Class ReferralReceiver

java.lang.Object

android.content.BroadcastReceiver

com.kochava.base.ReferralReceiver

Deprecated.

As of 3.3.0, because Google has introduced a new way of retrieving the Install Referrer. You should also continue using this broadcast receiver until Google completes the transition.

public final class ReferralReceiver
extends android.content.BroadcastReceiver

Google Play Install Referrer Receiver.

Single Receiver

If the Kochava Tracker broadcast receiver is the only receiver for the action "com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER" in your app no further action is required.

Multiple Receivers

For apps that contain other broadcast receivers for the action "com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER" some manual steps are required.
First you must remove the default Kochava ReferralReceiver by adding the following within the application tags in your manifest.

 
 <receiver
     tools:node="remove"
     android:name="com.kochava.base.ReferralReceiver">
 </receiver>
 
 

Then create a forwarding Broadcast Receiver.

 

 import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
 import android.content.Context;
 import android.content.Intent;
 import com.kochava.base.ReferralReceiver;

 public class MyBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

     public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

         // Pass the intent to the Kochava receiver.
         new ReferralReceiver().onReceive(context, intent);

         // Pass the intent to other receivers.

     }
 }
 
 

Finally add the forwarding receiver to your manifest. Adjust the android:name field to match the package and name of your broadcast receiver.

 
 <receiver android:name ="com.mypackage.MyBroadcastReceiver"
     android:enabled="true"
     android:exported ="true">
     <intent-filter>
         <action android:name ="com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER" />
     </intent-filter>
 </receiver>
