Sentry-Android - Sentry Client for Android

It does what every Sentry client needs to do

Below is an example of how to register Sentry-Android to handle uncaught exceptions

<!-- REQUIRED to send captures to Sentry -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

<!-- OPTIONAL but makes Sentry-Android smarter -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

	@Override
	public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
		super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
		setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

		// Sentry will look for uncaught exceptions from previous runs and send them		
		Sentry.init(this.getApplicationContext(), "YOUR-SENTRY-DSN");

	}

}

How To Get Started

Download the Sentry-Android JAR - 1.1.4
Place the JAR in the Android project's "libs" directory
Code

This Is How We Do It

Permissions in manifest

The AndroidManifest.xml requires the permission android.permission.INTERNET and would like the permission android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE even though optional.

<!-- REQUIRED to send captures to Sentry -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

<!-- OPTIONAL but makes Sentry-Android smarter -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

Capture a message

Sentry.captureMessage("Something significant may have happened");

Capture a caught exception

try {
	JSONObject obj = new JSONObjet();
} catch (JSONException e) { 
	Sentry.captureException(e);
}

Capture custom event

Sentry.captureEvent(new Sentry.SentryEventBuilder()
	.setMessage("Being awesome")
	.setCulprit("Josh Holtz")
	.setTimestamp(System.currentTimeMillis())
);

Set a listener to intercept the SentryEventBuilder before each capture

// CALL THIS BEFORE CALLING Sentry.init
// Sets a listener to intercept the SentryEventBuilder before 
// each capture to set values that could change state
Sentry.setCaptureListener(new SentryEventCaptureListener() {

	@Override
	public SentryEventBuilder beforeCapture(SentryEventBuilder builder) {
		
		// Needs permission - <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
		ConnectivityManager connManager = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
		NetworkInfo mWifi = connManager.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI);

		// Sets extra key if wifi is connected
		try {
			builder.getExtra().put("wifi", String.valueOf(mWifi.isConnected()));
			builder.getTags().put("tag_1", "value_1");
		} catch (JSONException e) {}
		
		return builder;
	}
	
});

Use for self hosted Sentry
