Core SDK

Introduction

The Core SDK provides the fundamental fields and methods for initializing and configuring the Maestro Roku SDK. These configurable fields and functions serve as the entry point for integrating the SDK into your Roku application and allow you to configure behavior, manage event lifecycles, and control the panel.

SDK Component

The Maestro Roku SDK is distributed as a remote ComponentLibrary. Once loaded, you create the main panel component:

m.lib = createObject("roSGNode", "MaestroPanelLib:MaestroPanel")

Key Responsibilities

• SDK Configuration: The config field initializes the SDK with your site ID, event ID, authentication tokens, and environment settings. This is typically set after configuring other fields and triggers the API requests.

• Event Lifecycle Management: The userDidStartWatchingEvent field manages the lifecycle of events, triggering a new panel session when a user switches to different content.

• Panel Control: Fields like width, height, displayQRCodes, and functions like setPanelFocus() control the panel's appearance and behavior.

• Data Management: The setDataToPanel field allows you to push external data into specific panels, while getDataFromPanel() retrieves data using a polling model.

• Resource Cleanup: The destroySDK() function performs a clean teardown, removing all listeners and freeing resources when you're done with the SDK.

Configurable Fields

These fields are set by the client application to control SDK behavior:

Field	Type	Description
config	assocArray	Primary configuration object; triggers Maestro config fetch
displayQRCodes	boolean	Enables/disables QR code display
fetchDataOnInit	boolean	Fetch panel data on load (default: true)
handleLoadingSceneAction	string	Communicates loading actions to your app
height	integer	Panel height; alias of panelManagerView.height
sendTestOverlay	string	"fantasy" or "bet" triggers an overlay test event
setDataToPanel	assocArray	Pushes external data into panel (depends on panel type)
userDidStartWatchingEvent	string	Used when user switches content; triggers new panel session
userSettings	assocArray	Override default panel/overlay/user behavior
width	integer	Panel width; alias of panelManagerView.width

Public Functions

These functions can be called to control SDK behavior:

Function	Description
destroySDK()	Clean teardown; removes all listeners
getDataFromPanel()	Returns panel data (polling model)
onPlayerTimeCodeUpdated()	Passes player timecode to SDK
setPanelFocus()	Moves Roku focus into the panel

Usage Pattern

The typical initialization pattern follows these steps:

1. Load the ComponentLibrary
2. Create the MaestroPanel node
3. Observe essential fields (trackingEvent, errorInformation, etc.)
4. Set configurable fields (width, height, displayQRCodes)
5. Set the config object (triggers initialization)
6. Append the panel to your scene

sub onLibraryLoadStatusChanged()
    if m.componentLibrary.loadStatus = "ready"
        m.lib = createObject("roSGNode", "MaestroPanelLib:MaestroPanel")

        ' Observe fields
        m.lib.observeField("trackingEvent", "onTrackingEvent")
        m.lib.observeField("errorInformation", "onErrorInformation")

        ' Set dimensions
        m.lib.width = 1280
        m.lib.height = 720

        ' Configure (must be last)
        m.lib.config = {
            siteID: "your-site-id",
            eventID: "your-event-id",
            useProdEnv: true
        }

        m.top.appendChild(m.lib)
    end if
end sub
