Google Analytics 4 (Android)
Dailymotion currently supports client-side integration with Google Analytics. It allows collecting client-side events from Android apps and send them to a Google Analytics account for further storage and analysis.
Implementation steps
1. Add the Analytics SDK to your app
In your module (app-level) Gradle file (usually <project>/<app-module>/build.gradle.kts or <project>/<app-module>/build.gradle), add the dependency for the Analytics library for Android:
dependencies {
// Import the BoM for the Firebase platform
implementation(platform("com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:33.1.0"))
// Add the dependency for the Analytics library
// When using the BoM, you don't specify versions in Firebase library dependencies
implementation("com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics")

2. Send events to Google Analytics
Check the dedicated guide to learn how to listen to events.
For example, to listen to onVideoEnd event, just implement the method onVideoEnd():
Dailymotion.createPlayer(
context = context,
playerId = "MY_PLAYER_ID",
playerSetupListener = object : Dailymotion.PlayerSetupListener{
...
},
videoListener = object : VideoListener {
override fun onVideoEnd(playerView: PlayerView) {
// video end event
}
}
)Declare the com.google.firebase.analytics.FirebaseAnalytics object at the top of your activity:
private lateinit var firebaseAnalytics: FirebaseAnalyticsInitialize it in the onCreate() method:
// Obtain the FirebaseAnalytics instance.
firebaseAnalytics = Firebase.analyticsSend event onVideoEnd:
Dailymotion.createPlayer(
context = context,
playerId = "MY_PLAYER_ID",
playerSetupListener = object : Dailymotion.PlayerSetupListener{
...
},
videoListener = object : VideoListener {
override fun onVideoEnd(playerView: PlayerView) {
// Create a Bundle to hold event parameters
val bundle = Bundle().apply {
putString("videoId", "MY_VIDEO_ID")
putString("event", "onVideoEnd")
putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.CONTENT_TYPE, "video_player")
}
// Log the event with the parameters
firebaseAnalytics.logEvent("DailymotionPlayer", bundle)
}
}
