Mobile::Ads::Zestadz - module to serve Zestadz ads

Version 0.1.0

SYNOPSIS

Top

 use Mobile::Ads::Zestadz([$parent]);
 $ad = new Mobile::Ads::Zestadz
 ($text,$link,$image) = $ad->get_zestadz_ad({
				site	=> 'AdMob site code',
 				remote	=> $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'},
 				address	=> $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'},
 				text	=> 'default ad text',
 				link	=> 'default ad link',
 				test	=> 'set this if this is a test ad',
 				});

DESCRIPTION

Top

Mobile::Ads::Zestadz provides an object oriented interface to serve advertisements from AdMob in mobile sites. This was ported from VB code in their site

new Mobile::Ads::Zestadz

Top

[$parent]

To reuse Mobile::Ads in multiple (subsequent) ad requests, you can pass a Mobile::Ads reference here. Instead of creating a new Mobile::Ads object, we will use the one you pass instead. This might save a little LWP::UserAgent creation/destruction time.

Parameters/Properties

site

=> Zestadz site code, delivered by them. Something in the form off ``01234abcdef12345''

remote

=> Remote User Agent ($ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'}). In fact $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'} will be used if not supplied.

address

=> $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}. All things about HTTP_USER_AGENT also apply here.

text

=> Should we fail to retrieve a real ad, this is the text of the ad displayed instead

=> Same with text, but for the ad's link.

Methods

get_zestadz_ad

=> Does the actual fetching of the ad for the site given. Refer to new for details Returns a list ($text_for_ad,$link_for_ad) value in list context or an ``<a href="$link">$text</a>'' if called in scalar context.

BUGS

Top

Thoughtlessly crafted to avoid having the same piece of code in several places. Could use lots of enhancements.
