Flutter dependencies

Replace this line with the contents of your `flutter pub deps -- --style=compact`.

Additional context and comments

If I use an older firebase-action, e.g. v13.10.2, it succeeds. Also, if I upload it from my Mac with the new CLI, it succeeds too.

I don't know what's causing the error. It might be a problem with firebase-action. Sorry, but I'll put it here first.

Hello, you are using an old version of Firebase Core (and potentially crashlytics but didn't fill out the Flutter Dependencies part). Please update to the latest version and report back.

@Lyokone Hi, I updated the library to the latest version and still the same problem occurs.

Hi, any updates? @Lyokone I also create an example that reproduces this issue using the firebase_crashlytics example in flutterfire. https://github.com/alpha2048/flutter_firebase_crashlytics_test_2 https://github.com/alpha2048/flutter_firebase_crashlytics_test_2/actions/runs/10438117026/job/28905066500

For me it works when I set the following path --split-debug-info=build/app/outputs/symbols. When I use the root of my project as path I get java.io.IOException: No native libraries found at <root/path>

[alpha2048]

I change split-debug-info path to it, but still getting the same issue. https://github.com/alpha2048/flutter_firebase_crashlytics_test_2/actions/runs/10452789994/job/28941942809 Is it small mistake? Does anyone else face a similar problem?

The firebase-tools used by w9jds/firebase-action are not compatible with Crashlytics. Installing and using firebase cli worked!

      - name: Install firebase CLI
        run: curl -sL https://firebase.tools | bash
      - name: export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS_JSON
        run: echo ${{ secrets.FIREBASE_CREDENTIAL_FILE_BASE64 }} > /tmp/google_application_credentials.json
      - name: Upload symbols to firebase crashlytics
        run: firebase crashlytics:symbols:upload --app=${{ secrets.FIREBASE_APP_ID }} build/app/outputs/symbols
        env:
          GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS: /tmp/google_application_credentials.json

@myohei Hi, I followed your suggestion and it was successful! Thank you for your support. https://github.com/alpha2048/flutter_firebase_crashlytics_test_2/actions/runs/10668122043/job/29567129017

I don't know why there is such a difference, but maybe it's not flutterfire problem, so I'm going to close this issue. I might discuss this further in firebase-actions.
