Description

The idea is to provide common Ads interface for most of available ad frameworks, so that user's would not have to create a plugin for each of them separately, but rather it would be possible to wrap ad framework in single Java or Objective-C class (depending on the platform) and add it to the project, without even recompiling existing Ads Interface plugin.

Additionally it would be able to support multiple ad frameworks simultaneously so users could switch and fall back between ad frameworks on runtime.

More information available in [1](Ads interface guide).

Examples

Creating fallbacks with Ads frameworks

--require plugin
require "ads"

--initialize amazon
amazon = Ads.new("amazon")
amazon:setKey("amazon-key")

--initialize admob
admob = Ads.new("admob")
admob:setKey("admob-key")

--if amazon fails
--show admob
amazon:addEventListener(Event.AD_FAILED, function(e)
	print("amazon AD_FAILED", e.error)
	admob:showAd("auto")
end)

--if admob fails
--show amazon
admob:addEventListener(Event.AD_FAILED, function(e)
	print("admob AD_FAILED", e.error)
	amazon:showAd("auto")
end)

--start displaying amazon ads
amazon:showAd("auto");
