馃摐 Description

This adds an integration for PlatformDispatcher.onError which was introduced in the Flutter 3.1 beta.

The interesting thing about the addition of this error handler is that the runZonedGuarded integration isn't needed anymore. This needs some more testing, though.
Ideally, the runZonedGuarded integration shouldn't be applied anymore if the PlatformDispatcher.onError is available. The removal of runZonedGuarded also removes the ability to log print() statements. In Flutter that's not that bad, as Flutter uses debugPrint() which is still logged as breadcrumbs.
This could also replace the IsolateErrorIntegration (at least on Flutter), but that needs to be tested, too.

The removal of the runZonedGuarded integration leads to much less complicated manual initialization code, because Sentry can now be initialized anywhere in the application lifecycle. There's no need anymore for Sentry to be the first call the user does in his code.

This is especially important for the use case, where crash reporting should only be enabled after user consent.

Example event: https://sentry.io/organizations/sentry-sdks/issues/3229407573/events/c912a632f2b147099657544fa4f22c60/?project=5428562

The error handler was introduced in flutter/engine#32078

馃挕 Motivation and Context

Closes #833

馃挌 How did you test it?

New test + example application

Test scenarios

  • Passing error directly to the error handler
  • Remove the runZoneGuarded integration and throw and uncaught exception

馃摑 Checklist

  • I reviewed submitted code
  • I added tests to verify changes
  • I updated the docs if needed
  • All tests passing
  • No breaking changes

馃敭 Next steps

  • Release it.
  • Add functionality to remove the need for the runZoneGuarded integration if this error handler is available.

Not sure why the tests fail on the beta channel. The type errors which are shown are just wrong: https://github.com/flutter/engine/blob/28a5d3c05d61b25f82080260bae4b6c3b77d03b5/lib/ui/platform_dispatcher.dart#L64

Edit: Web has a different signature: https://github.com/flutter/engine/blob/28a5d3c05d61b25f82080260bae4b6c3b77d03b5/lib/web_ui/lib/platform_dispatcher.dart#L17

Edit 2: I guess the tests have to be disabled until flutter/engine#34428 hits the beta/stable channel or this should only be merged when the fixed error handler hits the beta/stable channel.

Edit 3: Fix has landed

Edit 4: Latest Flutter beta includes the fix, so this is ready

@ueman Right now the OnErrorIntegration is installed automatically.
We also have the IsolateErrorIntegration, RunZonedGuardedIntegration, FlutterErrorIntegration.
I'm wondering how all of these integrations play together, maybe not adding the OnErrorIntegration by default right now is the right way to do so? We could add code snippets on readme to actually remove such integrations on SDK init and add the OnErrorIntegration manually until this is GA? what do you think?

Sounds reasonable, since it's only available in the beta anyway.

The FlutterErrorIntegration and this one play nicely together. The IsolateIntegration probably too. Just the RunZoneGuardedIntegration will become obsolete.

That's however quite nice, because it enables us (speaking as a user) to be much more flexible in enabling and disabling Sentry. That's important for GDPR, for example.


The goal is to use this integration when available and the RunZoneGuardedIntegration on older Flutter versions.
