Introduction

BugShaker allows your QA team and/or end users to easily submit bug reports by shaking their device. When a shake is detected, the current screen state is captured and the user is prompted to submit a bug report via email with this screenshot attached.

This library is similar to Telescope, but aims to be even easier to integrate into your apps and workflows:

• all configuration occurs in your custom Application subclass (no view hierarchy alterations required);
• no need to request extra permissions;
• iOS version of this library is already available (based on the same shake-to-send mechanism).

Getting Started

1. Specify BugShaker-Android as a dependency in your build.gradle file:

   dependencies {
       implementation("com.github.stkent:bugshaker:{latest-version}")
   }
   

2. Configure the shared BugShaker instance in your custom Application class, then call assemble and start to begin listening for shakes:

   public class CustomApplication extends Application {
       @Override
       public void onCreate() {
           super.onCreate();
   
           BugShaker.get(this)
                    .setEmailAddresses("[email protected]")   // required
                    .setEmailSubjectLine("Custom Subject Line") // optional
                    .setAlertDialogType(AlertDialogType.NATIVE) // optional
                    .setLoggingEnabled(BuildConfig.DEBUG)       // optional
                    .setIgnoreFlagSecure(true)                  // optional
                    .assemble()                                 // required
                    .start();                                   // required
       }
   }
   

It is recommended that logging always be disabled in production builds.

Advanced Usage

If you would like to customize the alert dialog presented to users when a shake is detected, update your BugShaker configuration as follows:

• Remove any setAlertDialogType calls;
• Add a call to setCustomDialogProvider, passing in your own DialogProvider instance.
