Buildbox 3.x and Appodeal Android integration.

If you are planning to use appodeal and have not signed up for an account yet please consider using my sponsor link: https://app.appodeal.com/utm_campaign=ambassador+2e42d36a308319ea421f0fdd7dd0d641

1. Export your Buildbox project. Make sure you select custom ad network in the project properties.
2. In the build.gradle add the repo for appodeal:

repositories {
    // ... other project repositories
    maven {
        url "https://artifactory.appodeal.com/appodeal"
    }
}

3. Add the networks you want to use under dependencies in the same file. You can use the wizard here to add the ones you want to use. Or just use the ones that I use:

implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk:core:2.8.1'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:a4g:2.8.1.7'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:adcolony:2.8.1.8'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:amazon_ads:2.8.1.2'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:applovin:2.8.1.9'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:admob:2.8.1.8'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:ironsource:2.8.1.8'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:mraid:2.8.1.2'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:smaato:2.8.1.4'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:unity_ads:2.8.1.7'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:vungle:2.8.1.5'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:chartboost:2.8.1.5'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:mopub:2.8.1.3'
implementation 'com.appodeal.ads.sdk.networks:tapjoy:2.8.1.6'

4. In the same file change the minSDKVersion to 19. You can skip this if all the networks you selected above support minSDKVersion 16. Click on “Sync Now” when done.

5. Add the compile options to the same file:

compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility 1.8
    targetCompatibility 1.8
}

6. In the android manifest enter your admob key and add the delay app measurement meta-data:

<meta-data
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
    android:value="ca-app-pub-xxxxx"/>

<meta-data
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.DELAY_APP_MEASUREMENT_INIT"
    android:value="true"/>

7. Replace the code in java->com->buildbox->adapter->custom->AdIntegrator with this code.

8. On the top of this file there is 1 line you need to change and a few others that you might want to change:

private String appodealKey = " "; //Required: your appodeal key.
private boolean hasConsent = false;
private int adTypes = Appodeal.INTERSTITIAL | Appodeal.REWARDED_VIDEO | Appodeal.BANNER; //Optional: remove types you are not using.
private int bannerPosition = Appodeal.BANNER_BOTTOM; //Optional: placement of banner.
private boolean isBannerVisible = false;

If you have any problems send me a note and I’ll try to figure it out.
