Firebase Crashlytics mapping file not uploaded in v3.0

[wezley98]

Describe the bug

Been seeing this for a while in v3.0 Snapshots, but just thought it was something to do with my build. Looked into it in more detail, and found the the uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease isn't ran when running the publishReleaseBundle task.

I'm not sure if this is an issue with AGP/Crashlytics plugin or that with the new Crashlytics plugin we now need to explicitly run the new mapping task.

Generating a bundle directly from Android Studio Build -> Generate Signed Bundle / APK correctly runs the uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease task as shown in the build logs below.

How To Reproduce

1. Setup Firebase Crashlytics https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/upgrade-sdk?platform=android
2. Upload Bundle using publishReleaseBundle task.
3. Force a crash in app and the crash reports are obfuscated

Versions

• Gradle Play Publisher: 3.0
• Gradle Wrapper: 6.6.1
• Android Gradle Plugin: Tested on 4.1-RC1 and 4.2-Alpha10
• Firebase Plugin: com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.2.1
• Firebase Crashlytics: com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics:17.2.1

Tasks executed

publishReleaseBundle

Expected behavior

Bundle is created and uploaded, Firebase mapping file is uploaded.

Additional context (if a crash, provide stack trace)

Example crash report for version above (836)

Also worth mentioning that the same Firebase versions worked correctly with AS v4.0.1 and gradle-play-publisher v2.8.0, and the mapping files were uploaded correctly.

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

[SUPERCILEX]

Ah, sorry for not replying. This plugin has nothing to do with crashlytics, so you'd have to set up the wiring yourself. That said, I think this it's a decent feature request that wouldn't be too hard to implement.

[b95505017]

Sorry, but why using bundleRelease works but publishReleaseBundle? Which means v3 broke original release flow. Does it means that we have to call uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease manually in v3?

[SUPERCILEX]

We never did anything with crashlytics. I'm guessing you have something manual configured in your build files using the old task names.

[b95505017]

@SUPERCILEX I didn't do anything special and the difference is clearly by executing ./gradlew --dry-run bundleRelease v.s. ./gradlew --dry-run publishReleaseBundle to any sample. The later one doesn't execute uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease.

[SUPERCILEX]

Maybe the crashlytics plugin sets that up for you? We're using new APIs which means that task doesn't run AFAIK.

[chrisbanes]

I've also hit this. I'm not 100% sure, but I think the Crashlytics plugin is hooking up their uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease task to depend explicitly on bundleRelease. Since bundleRelease is no longer run by publishReleaseBundle, the mapping task isn't being run, so it's not being uploaded.

Easy workaround for now, just call both when publishing: ./gradlew bundleRelease publishRelease

You could also probably hook it this up automatically in Gradle, but that feels overkill.

[b95505017]

Currently my workaround is gradlew publishReleaseBundle uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease

[ghost]

I get an issue with the process uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease not completing at all. I just use the normal assembleRelease command (not even publishing it).

android tools plugin version: 3.5.3
kotlin version: 1.4.10
gradle-wrapper: 6.6.1

crashlytics plugin: com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.1.0

could the version of crashlytics be a reason why this is happening?

[vladimirov001]

Currently my workaround is gradlew publishReleaseBundle uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease

Thanks, it helps

[galonga]

Same issue here, firebase crashreports are incomplete. Will try to use the workaround for now.

[nicandris]

Just an addition to this

~/workspace/app [master]:$ ./gradlew --dry-run assembleRelease | grep rash
:app:injectCrashlyticsMappingFileIdRelease SKIPPED
:app:uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease SKIPPED

 ~/workspace/app [master]:$ ./gradlew --dry-run publishReleaseApk | grep rash
:app:injectCrashlyticsMappingFileIdRelease SKIPPED

 ~/workspace/app [master]:$ 

[nicandris]

Can someone confirm that this is fixed? I still dont see the upload task in /gradlew --dry-run publishRelease

[mochadwi]

Have you tried to update v3.2.0? @nicandris

[nicandris]

I didnt push a release yet, but i updated to 3.2.0 now and:

 $ ./gradlew --dry-run assembleRelease | grep rash
:app:injectCrashlyticsMappingFileIdRelease SKIPPED
:app:uploadCrashlyticsMappingFileRelease SKIPPED

  $ ./gradlew --dry-run publishRelease | grep rash
:app:injectCrashlyticsMappingFileIdRelease SKIPPED
  $ 

[mochadwi]

903 might be related and looks like we've to manually run the upload mappings task manually as suggested on the above comments

I've also update the v3.2.0 and also use manual task for now

[SUPERCILEX]

Does the same thing happen if you run publishApk directly?
