Revision history [back]

I've progressed with implementing an open source wrapper for Vserv RESTful advertisement API in QML.

Quote from API description:

Vserv provides a simple HTTP based API to publishers/developers and other ad networks, etc. to fetch ads for mobile sites or mobile applications. The mobile device / server makes a HTTP request to Vserv Marketplace server with the required parameters and in response receives the ad in JSON format. This single API integration gives you the flexibility to fetch banner/ full screen / rich media ads.

Available implementation is in pre-beta phase - quite majority of functionality works but there is still room for improvement.

Since I'm not so experienced in this area of sw development - and especially newbie in Sailfish native development - I would like to ask some help from the community in finishing it.

It would be a general purpose QML wrapper around the API with necessary tailoring is needed for Sailfish - e.g. Webkit vs. WebView, etc. Maybe separate git branches are needed for different implementation(?) - I'm open for any reasonable proposal.

Is there anybody willing to join? Reviewing, commenting - and of course, coding is more than welcome. [This is my first open source project, so comment from this aspect is welcome, too.]

API descrption is here, code repository is in BitBucket

Yes, I know, in-app advertisement is evil, donation rulez, blablabla - but the fact is without predictable monetization options - if ads are predictable at all - it is really hard to get developers on board in mass. Let the people decide...
