Getting Started
Install the Gameball Android SDK into your app
Gameball's Android SDK enables you to use the show Gameball player profile in your app, track app player events, integrate referrals and display Gameball's in-app push notifications.
Follow the below steps to start installing Gameball's Android SDK to your app.
Add JitPack repository to your project's build.gradle (or settings.gradle if you're on newer versions) file.
dependencyResolutionManagement {
...
repositories {
...
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
Add the following dependency to the application's build.gradle file to import Gameball's SDK into your project.
dependencies {
...
implementation 'com.github.gameballers:gb-mobile-android:1.2.9'
}
Make sure that you added the INTERNET permission in your application's AndroidManifest.xml file as follows:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
...
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
...
</manifest>
The SDK uses Firebase Dynamic Links to track referrals and Firebase Messaging for sending push notifications, you'll need to add the following dependencies.
dependencies {
...
// Make sure to include this dependency even if you won't include Firebase Messaging
implementation platform('com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:<latest_version>')
// Firebase Dynamic Links only - must be included
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-dynamic-links"
// Firebase Messaging only - optional depending on whether or not you want to use FCM
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging'
}
For the latest Firebase SDK (BOM, Cloud Messaging, Deep Links, and Google Services) versions check their release notes.
You also need to add google-services plugin to your application.
App's build.gradle file:
plugins {
...
id 'com.google.gms.google-services'
}
Project's build.gradle file:
buildscript{
...
dependencies {
...
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:<latest_version>'
}
}
Don't forget to include your google-services.json to your app root after registering it to a Firebase project.
