通过 Crashlytics 报告 Android 库中的崩溃

Question

I am building an android library that I plan to integrate into many 3rd party apps(which do not belong to me).

So, I am trying to figure out a way to find out if any of those 3rd party apps crashes due to the code in my library. Is there any way to find that out?

I was looking at Crashlytics to achieve the same. But, as I understand, Crashlytics will be able to give the Crash analytics to only the app owner, right? Is there any way to collect the crash info without the intervention of the 3rd party app?

Thanks.

EDIT: This isn't a duplicate of Integrating Crashlytics to library project because I want Crashlytics to be part of an android library which will sit on multiple android apps, but I want to be notified separately - not from the app which is installing my android library.

Answer 1

Mike from Fabric here. Adding Fabric or Crashlytics into a library that will be used by external developers is not supported and should not be done.

No, you cannot, at least without some hacking. Crashlytics should only be user in applications or library subproject ( https://docs.fabric.io/android/crashlytics/build-tools.html#set-up-a-library-subproject ). And you shouldn't, crashlytics group all the crashes by package name. Even if you with some hacking were able to include the crashlytics in your library you will probably receive also crashes from the application (not related with your library), and you will need to include and expose your API keys in your library... So you should not include crashlytics in a library.
