ASF SDK

The ASF SDK gives you the possibility to integrate on your application, transactions with AppCoins (APPC) tokens. Either by enabling in-app purchases with APPC tokens or by rewarding users with APPC tokens when your application is being used.

Abstract

This tutorial will guide you through the process of adding the ASF SDK as a dependency on your project. Then for each separate component of the SDK you can check our wiki pages IAB SDK and User Acquisition SDK.

The integration should be simple enough to be done in under 10 minutes. If this is not the case for you, let us know. The SDK is able to work in the mainnet. You can still use the Ropsten test network, meaning that APPC of all transactions do not have real monetary value, they are used solely for testing purposes.

Prerequisites

• In order for the ASF SDK to work, you must have an AppCoins compliant wallet installed.
• Minimum gradle plugin version is 3.0.1.
• Minimum build tools version is 26.0.1.
• The Android minimum API Level to use ASF SDK is 21 (Android 5.0).
• Basic understanding of RxJava not required but is recommended.

Build Script

In your project's buildscript, make sure you have the following:

buildscript {
  repositories {
    jcenter()
    google()
  }
  dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.0'

    // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
    // in the individual module build.gradle files
  }
}

allprojects {
  repositories {
    jcenter()
    google()
    maven { url "https://dl.bintray.com/asf/asf" }
  }
}

And in your app's buildscript, add the following dependency:

dependencies {
    api 'com.asfoundation:appcoins:0.4.5.18b'
}

Or

dependencies {
    api 'com.asfoundation:appcoins-iab:0.4.5.18b'
    api 'com.asfoundation:appcoins-ads:0.4.5.18b'
}

As an example, every time there is an update of the SDKs where no further integration needs to be done, the only thing that should be changed is the version. For example, when the next version is released, the dependencies that should be included in the app's buildscript are:

dependencies {
    api 'com.asfoundation:appcoins:0.4.5.19b'
}

Or

dependencies {
    api 'com.asfoundation:appcoins-iab:0.4.5.19b'
    api 'com.asfoundation:appcoins-ads:0.4.5.19b'
}

Size

As of version 0.4.5.18b, SDK weight is approximately as follows:

• SDK aar only (without dependencies) - 24KB.

App size increment after adding sdk (assuming no dependencies in common):

• Without Proguard: 4.5MB.
• With Proguard: 3.5MB.
