Consuming the Twilio Programmable Chat SDK with debug symbols
Raw
README.md

For purposes of using fabric.io crashlytics or some other debugging needs, you might need to use version of Chat SDK with debug symbols.

Switching to it is easy:

Where you previously had a line implementation 'com.twilio:chat-android:4.0.2' similar to here you should just replace chat-android with chat-android-with-symbols, the full line would look like:

implementation 'com.twilio:chat-android-with-symbols:4.0.2'

To enable fabric.io SDK crashlytics please follow their documentation.

IMPORTANT

Please double check that your build system properly strips the debug information from .so files before assembling the final apk, otherwise it may grow very large. The default with-symbols build will consume several hundred megabytes per library (totaling about 1Gb for all libraries) and you do not want to publish that. Making library stripping work is essential.

⚠️ ☣️ ⚠️ The standard android build system does perform stripping ONLY when Android NDK is installed and is available to gradle/maven/Android Studio - make absolutely sure you have NDK installed and configured. ☣️ ⚠️ ☣️
