Meteor: Including Admob Interstitial Ads In Meteor App

I've been working on implementing Admob ads in my Meteor application with the help of the following question: Admob Question Is there a way to implement interstitial ads for an eve

Solution 1:

The way should be similar than what is exposed here: https://github.com/appfeel/admob-google-cordova/wiki/requestInterstitialAd

admob.requestInterstitialAd({publisherId:"ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/BBBBBBBBBB",interstitialAdId:"ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/IIIIIIIIII",tappxIdiOs:"/XXXXXXXXX/Pub-XXXX-iOS-IIII",tappxIdAndroid:"/XXXXXXXXX/Pub-XXXX-Android-AAAA",tappxShare:0.5,adSize:admob.AD_SIZE.SMART_BANNER,bannerAtTop:false,overlap:false,offsetStatusBar:false,isTesting:false,adExtras :            {},autoShowBanner:true,autoShowInterstitial:true},success,fail);

If it is about interstitials, just to ensure it is shown at the moment you want, you can call it with autoShowIntesrtitial: false and then implement the event listener:

var isInterstitialAvailable = false;

// Launch your appif (Meteor.isCordova && window.admob) {
  document.addEventListener('deviceready', function () {
    myAppRequestInterstitial();
  });
}

// Request interstitial, when your app is launched and after an interstitial has been shown to request the next onefunctionmyAppRequestInterstitial() {
  admob.requestInterstitialAd({
    publisherId:          "ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/BBBBBBBBBB",
    interstitialAdId:     "ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/IIIIIIIIII",
    adSize:               admob.AD_SIZE.SMART_BANNER,
    autoShowInterstitial: false
  }, success, fail);
}

// Get noticed if there is an interstitial prepared to be showndocument.addEventListener(admob.events.onAdLoaded, function (e) {
  if (e.adType == admob.AD_TYPE.INTERSTITIAL) {
    isInterstitialAvailable = true;
  }
});

// This is the function called by your eventfunctionmyEvent() {
  if (isInterstitialAvailable && isSomeOtherCondition) {
    admob.showInterstitialAd(success, fail);
  }
}

// Request next interstitialdocument.addEventListener(admob.events.onAdOpened, function (e) {
  if (e.adType == admob.AD_TYPE.INTERSTITIAL) {
    isInterstitialAvailable = false;
    admob.requestInterstitialAd(options, success, fail);
  }
});

You could also implement admob.events.onAdFailedToLoad and check for error code and depending on it, setTimeout(myAppRequestInterstitial, howManyMs);

Be carefull with this user case: user leaving the app (it can cause some problems). Just ensure it works fine in all cases.
