Installation & Setup

1. Download the Airbrake Jar or build from source via GitHub

2. Copy the .jar file to your Android app's libs/ folder

3. Import the AirbrakeNotifier class in your app's main Activity:

   import com.loopj.android.airbrake.AirbrakeNotifier;

4. In your activity's onCreate function, register to begin capturing exceptions (You can find your project API KEY with your project's settings):

   AirbrakeNotifier.register(this, "<Your project API KEY>");

Configuration

The AirbrakeNotifier.register call requires a context and Airbrake API key to be passed in, and optionally a third argument specifying the environment. The environment defaults to production if not set.

To notify Airbrake of non-fatal exceptions, or exceptions you have explicitly caught in your app, you can call AirbrakeNotifier.notify. This call takes exactly one argument, a Throwable, and can be called from anywhere in your code. For example:

try {
    // Something dangerous
} catch(Exception e) {
    // We don't want this to crash our app, but we would like to be notified
    AirbrakeNotifier.notify(e);
}
