HouseAds2

A library (V2) for cross-promoting your own Android apps inside your own Android apps — banner ads, interstitial ads and a rating dialog, all driven by a JSON file you host yourself. No ad network, no revenue share, no tracking.

(V1 here: https://github.com/p32929/MyHouseAdsAndroid)

Features

• Banner + interstitial house ads served from a JSON file you control
• Change the ads without shipping an update — edit the JSON, every install picks it up
• Rating dialog that asks for feedback by email before sending unhappy users to the Play Store
• Auto-rotating banners on a timer you set
• No third-party SDK — it just fetches your JSON and draws views

How to use:

Steps:

• Initialize
• Show ads

Installation

Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

	allprojects {
		repositories {
			...
			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		}
	}

Add the dependency

dependencies {
	        implementation 'com.github.p32929:HouseAds2:1.0.0.16'
	}

Code Example:

Initialization:

If you just want to show interstitial ads , initialize like this:

HouseAds houseAds = new HouseAds(this,
                "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/p32929/SomeHowTosAndTexts/master/HouseAdsJson/house_ads2.json"
        );

If you want to show both interstitial ads and banner ads, initialize like this:

HouseAds houseAds = new HouseAds(this,
                "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/p32929/SomeHowTosAndTexts/master/HouseAdsJson/house_ads2.json",
                linearLayout
        );

To show interstitial ad on back press:

houseAds.showInterAds();

The banner ad will be added on the json data load.

If you want to change the banner ads every n seconds:

houseAds.autoChangeBannerAds(seconds);

If you want to show a Rating Dialog before sending the user to the Google Play Store, you need to set a feedback email using setFeedbackEmail method like this:

houseAds.setFeedbackEmail("p32929@gmail.com");

The JSON data should be like this:
