react-native-crash-reporter v0.5.0

react-native-crash-reporter

react-native-crash-reporter is a small library that hooks into the JavaScript error system and reports the unrolled stack trace to the native side. On the native side a callback will be called where the error information can be forwarded to a crash reporting system of choice. To be able to unroll the error it uses the sourcemap, which is automatically created while the React Native bundle is generated

Getting started

$ npm install react-native-crash-reporter --save

Mostly automatic installation

$ react-native link react-native-crash-reporter

Manual installation

iOS

1. In XCode, in the project navigator, right click Libraries ➜ Add Files to [your project's name]
2. Go to node_modules ➜ react-native-crash-reporter and add MSRCrashReporter.xcodeproj
3. In XCode, in the project navigator, select your project. Add libMSRCrashReporter.a to your project's Build Phases ➜ Link Binary With Libraries
4. Run your project (Cmd+R)<

Android

1. Open up android/app/src/main/java/[...]/MainApplication.java

• Add import net.mischneider.MSRCrashReporterPackage; to the imports at the top of the file
• Add new MSRCrashReporterPackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method

2. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:

   include ':react-native-crash-reporter'
   project(':react-native-crash-reporter').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, 	'../node_modules/react-native-crash-reporter/android')

3. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in android/app/build.gradle:

     compile project(':react-native-crash-reporter')

Usage

First is to define how the native part should handle crash reports. On Android register a listener on the MSRCrashReporterModule:

MSRCrashReporterModule.getInstance().setOnRecordCustomExceptionCallback(new MSRCrashReporterModule.OnCrashReporterRecordCustomExceptionCallback() {
    @Override
    public void recordCustomException(Exception e) {
        // TODO: Handle the exception
    }
});

On iOS register a listener block on the MSRCrashReporter singleton:

[MSRCrashReporter sharedReporter].recordCustomExceptionHandler = ^(NSString * _Nonnull name, NSString * _Nonnull reason, NSArray<MSRCrashReporterStackFrame *> * _Nonnull frameArray) {
    // TODO: Handle crash
};

Initialize the crash reporter usually in your index.js of your app:

import { init as initCrashReporting } from 'react-native-crash-reporter';

initCrashReporting({ captureOnDebugMode: false });
