SDK Integration​

info

Starting with SDK version 5.0.1 there is no need to include this extra repository since the library is being published to mavenCentral repository.

In the project build.gradle file, add the following:

allprojects {
     repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://cherry-repo.com/repository/releases/"
        }
     }  
}

Or in the *project settings settings.gradle.kts:

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositories {
        maven(url = "https://cherry-repo.com/repository/releases/")
    }
}

In the app module's build.gradle file -> under "dependencies" -> add the line:

implementation 'com.outbrain.mobile:obsdk:5.1.0'

Or in the app module `build.gradle.tks:

dependencies {
// Outbrain
    implementation(libs.obsdk)
    implementation(libs.otto)
}

Google Mobile Ads (GMA) Integration​

Outbrain SDK includes Google Ads SDK, which requires APPLICATION_ID to be included in the AndroidManifest.xml file, for example:

<meta-data
            android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
            android:value="ca-app-pub-9939518381636264~1092563270" />
warning

Please note, if APPLICATION_ID is missing the app will crash in runtime with an error message: Missing application ID. AdMob publishers should follow the instructions...

In case your app already includes GMA SDK and has a value for APPLICATION_ID, you can override Outbrain default value by adding tools:replace="android:value" like so:

<meta-data
    tools:replace="android:value"
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
    android:value="ca-app-pub-9939518381636264~1092561111" />

It basically tells the build system to replace the value of APPLICATION_ID with the one provided in the app's AndroidManifest.xml file.
