React Bug Reporter Pro is a lightweight React component library designed to streamline bug reporting by enabling users to simultaneously record all HTTP requests, screen activity, and audio. This approach enhances the detail and accuracy of bug reports. The library offers a flexible and robust solution for monitoring and controlling HTTP interactions and screen recordings, and it includes comprehensive type definitions to enhance the development experience for consumers.
Note: Due to compatibility limitations, mobile browsers are not supported.
Install the package using npm:
npm install react-bug-reporter-pro-
HTTP and Video Recording: Simultaneously capture all background HTTP requests and record screen activity.
-
Intuitive Interface: A simple and interactive user interface makes bug capturing straightforward and user-friendly.
-
Fully Customizable: Designed with flexibility and reusability in mind, this library can easily adapt to any style. For highly customized implementations, all core logic is encapsulated in two hooks, making it easy to create your own components using them.
-
Customizable Translations: Due to its customizable nature, the library includes built-in support for translations, allowing you to tailor it to fit your language and specific context.
-
Comprehensive Documentation: Clear and detailed JSDoc comments and type definitions are provided throughout the API, ensuring a smooth development experience right out of the box.
With the built in wrapper
import { ReactBugReporterProWrapper } from 'react-bug-reporter-pro'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// ... any code here ...
return (
<Foo>
// ...any jsx you might have here
<ReactBugReporterProWrapper
description={{
value: yourDescriptionState,
onValueChange: yourDescriptionStateSetter,
}}
allowDownloadFiles={true}
audioEnabled={true}
/>
</Foo>
)
}The code above provides everything you need to get started with the library. It allows you to download the recorded video and the HTTP request log file after the recording.
If you wish to upload the files to a server, you'll need to implement a bit more logic, such as:
import { ReactBugReporterProWrapper } from 'react-bug-reporter-pro'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// ... any code here ...
return (
<Foo>
// ...any other JSX code you might have here
<ReactBugReporterProWrapper
description={{
value: yourDescriptionState,
onValueChange: yourDescriptionStateSetter,
}}
allowDownloadFiles={true}
audioEnabled={true}
uploadFiles={{
uploadVideoCallback: (videoEncoded) => {
return fetch('your-service-url', {
method: 'POST',
body: videoEncoded,
headers: {
Authorization:
'Bearer your-auth-token if required',
},
})
},
uploadRequestFileCallback: (httpLogFileEncoded) => {
return fetch('your-service-url', {
method: 'POST',
body: httpLogFileEncoded,
headers: {
Authorization:
'Bearer your-auth-token if required',
},
})
},
}}
onFileUploaded={async ({
requestsFileUploadResult,
videoUploadResult,
error,
}) => {
/*
* This callback receives the responses from the previous upload callbacks,
* allowing you to perform any required actions, such as sending a POST request
* to save the file URLs along with the description.
*/
if (error) {
/*
* If an error occurs during any of the upload callbacks, the 'error' property
* will be available here for you to handle it accordingly. It is possible for one
* of the two upload callbacks to succeed while the other fails. In such a case,
* 'requestsFileUploadResult' and 'videoUploadResult' will still be accessible,
* allowing you to determine which upload failed and handle the successful one as needed.
*/
}
try {
const data = {
description,
videoUrl: await videoUploadResult.json().url,
httpLogUrl:
await requestsFileUploadResult.json().url,
}
await fetch('my-server-url', {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify(data),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
Authorization:
'Bearer your-auth-token if required',
},
})
} catch (error) {
console.log({ error })
}
}}
/>
</Foo>
)
}Using the hooks
If you want to develop your custom UI and use either the HTTP logger, the screen recorder, or both, you can utilize the useHttpRecorder and/or useScreenRecorder hooks. These hooks encapsulate all the logic found in the built-in wrapper, allowing you to implement functionality in an isolated manner.
useHttpRecorder
This hook allows you to record all background HTTP requests.
Using it will likely look like this:
import { useHttpRecorder } from 'react-bug-reporter-pro'
const myComponent: React.FC = () => {
const {
downloadFile,
recording,
startRecording,
stopRecording,
uploadFile,
} = useHttpRecorder()
const onStartRecording = () => {
if (recording) return
startRecording()
}
const onStopRecording = () => {
stopRecorder('optional-file-name')
downloadFile()
}
const onUploadFile = () => {
try {
await uploadFile((httpLogFile) => {
/* Your upload logic goes here */
})
} catch (error) {
//...error handling
}
}
return //...any jsx here
}useScreenRecorder
This hook enables you to record the screen. Its API is quite similar to that of the HTTP logger hook.
Using it will likely look like this:
import { useScreenRecorder } from 'react-bug-reporter-pro'
const myComponent: React.FC = () => {
const {
recording,
localVideoUrl,
startRecording,
stopRecording,
uploadFile,
revokeUrl,
downloadFile,
} = useScreenRecorder()
const onStartRecording = () => {
if (recording) return;
startRecording()
}
const onStopRecording = () => {
stopRecorder('optional-file-name')
downloadFile()
}
const onUploadFile = () => {
try {
await uploadFile((videoFileEncoded) => {
/* Your upload logic goes here */
})
revokeUrl()
} catch (error) {
//...error handling
}
}
return <video src={localVideoUrl}></video>
