Firebase Crashlytics: Missing dsym files

Question

We've moved from fabric.io to Firebase and now the dsym files are always missing. This manual tries to help but I don't really understand it:

Manual: https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/get-deobfuscated-reports?authuser=0&platform=ios

So which line do I exactly need to implement in the build phases so it does it automatic? This one? find dSYM_directory -name "*.dSYM" | xargs -I {} $PODS_ROOT/Fabric/upload-symbols -gsp /path/to/GoogleService-Info.plist -p platform {}

But then my other questions: How can I find my dsym_directory? And I mean this is different for every build isn't it? And it also says:

Important: If you're working with an app that you previously linked from Fabric to Firebase Crashlytics, pass in your Fabric API Key to run the upload symbols script. That is, in the following options to run the script, use -a fabric-api-key instead of -gsp path/to/GoogleService-Info.plist.

So does this mean I can use the variable fabric-api-key or do I need to replace it exactly with my key? Can someone just help me and give the exact line I have to insert into the build phases?

Answer 1

28/May/2020 For me i work on this steps until dsym problem solved with me.

In the first Add Firebase Crashlytics to your app:

Open the podfile you created for your Firebase project and add the FirebaseCrashlytics pod

pod 'Firebase/Crashlytics'

pod 'Firebase/Analytics'

Then apply : pod install'

1. Create tow scripts as shown in image :

   In the first script write the next command:

   "${PODS_ROOT}/FirebaseCrashlytics/run"

and in inpute files add the tow input files:

• ${DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH}/${DWARF_DSYM_FILE_NAME}/Contents/Resources/DWARF/${TARGET_NAME}

• $(SRCROOT)/$(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)/$(INFOPLIST_PATH)

In the second script write the next command:

"find ${DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH}" -name "*.dSYM" | xargs -I \{\} "$PODS_ROOT/Fabric/upload-symbols" -gsp "$PODS_ROOT/../GoogleService-Info.plist" -p ios \{\}

if dSYM didn't work with you when you need to upload dSYM files by the terminal for first time at least.

The following steps explain how to upload a dSYM files to Firebase:

1. Download the .dSYMs from iTunes Connect:
2. Extract the "appDsyms" that you download it from your iTunes Connect.
3. Run the script from your terminal to upload dSYMs

/ path-to-your-project /Pods/FirebaseCrashlytics/upload-symbols -gsp / path-to-GoogleService-Info.plist /GoogleService-Info.plist -p ios / path-to-appDsyms-folder /appDsyms

Answer 2

I used find ${DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH}" -name "*.dSYM" before the script to find the dsyms.

"find ${DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH}" -name "*.dSYM" | xargs -I \{\} "$PODS_ROOT/Fabric/upload-symbols" -gsp "$PODS_ROOT/../GoogleService-Info.plist" -p ios \{\}

Answer 5

Alternative script to make sure the dsyns are uploaded correctly

1. Go to "Build Phases"
2. Create a new script in + -> "NewRun Script Phase"
3. Chech that it's always the last one
4. Copy and Past this script

set -e

echo "info: Exec Upload dSYM"
#Path for google service .plist 
GOOGLE_SERVICE_INFO_PLIST="${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${FULL_PRODUCT_NAME}/GoogleService-Info.plist"
#Path for DSYM directory
DSYM_PATH="$DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH/dddd/$DWARF_DSYM_FILE_NAME"
#Firebase command script
CMD=""
if [[ ${PODS_ROOT} ]]; then
  echo "info: Exec FirebaseCrashlytics Run from Pods"
  CMD="$PODS_ROOT/FirebaseCrashlytics/upload-symbols"
else
  echo "info: Exec FirebaseCrashlytics Run from framework"
  CMD="$PROJECT_DIR/FirebaseCrashlytics.framework/upload-symbols"
fi

echo "info: Checking if .plist exists"
if [ -f "$GOOGLE_SERVICE_INFO_PLIST" ]; then
    echo "info: $GOOGLE_SERVICE_INFO_PLIST exists."
else 
    echo "ERROR: $GOOGLE_SERVICE_INFO_PLIST does not exist."
    exit 1
fi

echo "info: Checking if .dSYM"
if [ -d "$DSYM_PATH" ]; then
    echo "info: $DSYM_PATH exists."
else 
    echo "ERROR: $DSYM_PATH does not exist."
    echo "info: try fallback"
    DSYM_PATH=` find "${DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH}" -name "*.dSYM" | xargs `
    if [ -d "$DSYM_PATH" ]; then
        echo "info: $DSYM_PATH exists."
    else 
        echo "ERROR: $DSYM_PATH does not exist."
        exit 1
    fi
fi
echo "info: Check if upload-symbols script exists"
if [ -f "$CMD" ]; then
    echo "$CMD exists."
else 
    echo "ERROR: $CMD does not exist."
    exit 1
fi

echo "info: Starting command upload-symbols"
"${CMD}" -gsp "$GOOGLE_SERVICE_INFO_PLIST" -p ios "$DSYM_PATH" > /dev/null 2>&1 &
echo "info: Symbol uploading will proceed in the background."
echo "info: remove '> /dev/null 2>&1 &' to test in the main thread and see if there are any errors, or open console and filter with 'upload-symbols'"
