Send errors and change logs to RM document. #45

Open sedennial opened 3 years ago

What if all (post authentication) error handling/exceptions got sent to a new document that gets uploaded to the RM ? That way rather than dumping errors to the console or log file to possibly never be seen they would show up in the users' RMs?

This could also work as a notification method for feature changes so then functionality changes like this could get implemented with a default of "don't execute unless opt-in" and details are in the RM 'Goosepaper Update' document. Would still require a global config though.

Interesting! One of my use-cases right now is to use Goosepaper to just generate a document, but not send it to a tablet. What would the analog be for that user? I definitely want to avoid logfiles cluttering up my own tablet but I could see other users benefitting from this! Definitely a long debug-cycle though (at least in my tests, the RM doesn't get the file all that quickly...)

LOVING these PRs and ideas, thank you @sedennial :)

So perhaps this could also be an option to go into the global prefs/config file? If we did that we could have multiple methods of logging as well. Log file, Syslog/Event Log, Upload logs to RM, etc.

Also I could see an option being 'Create a PDF/EPUB error log' and a separate check for uploading said debug/log document. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Monday, May 10th, 2021 at 7:22 PM, Jordan Matelsky @.***> wrote:
