The termux plugins should use this library instead of hardcoding "com.termux" values in their source code.
The library can be included as a dependency by plugins and third party apps by including the following line in the build.gradle where x.xxx is the version number, once its published.
`implementation 'com.termux:termux-shared:x.xxx'`
The `TermuxConstants` class has been updated to `v0.17.0`, `TermuxPreferenceConstants` to `v0.9.0` and `TermuxPropertyConstants` to `v0.6.0`. Check their Changelog sections for info on changes.
Some typos and redundant code has also been fixed.
Now whenever the Termux app crashes, the crash report (stacktrace, app and device info) will be logged to ~/crash_log.md file. When the user will reopen the app, a notification will be shown which when clicked will show the crash report content in the ReportActivity. The activity will have important links like email, reddit, github issues of termux app and packages at which the user can optionally report an issue if necessary after copying the crash report text. The ~/crash_log.md file will be moved to ~/crash_log-backup.md so that a notification is not shown again on next startup and can be viewed again via SAF, etc.
This will allow reports for bugs that are submitted to have complete and useful info, specially in markdown format, making lives of devs a tad bit easier. Also more bugs that are rare might be submitted since users will have the info to report with and know where to report at.
ToDo:
- The TermuxConstants.TERMUX_SUPPORT_EMAIL_URL needs to be updated with a valid support email once its set up. The TermuxUtils.getReportIssueMarkdownString() function currently also has "email" lines commented out which will need to be uncommented.
- Currently, crashes will only be handled for the main app thread, other threads will have to manually hooked into where necessary.
- PackageUtils has been added to get various package related info. This will be used to get info based on Context objects instead of using BuildConfig which wouldn't have been available across termux plugins.
- Support for getting Context objects of all termux plugin apps have been added to TermuxUtils.
- Support for showing more details for the app has been added for ReportActivity. This will also allow app info of Termux app to be generated when TermuxUtils.getAppInfoMarkdownString() is called by a termux plugin so that both are shown so that devs/users can more easily detect compatibility issues.
- ReportActivity has been fixed to also include report and device info instead of just the ExecutionCommand info when copying and sharing.
- Moved the generation of markdown for ReportInfo to its own class and added creationTimestamp field.
- Increased markdown headings size for some cases.
