    override init(style: UITableViewCell.CellStyle, reuseIdentifier: String?) {
        super.init(style: style, reuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier)
        contentView.addSubview(label)
        // Added the wrapper to the item
        contentView.addSubview(adWrapper)
        // Setup the constraints
        ...
    }
    ...
}

...

The adWrapper will play the role of a wrapper inside the UICollectionView’s cell’s contentView.

Code Block
languageswift
class DynamicHeightCollectionViewCell:  UICollectionViewCell {
    
    let label = UILabel()
    
    let adWrapper: UIView = {
        let view = UIView()
        // Specify the item ad tag here
        view.accessibilityLabel = "infiniteScroll_ad_wrapper_tag"
        return view
    }()
    
    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)
        contentView.addSubview(label)
        // Added the wrapper to the item
        contentView.addSubview(adWrapper)
        // Setup the constraints
        ...
    }
    ...
}

...

Not a UITableView or UIControllerView

Get

...

infinite scroll ID

When not using a UITableView or UIControllerView we need to create the infinite scroll manually and use the returned id to show ads in each of the itemsfor each cell position.

Code Block
languageswift
   let infiniteScrollConfigIDinfiniteScrollConfigId = ConfigBuilder.companion.INFINITE_SCROLL_TEST_R89_CONFIG_ID
   let infiniteScrollId = RefineryAdFactory.shared.createManualInfiniteScroll(
        configurationID: infiniteScrollConfigIDinfiniteScrollConfigId,
        lifecycleCallbacks: nil)

...

Show ads in the item

Then in each itemcell, you will need to get the wrapper instance adWrapper and then use it to request the ad as well you will also need to tell the request method what the “item position number in the scroll”for the cell position.

Code Block
languageswift
let cellPosition = manualInfScrollViewCell.getPosition() 
let adWrapper = manualInfScrollViewCell.adWrapper

RefineryAdFactory.shared.getInfiniteScrollAdForIndex(
  infiniteScrollId: infiniteScrollId,
  itemIndex: Int32(cellPosition),
  itemAdWrapper: adWrapper,
  childAdLifecycle: nil
)
Note

Careful on the implementation ofgetPositionInScrollMethodRefineryAdFactory.shared.getInfiniteScrollAdForIndex()method.

This needs to be implemented according to your implementation of the infinite scroll.
If you have paginated content this position needs to account for that

EX: 20 items per page so first 20 items go from 0 to 19 and the first item of the second page is not 0 is 20

formula beeing -> pageItemIndex + (pageSize*currentPage)

so first item position of first page is 0 + (20*0)

item 0 plus 20 multiplied by the current page index, so page 1 has index 0

and first item position of the second page is 0 + (20*1)

item 0 plus 20 multiplied by the current page index, so page 2 has index 1

second item first page would be 1 + (20*0) = 1

second item second page would be 1 + (20*1) = 21

and so on

Lifecycle

...

events

You can subscribe to these events with the same method but passing a new object as a parameter. Details about this object can be found in the Reference.

Code Block
languageswift
import UIKit
import R89SDK

// 1. Extend from the Banner InfiniteScrollEventListener
class InfiniteScrollLifecycleListener: InfiniteScrollEventListener {
    ...
    override func onAdItemLoaded(itemIdInData: Int32) {
        // Ad has been loaded for the position
(itemIdInData)     }
    ...
}

class ViewController: UIViewController, UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
 
    var collectionView: UICollectionView!
    ...
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Configure the collection view layout
        ...
        let infiniteScrollConfigId = ConfigBuilder.companion.INFINITE_SCROLL_TEST_R89_CONFIG_ID
        RefineryAdFactory.shared.createInfiniteScroll(
          configurationID: infiniteScrollConfigId,
          scrollView: self.collectionView,
          scrollItemAdWrapperTag: "infiniteScroll_ad_wrapper_tag",
          // 2. Pass the InfiniteScrollLifecycleListener instance via lifecycleCallbacks
          lifecycleCallbacks: InfiniteScrollLifecycleListener())
