THEOplayer React-Native Comscore Connector

A Comscore analytics connector for @theoplayer/react-native.

Installation

npm install @theoplayer/react-native-analytics-comscore

Usage

Configuring the connector

Create the connector by providing the THEOplayer instance, a ComscoreConfiguration (which contains your publisher id) and the ComscoreMetadata of the first source you will set to the player (you can change it dynamically throughout the entire lifecycle of the connector):

import { useComscore } from '@theoplayer/react-native-analytics-comscore';

export const comscoreMetadata: ComscoreMetadata = {
    mediaType: ComscoreMediaType.longFormOnDemand,
    uniqueId: 'testuniqueId',
    length: 634.566,
    stationTitle: 'THEOTV',
    programTitle: 'Big Buck Bunny',
    episodeTitle: 'Intro',
    genreName: 'Animation',
    classifyAsAudioStream: false,
    customLabels: {
        testcustomlabel: 'testcustomvalue'
    }
};

const comscoreConfig: ComscoreConfiguration = {
    publisherId: '<your publisher id (aka c2 id)',
    applicationName: '<your app name>',
    userConsent: ComscoreUserConsent.granted,
    usagePropertiesAutoUpdateMode: ComscoreUsagePropertiesAutoUpdateMode.foregroundOnly,
    debug: true
};

const App = () => {
    const [comscore, initComscore] = useComscore(COMSCORE_METADATA, comscoreConfig);

    const onPlayerReady = (player: THEOplayer) => {
        // Initialize Comscore connector
        initComscore(player);
    };

    return <THEOplayerView config={playerConfig} onPlayerReady={onPlayerReady} />;
};

Passing metadata dynamically

The connector allows passing or updating the current asset's metadata at any time:

const onUpdateMetadata = () => {
    comscore.current.update({
        mediaType: ComscoreMediaType.longFormOnDemand,
        uniqueId: 'testuniqueId',
        length: 634.566,
        stationTitle: 'THEOTV',
        programTitle: 'Big Buck Bunny',
        episodeTitle: 'Intro',
        genreName: 'Animation',
        classifyAsAudioStream: false,
        customLabels: {
            testcustomlabel: 'testcustomvalue'
        }
    });
};

ComscoreMetadata fields

Based on the ComscoreMetadata type, you can tell which fields are mandatory and which aren't. Note that this is purely for the integration to work correctly. Depending on the Comscore solution you are using, different fields are required/optional. The mandatory fields in the ComscoreMetadata type are the ones that are mandatory for all three Comscore solutions:

• Video Metrix (V)
• Cross Platform Product Suite (X)
• Cross Media Audience Measurement (C)
