  1. Why? ๏ Improved debugging during development ๏ Track down crashes

    in asynchronous code ๏ Improved privacy JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 2
  2. Legacy ๏ Visible in Xcode ๏ Visible in the Console.app

    application JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 4
  3. Swift print("Hello!") ๏ Visible in Xcode ๏ Not visible in

    the Console.app application JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 5
  4. Logging Levels Level Enabled Initially stored On bu!er full Debug

    ! ! ! Info ✅ Memory ! 1 Default ✅ Memory Disk Error ✅ Disk Disk Fault ✅ Disk Disk 1 Except when an error occurs JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 8
  5. To disk ๏ You can find a .tracev3 file that

    contains the logs inside of /var/db/diagnostics. ๏ Data stores instead of text-based files. ๏ When date storage is exceeded oldest messages are purged JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 9
  6. Usage ๏ Level: Debug ๏ High volume debugging during development

    ๏ Console.app: ⚫ JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 10
  7. Usage ๏ Level: Info ๏ Additional info that will be

    captured during an error or faultent ๏ Console.app: ⚪ JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 11
  8. Usage ๏ Level: Default ๏ Log critical details to help

    debug issues ๏ Console.app: N/A JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 12
  9. Usage ๏ Level: Error ๏ Additional information capture from the

    app ๏ Console.app: ! JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 13
  10. Usage ๏ Level: Fault ๏ Additional information capture from the

    system ๏ Console.app: ! JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 14
  11. Subsystem & Category let logger = OSLog(subsystem: "com.icapps.logging", category: "Monkey")

    os_log("Hello ! ", log: logger) JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 15
  12. Privacy ๏ Prevents accidental leak of Personally Identifiable Information ๏

    Replaces dynamic strings, collections, arrays with a <private> keyword JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 16
  13. Privacy ๏ Primitive types are public by default, but can

    be made private with the <public> keyword JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 17
  14. Privacy let name: String = "Jake" os_log("Hi \(name)") // !

    os_log("Hi %@", name) // Hi <private> os_log("Hi %{public}@", name) // Hi Jake os_log("Hi %{private}d", someNumber) // Hi <private> JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 18
  15. Formatters os_log("Time: %{time_t}d", timeInterval) // 2016-01-12 19:41:37 os_log("UUID: %{uuid_t}.16P", uuid)

    // 2F6B8A25-A539-4320-A416-83649B8D50BC os_log("IPv4: %{network:in_addr}.16P", address) // 17.43.23.87 JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 19
  16. Overview ๏ Automatic formatting ๏ Automatic collecting file / function

    / line information ๏ Huge performance improvement compared to NSLog JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 21
  17. Best practices ๏ Keep the logs compact ๏ Use the

    formatters provided by Apple ๏ Don't wrap os_log in other functions ๏ Avoid dictionaries or arrays JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 23
  18. Activities ๏ What happens in async code ๏ Track down

    crashes ๏ Shows a clean trace in the Console.app JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 25
  19. Activities os_activity_create(...) ๏ Creates an activity ๏ Can be added

    to the current activity with OS_ACTIVITY_CURRENT JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 26
  20. Activity in Swift Should be bridged from Obj-C 2 !

    2 Luckely someone create a wrapper that can easily be used in Swift JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 29
  21. References ๏ WWDC 2016 Session ๏ Bridged Activity Gist ๏

    Unified Logging and Activity Tracing ๏ Activity Tracing JELLE VANDEBEECK / ICAPPS 31
