crashpad_database_util(1)

Name

crashpad_database_util—Operate on Crashpad crash report databases

Synopsis

crashpad_database_util [OPTION…]

Description

Operates on Crashpad crash report databases. The database’s settings can be queried and modified, and information about crash reports stored in the database can be displayed.

When this program is requested to both show and set information in a single invocation, all “show” operations will be completed prior to beginning any “set” operation.

Programs that use the Crashpad client library directly will not normally use this tool, but may use the database through the programmatic interfaces in the client library. This tool exists to allow developers to manipulate a Crashpad database.

Options

  • --create

    Creates the database identified by --database if it does not exist, provided that the parent directory of PATH exists.

  • -d, --database=PATH

    Use PATH as the path to the Crashpad crash report database. This option is required. The database must already exist unless --create is also specified.

  • --show-client-id

    Show the client ID stored in the database’s settings. The client ID is formatted as a UUID. The client ID is set when the database is created. crashpad_handler(8) retrieves the client ID and stores it in crash reports as they are written.

  • --show-uploads-enabled

    Show the status of the uploads-enabled bit stored in the database’s settings. crashpad_handler(8) does not upload reports when this bit is false. This bit is false when a database is created, and is under an application’s control via the Crashpad client library interface.

    See also --set-uploads-enabled.

  • --show-last-upload-attempt-time

    Show the last-upload-attempt time stored in the database’s settings. This value is 0, meaning “never,” when the database is created. crashpad_handler(8) consults this value before attempting an upload to implement its rate-limiting behavior. The database updates this value whenever an upload is attempted.

    See also --set-last-upload-attempt-time.

  • --show-pending-reports

    Show reports eligible for upload.

  • --show-completed-reports

    Show reports not eligible for upload. A report is moved from the “pending” state to the “completed” state by crashpad_handler(8). This may happen when a report is successfully uploaded, when a report is not uploaded because uploads are disabled, or when a report upload attempt fails and will not be retried.

  • --show-all-report-info

    With --show-pending-reports or --show-completed-reports, show all metadata for each report displayed. Without this option, only report IDs will be shown.

  • --show-report=UUID

    Show a report from the database looked up by its identifier, UUID, which must be formatted in string representation per RFC 4122 §3. All metadata for each report found via a --show-report option will be shown. If UUID is not found, the string "not found" will be printed. If this program is only requested to show a single report and it is not found, it will treat this as a failure for the purposes of determining its exit status. This option may appear multiple times.

  • --set-report-uploads-enabled=BOOL

    Enable or disable report upload in the database’s settings. BOOL is a string representation of a boolean value, such as "0" or "true".

    See also --show-uploads-enabled.

  • --set-last-upload-attempt-time=TIME

    Set the last-upload-attempt time in the database’s settings. TIME is a string representation of a time, which may be in yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss format, a numeric time_t value, or the special strings "never" or "now".

    See also --show-last-upload-attempt-time.

  • --new-report=PATH

    Submit a new report located at PATH to the database. If PATH is "-", the new report will be read from standard input. The new report will be in the “pending” state. The UUID assigned to the new report will be printed. This option may appear multiple times.

  • --utc

    When showing times, do so in UTC as opposed to the local time zone. When setting times, interpret ambiguous time strings in UTC as opposed to the local time zone.

  • --help

    Display help and exit.

  • --version

    Output version information and exit.

Examples

Shows all crash reports in a crash report database that are in the “completed” state.

$ crashpad_database_util --database /tmp/crashpad_database \
      --show-completed-reports
23f9512b-63e1-4ead-9dcd-e2e21fbccc68
4bfca440-039f-4bc6-bbd4-6933cef5efd4
56caeff8-b61a-43b2-832d-9e796e6e4a50

Disables report upload in a crash report database’s settings, and then verifies that the change was made.

$ crashpad_database_util --database /tmp/crashpad_database \
      --set-uploads-enabled false
$ crashpad_database_util --database /tmp/crashpad_database \
      --show-uploads-enabled
false

Exit Status

  • 0

    Success.

  • 1

    Failure, with a message printed to the standard error stream.
