Attachments

You can instruct the SDK to quietly attach any file to a bug report. The files you attach are not visible to the user in the SDK.

Introduction

Send yourself XMPP logs, a user's profile photo, or whatever helps you debug issues faster. You will see these files in the center of your web Dashboard

Methods

You can quietly attach files by using any of the methods described below.

Setting a custom filename and adding data

ShakeFile can be initialized with a filename (String) and data (NSData / Data). As custom data is provided, the file name cannot be automatically detected so it's mandatory.

Objective-C
Swift

let fileName: String = ...
let logData: Data = ...

Shake.onPrepareReportData = { shakeReportData in
  let attachedFile = ShakeFile(name: fileName, andData: fileData)
  shakeReportData.attachedFiles = [attachedFile]
  return shakeReportData
}

Setting a custom filename and then attaching a file

ShakeFile can also be initialized with a desired filename (String) and a local url (NSURL) to your file.

Objective-C
Swift

let fileName: String = ...
let fileUrl: URL = ...

Shake.onPrepareReportData = { shakeReportData in
  if let attachedFile = ShakeFile(name: fileName, andFileURL: fileUrl) {
    shakeReportData.attachedFiles = [attachedFile]
  }
  return shakeReportData
}

Just attaching a file

Or, you can initialize ShakeFile only with a local file url (NSURL), and the file name shown on the web Dashboard will be determined automatically from the passed file's URL.

Objective-C
Swift

let fileUrl: URL = ...

Shake.onPrepareReportData = { shakeReportData in
  if let attachedFile = ShakeFile(fileURL: fileUrl) {
    shakeReportData.attachedFiles = [attachedFile]
  }
  return shakeReportData
}

Limitations

The maximum number of attached files per bug is 1 for Free workspaces and 10 for Premium ones. If more files are attached, the SDK will successfully upload only some of them.

The maximum allowed individual size for any of those files is 5 MB. If you attach a file that's larger than that it won't be uploaded with the report.
