# bugreport
[](https://github.com/sharkdp/bugreport/actions) [](https://crates.io/crates/bugreport)
[](https://docs.rs/bugreport)
`bugreport` is a Rust library that helps application developers to automatically collect
information about the system and the environment that users can send along with a bug
report (similar to `git bugreport` or `ffmpeg … -report`).
**Note**: This library is in an early stage and the API may change in the future.
## Example
The following code
```rust
use bugreport::{bugreport, collector::*, format::Markdown};
fn main() {
bugreport!()
.info(SoftwareVersion::default())
.info(OperatingSystem::default())
.info(CommandLine::default())
.info(EnvironmentVariables::list(&["SHELL", "EDITOR"]))
.info(CommandOutput::new("Python version", "python", &["-V"]))
.info(CompileTimeInformation::default())
.print::<Markdown>();
}
```
generates bug report information that [looks like this](example-report.md).
## Collectors
- [x] Crate information (name, version, git hash)
- [x] Operating system (type, name, version)
- [x] Command line (including all arguments)
- [x] Environment variables (e.g. `SHELL`, `PATH`, …)
- [x] File contents (e.g. config files)
- [x] Directory contents
- [x] Command output (e.g. `bash --version`)
- [x] Compile time information (profile, target, architecture, cpu features, etc.)
- [ ] Current working directory
- [ ] Date and time
- [x] User defined collectors
## Features
- [x] Markdown export
- [ ] Open report output in editor (instead of printing to stdout, see `git bugreport`)
- [ ] Ask user for permission to gather information?
- [ ] Automatic anonymization of information? (e.g.: remove `/home/username` from paths)
- [ ] JSON export (?)
## Use cases / prior art
- `ffmpeg`s `-report` option
- Interesting: "Setting the environment variable FFREPORT to any value has the same effect."
- see also: https://ffmpeg.org/bugreports.html
- `git bugreport`
- https://git-scm.com/docs/git-bugreport
- git version --build-options
- `grails bugreport`
