Timber SQL Logger
Log to a sql database for debugging. View the logs in-app with the LogViewerActivity.
This library was created when I decided that having my phone attached to logcat for hours in hopes a heisenbug would appear in a service was too inefficient.
Works with API level 11+
Usage
Logging is done manually by wait of...
LogEntry entry = LogEntry.createLogEntry(Log.DEBUG, TAG, "Hit critical function");
LogEntryProvider.insertLogEntry(context, entry);...or you can plant a tree with Timber using SQLLoggingTree:
public class App extends Application {
// The default tag is used when no tag is provided.
private static final String DEFAULT_TAG = "TimberSqlSampleApp";
@Override
public void onCreate() {
LogEntryProvider.initialize(this);
Timber.plant(new SqlLoggingTree(this, DEFAULT_TAG));
}
}Setup
In your app's AndroidManifest, you will need to include two items:
<activity
android:name="io.explod.android.sqllog.ui.activity.LogViewerActivity"
android:exported="false"/>
<!-- Important: set your own authority name and provide that name in the metadata -->
<provider
android:name="io.explod.android.sqllog.data.LogEntryProvider"
android:authorities="your.authority.name"
android:exported="false"/>
<meta-data android:name="io.explod.sqllog.log.authority" android:value="your.authority.name"/>And finally, to view the logs, you start the activity:
private void goToLogViewer() {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, LogViewerActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
