About
Pulse is not a tool, it's a framework. It records events from URLSession or from frameworks that use it, such as Alamofire, and displays them using PulseUI views that you integrate directly into your app. This way Pulse console is available for everyone who has your test builds. You or your QA team can view the logs on the device and easily share them to attach to bug reports.
What Pulse is Not
Pulse is not a network debugging proxy tool like Proxyman, Charles, or Wireshark. It won't automatically intercept all network traffic coming from your app or device. And to view logs in realtime, you need to use PulseUI.framework that you integrate into your app. The dedicated Pulse iOS and macOS also use PulseUI.framework and are there to view logs manually shared from other devices.
Documentation
Pulse is easy to learn and use:
- Pulse Docs describe how to integrate the main framework and enable logging
- PulseUI Docs contains information about adding the debug menu and console into your app
- PulseLogHandler Docs describe how to use Pulse as SwiftLog backend
Pulse Pro
