Firebase Crash reporting has been deprecated since plugin version 5.3.0 and was removed in plugin version 9.0.0 - use Crashlytics instead.

Enabling Crashlytics

You will be prompted during installation of the plugin to enable Crashlytics (off by default). This will add "crashlytics": true to your firebase.nativescript.json file, now remove the platforms folder so this change is picked up.

Enabling Opt-In Crashlytics Collection (GDPR, anyone?)

Since plugin version 8.3.0 you can disable Crashlytics collection by default, and enabled it at runtime.

Add this to your AndroidManifest.xml and this to your Info.plist, so it's disabled by default.

You can then either pass crashlyticsCollectionEnabled: true in firebase.init(), or call crashlytics.setCrashlyticsCollectionEnabled(true) to enabled Crashlytics collection for the user.

Configuration in the Firebase Console

When setting up Crashlytics, select "This app is new to Crashlytics" and press "Next". Then the screen changes to something like "waiting for your first crash report". Then produce a crash, and it can easily take a day before that screen changes (later data comes in much quicker).

Crashlytics API

`sendCrashLog`

Send a native iOS or Android exception to Crashlytics.

// either import like this:
import { crashlytics } from "nativescript-plugin-firebase"; // and do: crashlytics.sendCrashLog
// or this:
import { crashlytics as firebaseCrashlytics } from "nativescript-plugin-firebase"; // and do: firebaseCrashlytics.sendCrashLog
// or this:
import * as firebase from "nativescript-plugin-firebase"; // and do: firebase.crashlytics.sendCrashLog

import { isAndroid, isIOS } from "tns-core-modules/platform";

if (isAndroid) {
  crashlytics.sendCrashLog(new java.lang.Exception("test Exception"));
} else if (isIOS) {
  crashlytics.sendCrashLog(new NSError({
    domain: 'ShiploopHttpResponseErrorDomain',
    code: 42,
    userInfo: null
  }));
}

`set*`

Set a value that will be logged with an error and showing in the Firebase console on the 'Keys' tab of the error details.

import { crashlytics } from "nativescript-plugin-firebase";

crashlytics.setString("test_key", "test_value");
crashlytics.setBool("test_key_bool", true);
crashlytics.setInt("test_key_int", 2);
crashlytics.setDouble("test_key_double", 56615.55548465);
crashlytics.setFloat("test_key", 54646.45);

crashlytics.setUserId("user#42");

`log`

Add a message that will be logged with an error and showing int he Firebase console on the 'Logs' tab of the error details.

crashlytics.log("more log info...");

`crash`

For easier testing, version 8.2.0 exposed this crash() function of the native Firebase Crashlytics SDKs:

import { crashlytics } from "nativescript-plugin-firebase";

crashlytics.crash();

This should crash your app unless you have discardUncaughtJsExceptions set to true in app/package.json.
