A library to make StackTraces involving RxJava2 more meaningful (they will always point to your code!).
If you use RxJava2, you know the pain of debugging exceptions generated somwhere across the stream, in another thread, in a nested stream, ... The StackTrace provided by RxJava2 will tell you almost nothing. Even more, if you are using systems like Crashlytics to collect reports for and Android app, most RxJava-related crashes will be reported as a single error instance (omg, no way to fix that).
This library was created from the need to debug such situations when they happen in Android apps; even more, I needed to have a clear and precise report in Crashlytics for each distinct exception.
-
If you handle exceptions generated in RxJava2 streams, you can query RxJava2Debug to obtain an extended StackTrace pointing to the exact line of code that created the issue.
-
If you let exceptions generated in RxJava2 streams crash your app, RxJava2Debug will automatically extend the default StackTrace.
-
If you let exceptions generated in RxJava2 streams crash your app and you configure RxJava2Debug with your package-names, RxJava2Debug will make sure you get unique reports for each issue (to Crashlytics, or whichever reporting system you use).
Using Maven Central :
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.akaita.java:rxjava2-debug:1.4.0'
}Using JCenter:
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.akaita.java:rxjava2-debug:1.4.0'
}RxJava2Debug 1.3.0+: RxJava 2.2.1+
RxJava2Debug 1.2.2: RxJava 2.1.0 to 2.2.0
Just enable RxJava2Debug as soon as possible. In Android, for example:
public class MyApplication extends Application {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Fabric.with(this, new Crashlytics());
// Enable RxJava assembly stack collection, to make RxJava crash reports clear and unique
// Make sure this is called AFTER setting up any Crash reporting mechanism as Crashlytics
RxJava2Debug.enableRxJava2AssemblyTracking(new String[]{"com.example.myapp", "com.example.mylibrary"});
}
}This will:
- Enhance stack traces of all RxJava2-related crashes making sure they contain a reference to the method that generated the first event in the Rx pipeline
- Make sure that Stack Traces contain a reference to your code (some class in
com.example.myapporcom.example.mylibrary) - Make sure that crash reports in Crashlytics are actually different for each pipeline (avoid bundling every RXJava error into one reports)
You will now also be able to obtain an enhanced Stack Trace even when you implement onError (really, you should implement it):
responseSubject
.subscribe(
responseObservable -> handleResponse(responseObservable),
throwable -> RxJava2Debug.getEnhancedStackTrace(throwable)
);| Without RxJava2Debug | With RxJava2Debug |
|---|---|

Start collecting information about RxJava's execution to provide a more meaningful StackTrace in case of crash
Beware: Any crash-reporting handler should be set up before calling this method
void enableRxJava2AssemblyTracking()Start collecting filtered information about RxJava's execution to provide a more meaningful StackTrace in case of crash
Beware: Any crash-reporting handler should be set up before calling this method
void enableRxJava2AssemblyTracking(@Nullable String[] basePackageNames)Disable the collection of more information about RxJava's execution
Information collected before calling this method will still be reported
void disableRxJava2AssemblyTracking()Obtain a copy of the original Throwable with an extended StackTrace
@Nullable Throwable getEnhancedStackTrace(Throwable originalException)Regardless of the thread a crash happens in, a nice StackTrace referring to the origin of the RxJava2 pipeline will be added to the causes of the crash.

This library is using a subset of classes from akarnokd's RxJava2Extensions.
RxJava2Extensions takes about 1mb and contains 5231 methods. RxJava2Debug takes about 38kb and contains 239 methods.
