Google Analytics Module for AMP iOS
This module’s goal is to ease the integration of Google Interactive Media Ads and the Akamai AMP Player for iOS. With just some simple steps a few steps we can achieve this integration, let’s see how.
Installation
Just import the AmpGoogleAnalytics.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 AmpGoogleAnalytics
Then, let’s add the related variables in our UIViewController
:
var ampPlayer: AmpPlayer!
var ampGA: AmpGoogleAnalytics!
Instantiating Google Analytics is a bit different because their SDK works with a static reference, we provide a helper to facilitate it’s configuration.
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.handleUrl(url)
// Get a reference of the static Google Analytics SDK
self.ampGA = AmpGoogleAnalytics.sharedInstance
// Attach an instance of AmpPlayer to the Google Analytics SDK
self.ampGA.attach(self.ampPlayer!)
And that’s basically it, with just those few steps, you have a working integration between AMP and Google Analytics.
