2. Crashes
3. Crashlytics
4. Crashlytics • Automatic crash reporting
5. Crashlytics • • Automatic crash reporting But no limited to crash reporting
6. Recording Non-fatal exceptions
7. Recording Non-fatal exceptions try { // some code can throw an exception } catch (e: Exception) { Log.d(TAG, e.localizedMessage) }
8. Recording Non-fatal exceptions try { // some code can throw an exception } catch (e: Exception) { Log.d(TAG, e.localizedMessage) }
9. Recording Non-fatal exceptions try { // some code can throw an exception } catch (e: Exception) { FirebaseCrashlytics.getInstance().recordException(e) }
10. Recording Non-fatal exceptions private class CrashReportingTree : Timber.Tree() { }
11. Recording Non-fatal exceptions private class CrashReportingTree : Timber.Tree() { override fun log(priority: Int, tag: String?, message: String, t: Throwable?) { } }
12. Recording Non-fatal exceptions private class CrashReportingTree : Timber.Tree() { override fun log(priority: Int, tag: String?, message: String, t: Throwable?) { if (priority == Log.ERROR && t != null) { FirebaseCrashlytics.getInstance().recordException(t) } } }
13. Recording Non-fatal exceptions class MainApplication : Application() { override fun onCreate() { super.onCreate() Timber.plant(CrashReportingTree()) } }
14. Recording Non-fatal exceptions try { // some code can throw an exception } catch (e: Exception) { FirebaseCrashlytics.getInstance().recordException(e) }
15. Recording Non-fatal exceptions try { // some code can throw an exception } catch (e: Exception) { Timber.e(e) }
16. Understanding Crashes Better
17. Analytics
18. Analytics • We normally use analytics in isolation from crash reporting
19. Analytics • • We normally use analytics in isolation from crash reporting Usually PMs check the analytics and Devs check the crashes
20. Analytics • • • We normally use analytics in isolation from crash reporting Usually PMs check the analytics and Devs check the crashes What if you can combine them to get a full view?
21. Analytics
22. Analytics
23. Analytics binding.zoomImage.setOnClickListener { MixpanelAPI.track("Zoom button clicked") }
24. Analytics binding.zoomImage.setOnClickListener { MixpanelAPI.track("Zoom button clicked") FirebaseAnalytics.getInstance(context) .logEvent("Zoom button clicked", mapOf("page", "map")) }
25. Analytics interface AnalyticsProvider { fun track( analyticEvent: String, properties: Map<String, Any?>? = null ) }
26. Analytics class FirebaseAnalyticsProvider( private val rebaseAnalytics: FirebaseAnalytics ): AnalyticsProvider { override fun track(analyticEvent: String, properties: Map<String, Any?>?) { rebaseAnalytics.logEvent(analyticEvent, properties) } }
27. Analytics class FirebaseAnalyticsProvider( private val rebaseAnalytics: FirebaseAnalytics ): AnalyticsProvider { override fun track(analyticEvent: String, properties: Map<String, Any?>?) { rebaseAnalytics.logEvent(analyticEvent, properties) } }
28. Analytics class AnalyticsManager { private val analyticsProviders = mutableListOf<AnalyticsProvider>() fun addProvider(provider: AnalyticsProvider) { analyticsProviders.add(provider) } }
29. Analytics class AnalyticsManager { //... fun track(analyticEvent: String, properties: Map<String, Any?>?) { analyticsProviders.forEach { provider -> provider.track(analyticEvent, properties) } } }
30. Analytics binding.zoomImage.setOnClickListener { analyticsManager.logEvent( "Zoom button clicked", mapOf("page", "map") ) }
31. Feature Flags
32. What's a feature ag?
33. What's a feature ag? if (isNewFeatureEnabled) { // allow access to shiny new feature } else { // prevent access to shiny new feature }
34. Use cases
35. Use cases • A/B Testing
36. Use cases • • A/B Testing Rolling out new features
37. Use cases • • • A/B Testing Rolling out new features Rolling out rewrite of existing features
38. Use cases • • • • A/B Testing Rolling out new features Rolling out rewrite of existing features Merge Work-in-progress features
39. Types of Feature Flags?
40. Types of Feature Flags? • Static
41. Types of Feature Flags? • • Static Decided at build time
42. Types of Feature Flags? • • • Static Decided at build time Based on things like versionCode, buildVariant, etc
43. Types of Feature Flags? • • • • Static Decided at build time Based on things like versionCode, buildVariant, etc Dynamic
44. Types of Feature Flags? • • • • • Static Decided at build time Based on things like versionCode, buildVariant, etc Dynamic Can be controlled at runtime either locally using dev settings
45. Types of Feature Flags? • • • • • • Static Decided at build time Based on things like versionCode, buildVariant, etc Dynamic Can be controlled at runtime either locally using dev settings Or remotely via services like Firebase Remote Con g
47. Show me code!!
48. interface Con g { val key: String val default: Boolean val description: String }
49. enum class FeatureFlags( override val key: String, override val default: Boolean, override val description: String ): Con g
50. enum class FeatureFlags( override val key: String, override val default: Boolean, override val description: String ): Con g { NEW_CHECKOUT_FLOW( "checkout_ ow_v2", true, "Enable checkout ow V2 for trending items" ) }
51. interface FeatureFlagProvider { fun getValue(featureFlag: FeatureFlag): Boolean }
52. class FirebaseFeatureFlagProvider: FeatureFlagProvider { private val remoteCon g = FirebaseRemoteCon g.getInstance() override fun getValue(featureFlag: FeatureFlag): Boolean { return remoteCon g.getBoolean(featureFlag.key) } }
53. class RemoteCon gManager( private val featureFlagProvider: FeatureFlagProvider ) { fun isFeatureEnabled(featureFlag: FeatureFlag) = featureFlagProvider.getValue(featureFlag) }
54. if (remoteCon gManager.isFeatureEnabled(NEW_CHECKOUT_FLOW)) { // allow access to shiny new feature } else { // prevent access to shiny new feature }
55. Using Feature Flags effectively
56. Using Feature Flags effectively • De ne success metrics
57. Using Feature Flags effectively • • De ne success metrics Less Crashes?
58. Using Feature Flags effectively • • • De ne success metrics Less Crashes? Smoother experience?
59. Using Feature Flags effectively • • • • De ne success metrics Less Crashes? Smoother experience? Implement using your Analytics library (like Mixpanel)
60. Using Feature Flags effectively • • • • • De ne success metrics Less Crashes? Smoother experience? Implement using your Analytics library (like Mixpanel) Create dashboards to compare
