Background
In order to better diagnose issues with game crashes, it is possible to include debug symbols in the assets which are built and provide them to Google Play / Apple.
With these symbols provided, the crash reports in Google Play and in App Store connect will have more information allowing the developers to track down issues.
- To enable this for Android, we will need to build versions of the export templates with debug symbols enabled (unstripped) and then included in the AAB file.
- For iOS, it seems more straightforward (may need some testing) -
uploadSymbols in ExportOptions.plist will include dSYM - maybe already enabled.
Goal
Make it so that users can enable/disable debug symbols in both iOS and Android
Proposal
- Add an extra value to the
ProjectDetails object which can be edited with shipthis game details
- Users would enable this for both platforms at the same time with
shipthis game details --debugSymbols true
- The build server will need to pick this up and:
- For Android use the custom export templates with debug symbols enabled
- For iOS set the
uploadSymbols value in ExportOptions.plist
Prerequisites
TODO in this repo
- Update the type
ProjectDetails
- Update the
shipthis game details command
- Documentation updates (command reference & FAQ)
- Testing
