Logging

SDK logs are disabled by default. You can enable logs and set a log level when initializing ChatClient.

You can set logs at the following levels:

ChatLogLevel.ALL to see all log entries.
ChatLogLevel.DEBUG to see debug, warning, and error entries.
ChatLogLevel.WARN to see warning and error entries.
ChatLogLevel.ERROR to see error entries.
ChatLogLevel.NOTHING to not show any logs.

val client = ChatClient.Builder("apiKey", context)
    .logLevel(ChatLogLevel.ALL)
    .build()

ChatClient client = new ChatClient.Builder("apiKey", context)
        .logLevel(ChatLogLevel.ALL)
        .build();

You should only enable logging in development builds.

Intercepting Logs

To intercept logs from the SDK, you can also pass in your own ChatLoggerHandler:

val client = ChatClient.Builder("apiKey", context)
    .logLevel(ChatLogLevel.ALL)
    .loggerHandler(object : ChatLoggerHandler {
        override fun logT(throwable: Throwable) {
            // custom logging
        }

        override fun logT(tag: Any, throwable: Throwable) {
            // custom logging
        }

        override fun logI(tag: Any, message: String) {
            // custom logging
        }

        override fun logD(tag: Any, message: String) {
            // custom logging
        }

        override fun logW(tag: Any, message: String) {
            // custom logging
        }

        override fun logE(tag: Any, message: String) {
            // custom logging
        }

        override fun logE(tag: Any, message: String, throwable: Throwable) {
            // custom logging
        }
    })
    .build()

ChatClient client = new ChatClient.Builder("apiKey", context)
        .logLevel(ChatLogLevel.ALL)
        .loggerHandler(new ChatLoggerHandler() {
            @Override
            public void logV(@NonNull Object tag, @NonNull String message) {
                // custom logging
            }

            @Override
            public void logT(@NonNull Throwable throwable) {
                // custom logging
            }

            @Override
            public void logT(@NonNull Object tag, @NonNull Throwable throwable) {
                // custom logging
            }

            @Override
            public void logI(@NonNull Object tag, @NonNull String message) {
                // custom logging
            }

            @Override
            public void logD(@NonNull Object tag, @NonNull String message) {
                // custom logging
            }

            @Override
            public void logW(@NonNull Object tag, @NonNull String message) {
                // custom logging
            }

            @Override
            public void logE(@NonNull Object tag, @NonNull String message) {
                // custom logging
            }

            @Override
            public void logE(@NonNull Object tag, @NonNull String message, @NonNull Throwable throwable) {
                // custom logging
            }
        })
        .build();

Filtering Logs

All SDK log tags have Chat: as a prefix that you can use when filtering logs.

adb logcat com.your.package | grep "Chat:"

Here’s a set of useful tags for debugging network communication:

Chat:Http to see HTTP requests made from the ChatClient and the responses returned by Stream.
Chat:Events to see a list of events that the ChatClient emits.
Chat:Socket to see socket related events.
