AIR Usage

For the complete AS3 code usage, see the demo project here.

/*
	Before initializing the GameServices ANE, you need to login users using the GoogleSignin ANE
	https://github.com/myflashlab/GoogleSignIn-ANE
*/

// depending on your app design, you must customize the Signin Options
// If you want GoogleGames signin only, do like below:
var options:GSignInOptions = new GSignInOptions();
options.gamesSignIn = true; // set to true if you are working with Google Games Services ANE.

// you don't want to bother users with a permission page, right? so set these to false 
// and don't ask for extra access scopes.
options.requestId = false;
options.requestProfile = false;
options.requestEmail = false;

// IMPORTANT: if you are not using Game Save Snapshots, you would not need GScopes.DRIVE_APPFOLDER
options.requestScopes = [
	"https://www.googleapis.com/auth/games", // must be set for games
	GScopes.DRIVE_APPFOLDER // optional and only needed if you are using Game Save Snapshots
];

// then pass the options to the initialization method of the GSignIn ANE
GSignIn.init(options);

// Finally, add listeners
GSignIn.listener.addEventListener(GSignInEvents.SILENT_SIGNIN_SUCCESS, onSilentSigninSuccess);
GSignIn.listener.addEventListener(GSignInEvents.SILENT_SIGNIN_FAILURE, onSilentSigninFailure);
GSignIn.listener.addEventListener(GSignInEvents.SIGNIN_SUCCESS, onSigninSuccess);
GSignIn.listener.addEventListener(GSignInEvents.SIGNIN_FAILURE, onSigninFailure);
GSignIn.listener.addEventListener(GSignInEvents.SIGNOUT_SUCCESS, onSignoutSuccess);
GSignIn.listener.addEventListener(GSignInEvents.SIGNOUT_FAILURE, onSignoutFailure);

// check if user is already loggedin or not
var account:GAccount = GSignIn.signedInAccount;
if(account)
{
	initGames(); // here, you will initialize the GameServices ANE
}
else
{
	// You should first check if user can signin silently, if she can't, use the signin() method
	GSignIn.silentSignIn();
}

function onSigninSuccess(e:GSignInEvents):void
{
	trace("e.account.scopes: "+ e.account.scopes);
	initGames();
}

function onSilentSigninSuccess(e:GSignInEvents):void
{
	initGames();
}

When user signed in successfully, call Games.init(); to initialize the GameServices ANE. And then listen to GamesEvents.CONNECT_SUCCESS events before calling other methods of this ANE. Make sure you are reading the Wiki to learn how you should use different features of this ANE.
