New Firebase Crashlytics disable in debug mode

Question

I have recently switched to new Firebase Crashlytics from Fabric one and I can't find alternative for disabling Crashlytics in debug mode.

Fabric:

val crashlytics = Crashlytics.Builder().core(CrashlyticsCore.Builder().disabled(BuildConfig.DEBUG).build()).build()
Fabric.with(this, crashlytics, Answers())

Anyone know answer? Ive seen that FirebaseCrashlytics class has its core set up internally now. I've tried FirebaseCrashlytics(CrashlyticsCore.??).getInstance(), but that kind of constructor is not working.

Also CrashlyticsCore class no longer has .Builder() available

Answer 1

I have tried once some time ago which worked for me . Add this to build.gradle.

android {
  buildTypes {
     debug {
        manifestPlaceholders = [crashlyticsCollectionEnabled:"false"]
        ...
     }

    release {
        manifestPlaceholders = [crashlyticsCollectionEnabled:"true"]
        ...
    }
  }
}

And then set this attribute in manifest .

<meta-data
        android:name="firebase_crashlytics_collection_enabled"
        android:value="${crashlyticsCollectionEnabled}" />

If you log manually also then you can use something like this at runtime :-

FirebaseCrashlytics.getInstance().recordException(RuntimeException("Invalidtoken"))

Also Check this out and crashlytics opt-in.
