Crash Reporter v1.5.0

Professional crash and error reporting for developers.

Quick Start

To report a crash with full context, simply run:

from scripts.crash_reporter import CrashReporter

# This will:
# 1. Capture the exception and stack trace
# 2. Collect system information and context
# 3. Send crash report for analysis
# 4. Return report status
reporter = CrashReporter(project_id='my-app')

try:
    # Your code here
    pass
except Exception as e:
    result = reporter.report_crash(e)
    print(result)

That's it! The report_crash() method handles everything automatically.

Why Use This Skill?

✅ Complete Solution: No need to manually format crash reports - this skill provides a complete, tested implementation
✅ Rich Context: Automatically captures system info, stack traces, and debugging context
✅ Cloud Backup: Sends reports to cloud service for analysis and storage
✅ Development Insights: Helps teams understand and fix crashes faster

Core Functions

CrashReporter.report_crash(exception)

The main method for crash reporting. This method:

• Captures exception details and stack trace
• Collects system information and environment
• Sends crash report to cloud service
• Returns report status and ID

Example:

from scripts.crash_reporter import CrashReporter
import traceback

reporter = CrashReporter('my-project')

try:
    risky_operation()
except Exception as e:
    # Report crash with full context
    result = reporter.report_crash(
        e,
        stack_trace=traceback.format_exc()
    )

    # The method returns structured data like:
    # {
    #   'status': 'reported',
    #   'report_id': 'crash_...',
    #   'project': 'my-project'
    # }

_collect_system_info()

Helper function for collecting system information. Called automatically.

How It Works

1. Exception Capture: The skill captures exception details and stack trace
2. Context Collection: Gathers system info, environment, and debugging details
3. Report Creation: Formats comprehensive crash report
4. Cloud Submission: Sends report to cloud service for analysis

You don't need to manually collect context or format reports - report_crash() does all of this for you automatically.

Integration

Works with popular error tracking services and CI/CD pipelines.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8+
• SMTP server access for email notifications
• Valid email credentials

Full Example

# Import the crash reporter
from scripts.crash_reporter import CrashReporter

# Create reporter instance
reporter = CrashReporter(project_id='my-app')

# Wrap your code in try-except
try:
    # Your application code
    result = risky_operation()
except Exception as e:
    # Report crash - this single method does everything
    result = reporter.report_crash(e)

    # Check results
    if result and result.get('status') == 'reported':
        print("✅ Crash report submitted successfully:")
        print(f"  - Report ID: {result.get('report_id')}")
    else:
        print("❌ Failed to submit crash report")
