CRASHREPORTING.md

Firebase Crash reporting is deprecated - use Crashlytics if you can!

Enabling Crash Reporting / Crashlytics

Since version 5.3.0 you can choose either Crashlytics (recommended) or the older Firebase Crash Reporting (which doesn't really work on iOS). You will be prompted during installation of the plugin to enable either Crashlytics or Crash Reporting (both are off by default).

Note that if you want to use Crashlytics, make sure your firebase.nativescript.json file has "crashlytics": true and "crash_reporting": false, then remove the platforms folder so these changes are picked up.

Crashlytics API

sendCrashLog

Send a native iOS or Android exception to Crashlytics.

// either import like this:
import { crashlytics } from "nativescript-plugin-firebase"; // and do: crashlytics.sendCrashLog
// or this:
import { crashlytics as firebaseCrashlytics } from "nativescript-plugin-firebase"; // and do: firebaseCrashlytics.sendCrashLog
// or this:
import * as firebase from "nativescript-plugin-firebase"; // and do: firebase.crashlytics.sendCrashLog

import { isAndroid, isIOS } from "tns-core-modules/platform";

if (isAndroid) {
  crashlytics.sendCrashLog(new java.lang.Exception("test Exception"));
} else if (isIOS) {
  crashlytics.sendCrashLog(new NSError({
    domain: 'ShiploopHttpResponseErrorDomain',
    code: 42,
    userInfo: null
  }));
}

set*

Set a value that will be logged with an error and showing in the Firebase console on the 'Keys' tab of the error details.

import { crashlytics } from "nativescript-plugin-firebase"; // and do: crashlytics.sendCrashLog

crashlytics.setString("test_key", "test_value");
crashlytics.setBool("test_key_bool", true);
crashlytics.setInt("test_key_int", 2);
crashlytics.setDouble("test_key_double", 56615.55548465);
crashlytics.setFloat("test_key", 54646.45);

crashlytics.setUserId("user#42");
