Notes on auto crashlytics and cordova integration

README.md

After adding crashlytics code (crashlytics.sh) & Patching the xcodeproject file (crashlytics.rb)

• It will work in xcode but not in cordova anymore.

• This is because xcoder writes the .xcodeproj file in a format that node-xcode doesn't understand.

• you need to 'beautify/sanitize' the file again.

  • brew install xcproj
  • and run xcproj -P <path to your xcodeproj file> touch

• now you are ready to go in cordova

NOTE:

• your app will not show up in crashlytics unless you first RUN it (building is not enough)
• sometimes I found that I need to cordova build the project twice for the run script to kick in.
