Open-Measurement-JSClients

Overview

This repository contains the client JavaScript code of Open Measurement SDK, also known as OM SDK JS. It has two primary components:

  • OMID JS Verification Client (omid-verification-client-v1.js) is used by verification scripts to communicate with OMID JS Service. It handles situations when the verification script runs in the same HTML document as the creative (in the top level of the webview), or in a cross-domain iframe, or in an invisible webview or DOM-less JavaScript execution environment for native ads. Verification scripts include the OMID JS Verification Client source code at build time (when the verification script is transpiled/minified).

  • OMID JS Session Client (omid-session-client-v1.js) is used by integration partners to perform ad session activities in the JavaScript layer. It functions both at the top level of the webview and in a cross-domain iframe. Ad SDKs include its source code into ad HTML at build time.

bin/

This folder will be ignored for code submissions (through .gitignore). The OMID JS Session Client binary (omid-session-client-v1.js) and the OMID JS Verification Client binary (omid-verification-client-v1.js) are generated here during a build.

package.json

npm configuration and build file.

Developer Setup

The JavaScript tools are managed using an NPM project. Google Closure compiler composes modules together and minifies the output JavaScript binary. Builds are automated with Gulp. Tests are written with Jasmine and executed with Karma.

Prerequisites

Clone the Repository

git clone [email protected]:InteractiveAdvertisingBureau/Open-Measurement-JSClients.git
cd Open-Measurement-JSClients

Install Tools

Running the following command will download and install the dependencies locally, into ./node_modules/:

npm install

Run npm list to see the tree of installed dependencies. Note: If you are experiencing issues here, check your version of npm via npm -v, specifically, ensure that you are using npm version 5.3.0. See "Prerequisites" above. After this step, the repo is ready to be built.

Building

Running the following command builds omid-session-client-v1.js, omid-verification-client-v1.js, and omid-compliance-verification-client-v1.js, locally in a new ./bin/ folder. Note that running build will always first remove any and all existing content in./bin/ prior to producing the output bundles.

npm run build

Consuming

The build products omid-session-client-v1.js and omid-verification-client-v1.js are UMD modules. Therefore, they can be consumed in CommonJS, Google Closure, and generic environments. The following examples show how the VerificationClient can be imported. The same logic can be applied to the SessionClient.

CommonJS

Make sure the require statement reflects the path to the omid-verification-client-v1.js file. The following example works when the omid-verification-client-v1.js file sits in the same directory as the example source file.

const Omid = require('./omid-verification-client-v1');
const {OmidVerificationClient} = Omid;

Google Closure

Add the OMID source files to the Google Closure compiler (version 20200112.0.0 or later).

For the verification client these are:

  • public/src/common/**.js
  • public/src/verification-client/**.js

For the session client these are:

  • public/src/common/**.js
  • public/src/session-client/**.js

And the code for the verification client (similar pattern for the session client):

const OmidVerificationClient = goog.require('omid.verificationClient.VerificationClient');

Globals (generic approach)

Prior to running the example code, the omid-verification-client-v1.js must have already been loaded and run in the current context. This is what causes the global to be exported. One way of doing this is by using a <script\> tag.

<html>
  <head>
    <script src="./omid-verification-client-v1.js"></script>
    <script src="./your-verification-script.js"></script>
  </head>
  <body></body>
</html>

Another way to do this is by concatenating omid-verification-client-v1.js into the top of your-verification-script.js.

To access the VerificationClient API in your-verification-script.js, use the following:

const OmidVerificationClient =
    OmidVerificationClient && OmidVerificationClient['4.0.0'];

Example HTML Creatives

The html creatives are built as part of the main build script(npm run build), but can be built separately.

To build display creative:

npm run build-display-creative

To build video creative:

npm run build-video-creative

Testing

Unit Tests

To run all unit tests:

npm run test

or the shorthand alias:

npm t

It will bring up a Chrome instance orchestrated by the Karma runner, which will run the tests once, print the results, and exit.

Continuously Run Unit Tests

In order to have Karma runner loop forever, waiting for any changes in the production code or test code, use the following command.

npm run watch-unit-tests

Tracking Changes

During each release (in other words, a version number increase), a single commit is made to this repository with all of the changes. For a more readable summary of changes, consult the CHANGELOG.md.
