Latest Version

1.2

Versions listed in https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/fr.lemonde/capping/versions

Requirements

minSdkVersion 26

Setup

Add to your build.gradle file

implementation "fr.lemonde:capping:1.2"

Initiate SDK

Capping.getInstance(applicationContext).initialize([BASE_URL], [YOUR_API_KEY])

If you want to configure the sdk you can also add a CappingSDKConfiguration object

Capping.getInstance(applicationContext).initialize([BASE_URL], [YOUR_API_KEY], configuration)

User

To identify an user you will need to set an unique identifier with setUserId(id: String).

Use the SDK

You can access the CappingSDK with Capping.getInstance(context).

The component responsible for displaying the capping UI should use

Capping.getInstance(this).startSession()

and

Capping.getInstance(this).stopSession()

You can register to lock change you can attach a listener with attachListener(). Don’t forget to detachListener() when you don’t need it anymore or when your ui component is destroyed.

If you want to enable your user to take control of the session you can use

Capping.getInstance(this).continueReading()

Runtime properties

User

You can change the userId at runtime with method setUserId(id: String).

Mode (default value: CappingMode.READING)

You can change the CappingMode at runtime with method setMode(CappingMode.READING|CappingMode.DEVICE).

Tolerance (optional, default value: 0)

Tolerance is a number representing the number of simultaneous session in the day before receiving a block event. If you need to change the tolerance you can use setTolerance(tolerance). By default the capping tolerance will be 0.

Active (optional, default value: true)

If you need to disable the capping service at runtime your can use setActive(false). By default the capping will be active.

Auto unblock (optional, default value: true)

Indicates whether the CappingLock should be automatically unlocked when the current session switches from blocked to unblocked. Disable it if you don’t want a capped user to be automatically uncapped when its current session becomes the active one.

capping.setAutoUnblock(<true|false>)

Conversion event handling

If you want to track an event you can use the provided trackEvent function.

Example with the conversion event:

cappingService.trackEvent(CappingEvent.conversion) (CappingEvent.conversion or CappingEvent.popinDisplayed)

N.B.: the previous trackConversionEvent has been deprecated and will be removed in a future update.
