HeyZap plugin

ar2rsawseen · June 2013

In collaboration with http://heyzap.com here is a plugin for whole Heyzap combo:
https://github.com/ar2rsawseen/GiderosHeyzap

Heyzap offers a great combo of leaderboard and achievement management (even between apps). Additionally it also provides Ads and a way to checkin your app with options to posting to Twitter and Facebook. Thats all for both Android and IOS platforms.

And now available to Gideros.

ar2rsawseen · June 2013

Great work! I'm Jake from Heyzap and we're excited to open our SDK to the Gideros community. If there are any questions at all about our ads or other services, don't hesitate to ping me directly at jake(at)heyzap.com.

@ar2rsawseen would you be able to create the one app, use "Application:getDeviceInfo" to detect the device, then call the appropriate plugin ?
I was going to ask a similar question when calling either Googlebilling or storekit. I'm gathering you all code for both ios and android in the same deployment.

ArtLeeApps · June 2013

@ar2rsawseen ive used AdMob in a Native Android app, this is placed in the Manifest file..... so in future would be able to use HeyZap for Ads from within the App ?
That would be great as you could have a "purchase" to remove the ads!

And this would handle Facebook Login/Authorisation/Posts from within the app (that would be excellent) i was looking at the Facebook API as that was the next thing i was going to try out.

albert988 · June 2013

sounds nice,great job~

ar2rsawseen · June 2013

@unlying I know there is a lack of docs right now

For Android you firstly need to call

heyzap:init(true)

Which would
1) initialize plugin
2) true - tells that you will be using ads, so it loads additional stuff

For IOS you would also need to specify appId (which would be ignored by Android) like this:

heyzap:init(true, "id123123123")

ar2rsawseen · June 2013

@ArtLeeApps yes basically that is used to load platform specific codes like:

isAndroid = false
if application:getDeviceInfo() == "Android" then
    isAndroid = true
end

And then in your code you can use something like:

if isAndroid then
    require "googlebilling"
else
    require "storekit"
end

but this heyzap plugin was actually developed to maximize crossplatformability sharing similar if not the same api

ArtLeeApps · June 2013

@ar2rsawseen Excellent stuff!

unlying · June 2013

I give a try to HeyZap and i'm not really happy right now. They pays for installs.
Admob brings me 2,5$ for 1000 requests in this game.

ar2rsawseen · June 2013

@unlying theoretically they provide ads based on users social preferences, which can theoretically increase install rate. Maybe your users are simply not part of HeyZap social engine, thus the recommended ads for them are not quite working.

But any how, there are also leaderboards and achievements to provide social engagement

unlying · June 2013

I replace ads from start of game to exit. Results become slightly better.

unlying · June 2013

Just want to share with you statistic for a week of using heyzap. My game earns 40$ for 10 days. It is not much, but it is still money. I'll implement it to more games.

ar2rsawseen · June 2013

Well that is actually quite good, so you are satisfied with HeyZap after all?

unlying · June 2013

@ar2sawseen yes, it is ok. Admob brings me more money from that game(about 9$ daily), but additional 4$ in a day is good. Total with purchases it will be about 15$ daily.

hgvyas123 · June 2013

@unlying : so does ur income is increasing or decreasing as in the past you had mentioned that you are getting very good downloads and you also have two games with > 5 lakh downloads just curious

unlying · June 2013

@hgvyas123 Yes, my income is increasing. I have 3 games with 500 000+ downloads now. I'm fine, but want more:)

hgvyas123 · June 2013

wow kool

jdbc · July 2013

I am trying to integrate HeyZap in Android device, but I get the following error:

Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Cannot load library: reloc_library[1312]: 94 cannot locate 'gevent_RemoveEventsWithGid'...

It seems the library libheyzap.so can not be loaded, may be a new HeyZap SDK version?

I have tried to compile libkeyzap.so using ndk-build and Android.mk but I found an error in cpp files.

Thanks in advance.

ar2rsawseen · July 2013

@jdbc it seems you are missing some Gideros header files which include functions like gevent_RemoveEventsWithGid
can you post the full logcat output please

and I'll check if there were changes in HeyzapSDK

jdbc · July 2013

This is my logcat output attached as a text file.

Must I copy header files into Android project? I assume only libheyzap.so is needed.
I am using Gideros 2012.09.10 and HeyZap SDK 5.5.1

ar2rsawseen · July 2013

if you are copying existed compiled .so libs then no you don't need headers, but you project should also contain libgideros.so in the same folders you copied libheyzap.so (mentioning just in case

)

jdbc · July 2013

if you are copying existed compiled .so libs then no you don't need headers, but you project should also contain libgideros.so in the same folders you copied libheyzap.so (mentioning just in case )

I have copied existing libheyzap.so (from github) and libgideros.so (export project) in both libs/armeabi and libs/armeabi-v7a folders. I supposed it was a problem with a new HeyZap SDK.

So I used ndk-build from GiderosHeyZap/AndroidPlugin/jni folder I get some errors in compilation:

SharedLibrary : libheyzap.so
/home/jdbc/source/gideros/GiderosHeyzap/AndroidPlugin/obj/local/armeabi/objs/heyzap/heyzap.o: In function `GHeyzap::callback(int, void*)':
/home/jdbc/source/gideros/GiderosHeyzap/AndroidPlugin/jni/heyzap.cpp:176: undefined reference to `gevent_CallbackList::dispatchEvent(int, void*)'
/home/jdbc/source/gideros/GiderosHeyzap/AndroidPlugin/obj/local/armeabi/objs/heyzap/heyzap.o: In function `GHeyzap::onAdReceived()':
/home/jdbc/source/gideros/GiderosHeyzap/AndroidPlugin/jni/heyzap.cpp:132: undefined reference to `gevent_EnqueueEvent'

fxone · July 2013

@ar2rsawseen It would be great to see on github original, good working version of HeyZap SDK, and also info about version of Gideros SDK. I remember similar problems with Chartboost plugin. It could be pattern for all Gideros plugins.

jdbc · July 2013

It seems my problem is with Gideros version, because libheyzap.so does not find gideros functions.

What version of Gideros must I used? I am using 2012.9.10

I have tested with libgideros.so of Gideros 2012.09.9 and it works!!

hgvyas123 · July 2013

not sure but i think we should not have to replace libgideros.so and might be replacing this libgideros.so is the problem

jdbc · July 2013

I do not understand, but now it is not working even changing libgideros.so for a previous version.

ar2rsawseen · July 2013

Tested and it works with the latest Heyzap SDK.
It should have worked with both version, but yes @hgvyas123 is right, better only copy libheyzap.so and always use libgideros.so which was exported with project
Because if libgideros.so has other version than gideros.jar it may have some internal conflict like this
