Privacy and console logs (7.x Beta)

7.x Beta

This page documents the 7.x beta line. For the stable release, see the 6.x log privacy page.

Disabling log collection

Log collection can be turned off with the CaptureLogs option — see configuration.

Sanitizing logs

7.x uses a single generic filter interface, EventFilter<T>, for both log and network events. Return the (possibly mutated) event to keep it; return null to drop it entirely. There is no second-argument listener callback — the filter method is synchronous.

The event type is LogEvent (package com.bugsee.library.contracts), which replaces the 6.x BugseeLog type.

Java

Bugsee.setLogEventFilter(log -> {
    String message = log.getMessage();
    if (message != null) {
        // Strip tokens, redact PII, etc.
        log.setMessage(message.replaceAll("token=\\S+", "token=[REDACTED]"));
    }

    // Return the mutated event to keep it…
    return log;

    // …or return null to drop it entirely:
    // return null;
});

Kotlin

Bugsee.setLogEventFilter { log ->
    log.message?.let { message ->
        log.message = message.replace(Regex("token=\\S+"), "token=[REDACTED]")
    }

    // Return the mutated event to keep it…
    log

    // …or return null to drop it entirely:
    // null
}

setLogFilter alias

Bugsee.setLogFilter(EventFilter<LogEvent>) is kept as an alias for setLogEventFilter(...) to smooth 6.x call-site migration. Both resolve to the same registration.

See migration section 6 for a side-by-side of the old two-arg callback vs. the new single-method filter shape.
