Use dynamic version and release for sentry properties in pubsepc.yaml

[nrajput05]

I have 3 questions regarding the sentry properties and debug symbols:

• 1
  I am using sentry properties in my pubsepc.yaml. In there, we have to specify release and dist keys. My understanding is that the release is the version of the app and the dist is the build number as in 2.0.0(3) is the full version where 2.0.0 is the release and 3 is the dist. Is this understanding correct?

• 2
  How can I set the release and dist keys with dynamic versions? Is it possible to refer the pubsepc.yaml file's "version: 2.0.0+3" key?

• 3
  Once the flutter web app is built and uploaded to server, all the crashes are reported with minified stack trace. I was hoping once I build the app and execute flutter packages pub run sentry_dart_plugin with correct version in sentry properties, the stack trace won't be minified since I have uploaded the debug symbols.

This is how my sentry properties file looks like in pubsepc.yaml file:

sentry:
    upload_debug_symbols: true # For mobile apps
    upload_source_maps: true # For better readability of errors on the web
    upload_sources: false # Keeping it false as of now to avoid source code in the errors
    project: 'xxxxxx'
    org: 'xxxxxx'
    auth_token: 'xxxxxx'
    #    url: https://sentry.io/ 
    wait_for_processing: true # Wait for server side processing to surely know that debug symbols are uploaded
    log_level: error # Possible values are trace, debug, info, warn, and error.
    release: 2.0.0  # This refers to the version defined above
    dist: 2.0.0+3  # Includes the build number
    #    web_build_path: build/web/ # Might not be needed.
    commits: auto # Linking Git commits with errors
    ignore_missing: true

Yes 3 would be the build number although it is not required to have it

I'm not sure what you mean, do you mean how to dynamically update the release version?

all the crashes are reported with minified stack trace

the dist should only be the build number

release: 2.0.0 
dist: 3 

and you have to be sure that it matches the config in your Flutter app

maybe you can also post your SentryFlutter.init config

I meant if I don't set these values then whatever is written on top of my pubspec.yaml file, that version and build number will be picked. I tried and yes it worked like that. No need to define separately.

Also the stack trace for web only worked if I use upload_sources: true which uploads my source code to sentry.
