iOS and FirebaseCrashlytics

As of May 2020:

After Fabrics shut down, many developers faced such issues because Fabric was automatically creating the script to upload dSYM files from Xcode and we never pay attention to it.

Now as Fabric is replaced with FirebaseCrashlytics, in order to achieve this automatic mechanism, you can create a new run script and paste this script there:

"${PODS_ROOT}/FirebaseCrashlytics/upload-symbols" -gsp "${PROJECT_DIR}/GoogleService-Info.plist" -p ios "${DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH}/${DWARF_DSYM_FILE_NAME}"

This script will get the dSYM files and upload them to firebase servers so that you can see the crashes.

For multiple Schemes:

If your project has multiple schemes, you can simply create multiple such scripts by changing the path to the Google Plist file.

NOTE: You can also manually upload the dSYM files using upload-symbols tool [Check here], but it's always better to automate the process wherever we can.

EDIT: July 2020: When you see missing dSYM files for the crash in the Crashlytics dashboard, instead of getting the email for it, you can upload the dSYM file for the build as soon as you submit it for Apple review or for testing via Test Flight.

Missing dSYM is shown because when bitCode is enabled, the App Store Connect process the binary post uploading it and generates a new dSYM file.

You can find the dSYM file from the Activity section in the App Store Connect.

While implementing FirebaseCrashlytics(Currently is in beta) for Crashlytics

Add new run script from Build Phases and add the following :

"${PODS_ROOT}/FirebaseCrashlytics/run"

In Input Files sections add

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

and

$(SRCROOT)/path to/GoogleService-Info.plist

If you still get dSYM missing error then try to run from terminal

/path/to/pods/FirebaseCrashlytics/upload-symbols -gsp /path/to/GoogleService-Info.plist -p ios /path/to/dSYMs

For path to FirebaseCrashlytics and GoogleService-Info.plist drag and drop from the actual location For dSYMs path will be ${DWARF_DSYM_FOLDER_PATH}/${DWARF_DSYM_FILE_NAME}

To get that hit the command with your project .xcodeproj and target xcodebuild -project YourProject.xcodeproj -target YourTarget -showBuildSettings
and replace your specific path

Please take note of the following while implementing Crashlytics
1. Run application in release mode
2. While testing disconnect device from mac
3. Set correct GoogleService-Info.plist
4. If you rename it, make sure you set the correct file name whenever required.

After hours of struggling with this problem finally solved it using this approach:

use this command in Terminal: /path/to/pods/directory/FirebaseCrashlytics/upload-symbols -gsp /path/to/GoogleService-Info.plist -p ios /path/to/dSYMs

Important thing is instead of /path/to/pods/directory you should enter the path to your pods folder in your application folder, and instead of /path/to you should enter the path to the GoogleService-Info.plist which is in your project folder too. And the last one is, instead of /path/to/dSYMs you should enter the path to your archive which has the format of .xcarchive.

For finding the .xcarchive path, you should first archive your application, then go to XCode -> Organizer and select your build, then right click on it and select "Show in finder" and then right click on your .xcarchive file and select "Show package contents". This is it, you can copy this path and paste it instead of /path/to/dSYMs and then hit enter to start uploading to Firebase Crashlytics.

2020 FirebaseCrashlytics solution

You have two solutions :

1) From the command line

Go to your project folder and run :

./Pods/FirebaseCrashlytics/upload-symbols -gsp GoogleService-Info.plist -p ios <path_to_your_dsyms_zip>

You can get your dsym in Xcode organizer > right click on the archive > show in Finder -> Show content -> go to dsymm folder and compress it

2) From Xcode Build Phases

As described here (Firebase doc), you can add a Run Script phase in Xcode with this content :

"${PODS_ROOT}/FirebaseCrashlytics/run"

You also have to add these two input files under the run script :

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

and

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