Syntax

inMobi.show( placementID [, params] )

Parameter Reference

The params table can include properties for positioning a banner ad. This does not apply to interstitial ads.

Example

local inMobi = require( "plugin.inMobi" )

-- Pre-declare a placement ID
local placementID = "PLACEMENT_ID"

local function adListener( event )

    if ( event.phase == "init" ) then  -- Successful initialization
        -- Load a banner ad
        inMobi.load( "banner", placementID )

    elseif ( event.phase == "failed" ) then  -- The ad failed to load
        print( event.type )
        print( event.placementId )
        print( event.isError )
        print( event.response )
    end
end

-- Initialize the InMobi plugin
inMobi.init( adListener, { accountId="YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID" } )

-- Sometime later, check if the ad is loaded
if ( inMobi.isLoaded( placementID ) ) then
    -- Show the ad
  inMobi.show( placementID, { yAlign="bottom" } )
end
