New features

The crash collection and reporting mechanism has been redone from scratch, this now allows us to:
- Collect and report all types of crashes together with full stack trace information.
- Provide useful error descriptions on all use cases that trigger crash reporting.
- Produce Swift diagnostics for all types of crashes.
- Format full crash reports with extra diagnostic information.
Initialization has been simplified:
- Crash collection is now fully automatic.
- There's no need to investigate and select crash reporting libraries in order to make an informed decision, this is all now automatic and works much better than before.
The Swift Demo has been greatly expanded and enhanced:
- Demo: Expanded Swift Demo with more types of crashes.
- Demo: Prevent optimizer from erasing crashing funcs that result in noops.
- Demo: Allow users to change access token from the Demo UI.
A new logging option in the configuration allows users to choose whether they want to drop (default) rate limited API requests, or defer sending them until the next window of time.
Cleaned up extremely noisy internal logging.

Bugs fixed

Fixed multiple issues while handling rate limited API requests.
Fixed an important bug where the library would drop non-200 API responses thus treating all failing requests as retry-immediately.
Fixed logging not being suppressed, and enabled suppression by default.
Removed faulty Out of Memory detection that was triggering substantial false positives.

Other

Remove RollbarPLCrashReporter library.
Never symbolicate main executable frames.
Don't send mach diagnostics as title, let the server figure it out.
Add Rollbar branding to the Readme.
Minimum Swift version is now 5.0 and minimum deployment is 14.0.
Cleaned up podspecs, added publishing script.
Remove old, non-working examples and low quality demos.

Rollbar Apple MonoRepo

Proactively discover, predict, and resolve errors in real-time with Rollbar’s error monitoring platform. Start tracking errors today!

Objective-C & Swift SDK for remote crash, exception, error reporting, and logging with Rollbar.

It works on all Apple *OS platforms (macOS, iOS, tvOS, watchOS, etc).

NOTE: This SDK is essentially a reincarnation of our Rollbar-iOS SDK that will be available for awhile in its current v1 version and will only maintained with fixes to bug or security issues if any. All the active development will be done within this SDK repository.

Key benefits of using Rollbar for Apple software platforms are:

Platforms: Rollbar supports all Apple OS platforms such as IOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, etc.
Automatic error grouping: Rollbar aggregates Occurrences caused by the same error into Items that represent application issues. Learn more about reducing log noise.
Advanced search: Filter items by many different properties. Learn more about search.
Customizable notifications: Rollbar supports several messaging and incident management tools where your team can get notified about errors and important events by real-time alerts. Learn more about Rollbar notifications.
