Adpanel

An advert panel using GPT tags

Usage

This component expects an ES6 environment, and so if you are using this in an app, you should drop in a polyfill library - it has been tested with babel-polyfill but core-js or es6-shim may also work.

The default export is a React Component, so you can simply import the component and use it within some JSX, like so:

import Adpanel from '@economist/component-ad-panel';

return <Adpanel/>;

For more examples on usage, see src/example.es6.

Props and defaults:

  • adTag (required string): The DFP tag this points to. Often in the format of a URL. example: /5605/foo.bar/qux/x.
  • className (string): Add this className to ad-panel__container.

sizes={[ [ 60, 60 ], [ 70, 70 ], [ 300, 250 ], [ 1024, 768 ] ]} ``` (array of pairs of advertisement width, height): what ad sizes can be loaded. Is used as the size argument to googletag.defineSlot

sizeMapping={[ [[980, 200], [[1024, 768]]], [[0, 0], [[300, 250]]], ]} ``` (array of pairs of screen sizes [ width, height ] and advertisement sizes [ [width1, height1], [width2, height2], ... ] ): Each element in this array results in a call to sizeMapping().addSize

  • targeting (array of pairs of key/value strings): Defines the ad targeting. Each element corresponds to a call to setTargeting
  • reserveHeight (number of px): Sets a min-height to the ad, so as to avoid content jumps when the ad eventually comes around.
  • googletag (instance of the googletag object): Mostly a testing hook, but can be passed to avoid loading the DFP tag again, if it was already loaded.

Deprecation notice

The lazyload prop has been removed as the feature was making this component unmaintainable and bug-prone. From now on you can use the excellent react-lazy-load. Here's an example:

// Before:
<AdPanel lazyLoad {...otherProps} />

// After:
<LazyLoad>
  <AdPanel {...otherProps} />
</LazyLoad>

The animated prop has also been removed, and its relevant CSS with it. This feature can also be implemented very easily using LazyLoad (and some classNames):

// Before:
<AdPanel animated {...otherProps} />

// After:
class AnimatedAd extends React.Component {
  render() {
    const className = this.state && this.state.visible ?
      'animated-ad-wrapper animated-ad-wrapper--visible' :
      'animated-ad-wrapper';
    return (
      <div className={className}>
        <LazyLoad onContentVisible={() => { this.setState({ visible: true }) }}>
          <AdPanel {...this.props} />
        </LazyLoad>
      </div>
    )
  }
}
<AnimatedAd {...otherProps} />

Both work exactly the same.
