Android Components > Service > Pocket

A library for easily getting Pocket recommendations that transparently handles downloading, caching and periodically refreshing Pocket data.

Currently this supports:

  • Pocket recommended stories.
  • Pocket sponsored stories.

Usage

  1. For Pocket recommended stories:

    • Use PocketStoriesService#startPeriodicStoriesRefresh and PocketStoriesService#stopPeriodicStoriesRefresh as high up in the client app as possible (preferably in the Application object or in a single Activity) to ensure the background story refresh functionality works for the entirety of the app lifetime.
    • Use PocketStoriesService.getStories to get the current list of Pocket recommended stories.

  2. For Pocket sponsored stories:

    • Use PocketStoriesService#startPeriodicSponsoredStoriesRefresh and PocketStoriesService#stopPeriodicSponsoredStoriesRefresh as high up in the client app as possible (preferably in the Application object or in a single Activity) to ensure the background story refresh functionality works for the entirety of the app lifetime.
    • Use PocketStoriesService.getSponsoredStories to get the current list of Pocket recommended stories.
    • Use PocketStoriesService,recordStoriesImpressions to try and persist that a list of sponsored stories were shown to the user. (Safe to call even if those stories are not persisted).
    • Use PocketStoriesService.deleteProfile to delete all server stored information about the device to which sponsored stories were previously downloaded. This may include data like network ip and application tokens.
    Pacing and rotating:

    A new PocketSponsoredStoryCaps is available in the response from PocketStoriesService.getSponsoredStories which allows checking currentImpressions, lifetimeCount, flightCount, flightPeriod based on which the client can decide which stories to show. All this is based on clients calling PocketStoriesService,recordStoriesImpressions to record new impressions in between application restarts.

Setting up the dependency

Use Gradle to download the library from maven.mozilla.org (Setup repository):

implementation "org.mozilla.components:service-pocket:{latest-version}"
