Hello,

I have integrated JIRA mobile connect in my iphone app (iOS) but I would like to customize the crash report that it submits to JIRA. could not find any proper documentation about Jira Mobile Connect.

Any help will be appriciated.

Hi Anand,

Customization for JMC can be achieved by implementing any of the methods on the JMCCustomDataSource protocol.

There is an example of this in the AngryNerds Sample App. See these methods: https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/jiraconnect-ios/src/bc5e9a7efeb5/samples/AngryNerds/AngryNerds2/Classes/AngryNerdsViewController.m#cl-53

You can currently configure the following:

• customFields (a map of fieldname --> field value)
• a custom attachment
• the issue type to set
• the components to set (a map of compontent name --> component value)

We will be rolling out more online documentation for these shortly. Thanks for raising this. Let us know if there are any other options you think would be useful.

Other general JMC options are also able to be set on the JMCOptions object that can get set when you configure JMC in your app delegate.

Cheers,

Nick

Is JMC available also on Android platform?

Hi Anand,

If you wish to add that string in the description of the Issue in JIRA, then append it to the description argument in the JMCCrashTransport - (void)send:(NSString *)subject description:(NSString *)description crashReport:(NSString *)crashReport:

method: https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/jiraconnect-ios/src/bc5e9a7efeb5/JIRAConnect/JMCClasses/Core/transport/JMCCrashTransport.m#cl-42

This is currently not a configuration option in JMC, however we could make it one in a future version. I have created http://connect.onjira.com/browse/CONNECT-104 for this.

For the time being, appending to the description, (or setting it to something else) should do the trick.

Hi Nick,

Thank you for your reply. I did see that example. I am trying to do something different.

I have 8 view controllers and I wish to catch exceptions globally not through each viewcontroller. And on the crash report I want to include the following feedbackstring.

NSString *feedbackstring = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"ExName:%@\r\nExReason:%@\r\nExUserInfo:%@\r\ncallStackSymbols:%@ \r\n callStackReturnAddresses:%@\r\nVersion %@",exception.name, exception.reason, exception.userInfo, [NSThread callStackSymbols], [exception callStackReturnAddresses], [[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:@"CFBundleVersion"]];

How can I do it using JMC?

Thanks in advance.
