Google IMA
This module’s goal is to ease the integration of Google Interactive Media Ads and the Akamai AMP Player for iOS. With just a few steps we can achieve this integration, let’s see how.
Installation
Just import the AmpIMA.framework in your project. For more information check out the AmpCore’s documentation.
Note: Make sure to add the frameworks as Embedded Binaries or you’ll get an error about a missing image.
How to Use
Let’s first import the required frameworks:
import AmpCore
import AmpIMA
Then, let’s add the related variables in our UIViewController:
var ampPlayer: AmpPlayer!
var imaManager: AmpIMAManager!
And it’s time to instantiate them now, in your viewDidLoad function:
// Instantiate player
self.ampPlayer = AmpPlayer(parentView: self.view)
// Register yourself as an observer if required
self.ampPlayer.registerObserver(self)
self.ampPlayer.setLicense(license)
self.ampPlayer.play(url: YOUR_VIDEO_URL)
// Instantiate the IMA Manager after our player is created
self.imaManager = AmpIMAManager(ampPlayer: self.ampPlayer, videoView: self.ampPlayer.PlayerView!)
// Request your ads
self.imaManager.requestAds(adsUrl: adsUrl)
And that’s basically it, with just those few steps, you have a working integration between AMP and Google IMA.
