Upload dSYMS to Firebase via Fastlane - firebase

Question

I am struggling to upload dSYM files to Firebase via Fastlane. I have a lane that looks like the following:
desc "Fetch and upload dSYM files to Firebase Crashlytics"
lane :refresh_dsyms_firebase do |options|
download_dsyms(version: options[:version])
upload_symbols_to_crashlytics(gsp_path: "./App/GoogleService-Info.plist")
clean_build_artifacts
end
I confirmed that that is the correct path to the plist file, but when I try to run the lane at first I see the following:
[17:22:47]: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8
[17:22:47]: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8
[17:22:47]: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8
and then one of these for every dSYM file found:
[17:22:48]: Uploading '70DBE65E-227E-3754-89F2-EEFA6B8EEC2F.dSYM'...
[17:22:48]: Shell command exited with exit status instead of 0.
I am trying to determine exactly what I am missing from this process. Does anyone have ideas? I am fairly new to Fastlane, so definitely assume I could be missing something basic. (Although, that empty exit status is a bit weird).
fastlane 2.107.0

Answer 1

This may not be an option for most, but I just ended up fixing this by starting over. It may not be entirely obvious if you came over from Fabric, but I figured I would just rip off the band aid. My original setup was using the Fabric(Answers)/Firebase Crashlytics which is the Fabric->Firebase migration path, although subtle, the configuration between the two are slightly different and cause issues with upload_symbols_to_crashlytics
Remove support for Fabric answers, or replace with https://firebase.google.com/docs/analytics/ios/start
Remove the Fabric declaration in Info.plist
Modify your existing run script in BuildPhases: replace your existing runscript with "${PODS_ROOT}/Fabric/run" and add $(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)/$(INFOPLIST_PATH) to input files
In you AppDelegate remove Fabric.with([Crashlytics.self]) and you can also kill the import Fabric as this is now covered by Firebase
Unlink fabric, re-onboard Firebase crashlytics, and select new integration.
desc "Upload any dsyms in the current directory to crashlytics"
lane :upload_dsyms do |options|
download_dsyms(version: version_number, build_number: build_number)
upload_symbols_to_crashlytics(gsp_path: "./App/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist")
clean_build_artifacts
end

Answer 2

anyone interested in this can follow the thread here: https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/issues/13096
TL;DR: When you call
upload_symbols_to_crashlytics(gsp_path: "./App/GoogleService-Info.plist")
It will call a binary from the installed Fabric pod called upload_symbols and will look something like this:
./Pods/Fabric/upload-symbols -a db4d085462b3cd8e3ac3b50f118e273f077497b0 -gsp ./App/GoogleService-Info.plist -p ios /private/var/folders/x1/x6nqt4997t38zr9x7zwz72kh0000gn/T/d30181115-8238-1fr38bo/D4CE43B9-9350-3FEE-9E71-9E31T39080CD.dSYM
You'll notice that it calls it using both the Fabric API key and the GoogleService-Info.plist path. I do not know why but this will cause it not to upload. You'll have to temporarily remove the fabric configuration information from your Info.plist file before running the fastlane lane. (remember to re-add the fabric configuration).

First, you need to use upload_symbols_to_crashlytics but before to use it you will need to download your dsyms from App Store Connect and to do that you should use download_dsyms with some parameters version and build_number and the Fastlane will ask you about your app_identifier so I advise you to use it to not interrupt the build until getting your answer.
desc "Upload any dsyms in the current directory to Crashlytics of firebase"
lane :upload_dsyms do |options|
version_number = get_version_number(target: "your_app_target")
build_number = get_build_number
download_dsyms(
app_identifier: "your_app_identifier",
version: version_number,
build_number: build_number
)
upload_symbols_to_crashlytics(gsp_path: "./your_app_name or your_app_target/another_directroy/GoogleService-Info.plist")
clean_build_artifacts
end
my app was
desc "Upload any dsyms in the current directory to Crashlytics of firebase"
lane :upload_dsyms do |options|
version_number = get_version_number(target: "Movies")
build_number = get_build_number
download_dsyms(
app_identifier: "com.vngrs.Movies.demo",
version: version_number,
build_number: build_number
)
upload_symbols_to_crashlytics(gsp_path: "./Movies/Resources/GoogleService-Info.plist")
clean_build_artifacts
end

Answer 5

This worked for me
desc "Downlaod and Uplaod dSYMS to Firebase"
lane :uplaod_dsyms do
download_dsyms # This will download all version
upload_symbols_to_crashlytics(
gsp_path: "Path to your google plist",
binary_path: "./Pods/FirebaseCrashlytics/upload-symbols") # this goes to cocoapods of FirebaseCrashlytics
clean_build_artifacts # Delete the local dSYM files
end

Answer 6

This works for me.
1. Create a new lane on Fastfile
# Fastfile
default_platform(:ios)
# Constants
XCODE_PROJECT = "PROJECT.xcodeproj"
XCODE_WORKSPACE = "PROJECT.xcworkspace"
PRODUCTION_GSP_PATH = "./APP_ROOT/GoogleService-Info.plist"
platform :ios do
desc "Push a production build to TestFlight"
lane :upload_crashlytics_prod do
download_dsyms(
version: get_version_number(xcodeproj: XCODE_PROJECT),
build_number: get_build_number(xcodeproj: XCODE_PROJECT)
)
upload_symbols_to_crashlytics(gsp_path: PRODUCTION_GSP_PATH)
end
end
2. Now call from your shell script or terminal
fastlane upload_crashlytics_prod
