.NET Standard

Overview

BugSplatDotNetStandard lets you capture and track exceptions on all .NET Standard 2.0 platforms. This includes:

• .NET 5+

• .NET Framework

• Maui

• Mono

• Unity

🏗 Installation

Install the BugSplatDotNetStandard NuGet package.

Install-Package BugSplatDotNetStandard

⚙️ Configuration

After you've installed the NuGet package, add a using statement for the BugSplatDotNetStandard namespace.

using BugSplatDotNetStandard;

Create a new instance of BugSplat, providing it with your database, application, and version. It's best to do this at the entry point of your application. Several defaults can be provided to BugSplat. You can provide default values for various fields, including description, email, key, notes, user, file attachments, and attributes.

var bugsplat = new BugSplat(database, application, version);
bugsplat.Attachments.Add(new FileInfo("/path/to/attachment.txt"));
bugsplat.Description = "the default description";
bugsplat.Email = "[email protected]";
bugsplat.Key = "the key!";
bugsplat.Notes = "the notes!";
bugsplat.User = "Fred";
bugsplat.Attributes.Add("key", "value");

The Post method can be used to send Exception objects to BugSplat.

try
{
    throw new Exception("BugSplat rocks!");
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
    await bugsplat.Post(exception);
}

Additionally, Post can be used to upload minidumps to BugSplat.

await bugsplat.Post(new FileInfo("/path/to/minidump.dmp"));

The default values for description, email, key, and user can be overridden in the call to Post. Additional attachments can also be specified in the call to the Post method. If BugSplat can't read an attachment (e.g., the file is in use), it will be skipped. Please note that the total size of the Post body and all attachments is limited to 100MB by default.

var options = new ExceptionPostOptions()
{
    Description = "BugSplat rocks!",
    Email = "[email protected]",
    User = "Fred",
    Key = "the key!"
};
options.Attachments.Add(new FileInfo("/path/to/attachment2.txt"));

await bugsplat.Post(ex, options);
