Timber
The sentry-android-timber
library provides Timber support for Sentry via Timber Tree that sends events and breadcrumbs to Sentry. Once this integration is configured you can use Timber’s static API.
The source can be found on GitHub.
Install
To add the Timber integration, manually initialize the Android SDK, then add the sentry-android-timber
dependency. Using Gradle:
implementation 'io.sentry:sentry-android:7.13.0'
implementation 'io.sentry:sentry-android-timber:7.13.0'
Configure
Configuration should happen as early as possible in your application's lifecycle.
import io.sentry.android.core.SentryAndroid
import io.sentry.android.timber.SentryTimberIntegration
import timber.log.Timber
// import BuildConfig
SentryAndroid.init(this) { options ->
if (!BuildConfig.DEBUG) {
// default values:
// minEventLevel = ERROR
// minBreadcrumbLevel = INFO
options.addIntegration(
SentryTimberIntegration(
minEventLevel = SentryLevel.ERROR,
minBreadcrumbLevel = SentryLevel.INFO
)
)
} else {
Timber.plant(Timber.DebugTree())
}
}
Verify
This snippet includes a HTTP Request and captures an intentional message, so you can test that everything is working as soon as you set it up:
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import java.lang.Exception
import timber.log.Timber
class MyActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
try {
throw Exception("This is a test.")
} catch (e: Exception) {
Timber.e(e);
}
}
}
Learn more about manually capturing an error or message, in our Usage documentation.
To view and resolve the recorded message, log into sentry.io and open your project. Clicking on the error's title will open a page where you can see detailed information and mark it as resolved.
