ANDROID JAVA

Android Wear

Learn to install the Tealium SDK for Android Wear.

Requirements

  • AndroidWear app with Tealium for Android
  • Android (KitKat/4.4+ / API Level 20+ for Android Wear)
  • Tealium Customer Data Hub account

API Reference

For the complete reference of classes and methods for Android Wear, see the com.tealium.wear package in the Tealium SDK for Android API.

Sample App

To help familiarize yourself with the Tealium library, tracking methods, and best practice implementation, it is recommended to download the Tealium for AndroidWear sample app.

To abstract the Tealium implementation from the rest of your app, we recommend the use of the sample helper class. This gives you a single entry point from which to initialize and make tracking calls. It also allows you to update the code in your helper file and not in every single Java file.

Install

Install the Tealium library for your Android Wear app:

  1. Download and install Tealium for Android Wear.

  2. Add tealium.mobile-5.x.x.aar to your application’s dependencies.

    For non-wearable Android applications, no additional code is necessary.

  3. Create a subclass of the Application class, and add the TealiumWear’s initialization code in the app’s onCreate() method, as shown in the following example:

    public class WearApp extends Application {
    
       // Instance name from main app
       public static final String TEALIUM_MAIN = "INSTANCE_NAME";
    
       @Override
       public void onCreate() {
         super.onCreate();
         TealiumWear.createInstance(TEALIUM_MAIN,
             TealiumWear.Config.create(this)
             .setLogLevel(Log.VERBOSE));
       }
    //...
    }
    
  4. The value of TEALIUM_MAIN must match the instance name used in the initialization of the main application, as shown in the following example:

    // Main application initialization
    Tealium.createInstance("INSTANCE_NAME", config);
    
    // WearApp initialization
    public static final String TEALIUM_MAIN = "INSTANCE_NAME";
    

Tracking

Track Views

Tracking on the wearable is similar to the handheld side. The only difference is in how to pass custom data to the tracking calls. The wearable side uses a DataMap object, rather than a Map:

The trackView() method tracks screen views, as shown in the following example:

final DataMap data = new DataMap();
// ...
TealiumWear.getInstance(WearApp.TEALIUM_MAIN)
    .trackView("SCREEN_NAME", data);

Track Events

The trackEvent() method tracks non-view events, as shown in the following example:

final DataMap data = new DataMap();
// ...
TealiumWear.getInstance(WearApp.TEALIUM_MAIN)
    .trackEvent("EVENT_NAME", data);
