Prebid.js

Setup and manage header bidding advertising partners without writing code or confusing line items. Prebid.js is open source and free.

Many SSPs, bidders, and publishers have all contributed to this project.

Check out the overview and documentation at http://prebid.org.

No more week-long development. Header bidding is made easy by prebid.js :)

Example code

Include the prebid.js libraray Note that you need to host prebid.js locally or on a CDN and update the reference in the code snippet below for `cdn.host.com/prebid.min.js

(function() {
        var d = document, pbs = d.createElement('script'), pro = d.location.protocol;
        pbs.type = 'text/javascript';
        pbs.src = ((pro === 'https:') ? 'https' : 'http') + '://cdn.host.com/prebid.min.js';
        var target = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
        target.insertBefore(pbs, target.firstChild);
})();

Setup ad units

pbjs.que.push(function(){
	var adUnits = [{
        code: '{id}',
        sizes: [[300, 250], [300, 600]],
        bids: [
            {
                bidder: 'appnexus',
                params: {
                    placementId: '{id}'
                }
            }
        ]
    }];
	//add the adUnits
    pbjs.addAdUnits(adUnits);
});

Request Bids

pbjs.que.push(function(){
    pbjs.requestBids({
        bidsBackHandler: function(bidResponses) {
            //do stuff when the bids are back
        }
    })
});

See Console Debug Errors during testing By default console errors are supressed. To enabled add ?pbjs_debug=true to the end of the URL for testing.
