Issue: How do you configure/change the Raygun directory? It is visible to users of iOS document based apps.

I am switching from another crash reporting solution to Raygun within a Xamarin.iOS app. This app is a document based app, and uses the built-in iOS file browser UI. When Raygun is integrated with the app, the SDK creates a "RaygunIO" folder in the applications local document directory that is visible to users in the app, within the Files app, and within other apps that use the system file browser. Is it possible to configure the path so that the directory is located in a private location that is not visible to end users?

It appears to me that the only way would be to build a custom version of the SDK, and updating the RaygunFileManager class. (https://github.com/MindscapeHQ/raygun4net/blob/master/Mindscape.Raygun4Net.Xamarin.iOS.Unified/RaygunFileManager.cs)

Hi Jon,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. At a glance it looks like we'll need to make the root directory path a setting so that it can be overridden. I'll make a ticket to work on this in a future sprint, unfortunately I can't provide an ETA for this.

Regards,

Sam

Hi Jon,

Thank you for the offer. For this scenario we would expect an option in the settings to be available here: https://github.com/MindscapeHQ/raygun4net/blob/master/Mindscape.Raygun4Net.Xamarin.iOS/RaygunSettings.cs.

This optional directory would then be passed to the RaygunFileManager to override the default location. https://github.com/MindscapeHQ/raygun4net/blob/b7f4b111ae553addaa981b1628b2f4268ced5ab6/Mindscape.Raygun4Net.Xamarin.iOS.Unified/RaygunFileManager.cs#L33

Please let me know if you have any more questions.

Regards, Mitchell.

Hi Jon,

Thank you for the GitHub PR. I have created a ticket for the Crash Reporting team to review in their next sprint. This next sprint begins in two weeks time but depending on workload this may be picked up sooner. We will update both the GitHub PR and this forum thread once we have reviewed and released these changes.

Thank you again for taking the time to submit the PR.

Regards, Mitchell.
