React GPT

A React component for Google Publisher Tags.

Browser Requirements

• IE10+

Features

• Supports all rendering modes (single request mode, async rendering node and *sync rendering mode)
• Supports responsive ads.
• Supports interstitial ads.
• Supports lazy render.

* Synchronous rendering requires that the GPT JavaScript be loaded synchronously.

Installation

$ yarn react-gpt

React GPT depends on Promise to be available in browser. If your application support the browser which doesn't support Promise, please include the polyfill.

Getting Started

Import React GPT and pass props to the component.

import {Bling as GPT} from "react-gpt";

class Application extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <GPT
                adUnitPath="/4595/nfl.test.open"
                slotSize={[728, 90]}
            />
        );
    }
}

You at least need to pass adUnitPath and one of slotSize and sizeMapping.

Enabling Single Request Mode

To enable Single Request Mode, call Bling.enableSingleRequest() before rendering any ad. It defaults to Asynchronous Rendering Mode if not set.

import {Bling as GPT} from "react-gpt";

GPT.enableSingleRequest();

class Application extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <div id="ad-1">
                <GPT
                    adUnitPath="/4595/nfl.test.open"
                    slotSize={[728, 90]}
                />
            </div>
            <div id="ad-2">
                <GPT
                    adUnitPath="/4595/nfl.test.open"
                    slotSize={[300, 250]}
                />
            </div>
        );
    }
}

The above example will make one request to the server to render both ads which makes it easier to ensure category exclusion.

Responsive ad

If you pass sizeMapping props instead of slotSize, React GPT listens for the viewport width change and refreshes an ad when the break point is hit.

import {Bling as GPT} from "react-gpt";

class Application extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <GPT
                adUnitPath="/4595/nfl.test.open"
                sizeMapping={[
                    {viewport: [0, 0], slot: [320, 50]},
                    {viewport: [750, 0], slot: [728, 90]},
                    {viewport: [1050, 0], slot: [1024, 120]}
                ]}
            />
        );
    }
}
