# crashpad_database_util(1) ## Name crashpad_database_util—Operate on Crashpad crash report databases ## Synopsis **crashpad_database_util** [_OPTION…_] ## Description Operates on Crashpad crash report databases. The database’s settings can be queried and modified, and information about crash reports stored in the database can be displayed. When this program is requested to both show and set information in a single invocation, all “show” operations will be completed prior to beginning any “set” operation. Programs that use the Crashpad client library directly will not normally use this tool, but may use the database through the programmatic interfaces in the client library. This tool exists to allow developers to manipulate a Crashpad database. ## Options * **--create** Creates the database identified by **--database** if it does not exist, provided that the parent directory of _PATH_ exists. * **-d**, **--database**=_PATH_ Use _PATH_ as the path to the Crashpad crash report database. This option is required. The database must already exist unless **--create** is also specified. * **--show-client-id** Show the client ID stored in the database’s settings. The client ID is formatted as a UUID. The client ID is set when the database is created. [crashpad_handler(8)](../handler/crashpad_handler.md) retrieves the client ID and stores it in crash reports as they are written. * **--show-uploads-enabled** Show the status of the uploads-enabled bit stored in the database’s settings. [crashpad_handler(8)](../handler/crashpad_handler.md) does not upload reports when this bit is false. This bit is false when a database is created, and is under an application’s control via the Crashpad client library interface. See also **--set-uploads-enabled**. * **--show-last-upload-attempt-time** Show the last-upload-attempt time stored in the database’s settings. This value is `0`, meaning “never,” when the database is created. [crashpad_handler(8)](../handler/crashpad_handler.md) consults this value before attempting an upload to implement its rate-limiting behavior. The database updates this value whenever an upload is attempted. See also **--set-last-upload-attempt-time**. * **--show-pending-reports** Show reports eligible for upload. * **--show-completed-reports** Show reports not eligible for upload. A report is moved from the “pending” state to the “completed” state by [crashpad_handler(8)](../handler/crashpad_handler.md). This may happen when a report is successfully uploaded, when a report is not uploaded because uploads are disabled, or when a report upload attempt fails and will not be retried. * **--show-all-report-info** With **--show-pending-reports** or **--show-completed-reports**, show all metadata for each report displayed. Without this option, only report IDs will be shown. * **--show-report**=_UUID_ Show a report from the database looked up by its identifier, _UUID_, which must be formatted in string representation per RFC 4122 §3. All metadata for each report found via a **--show-report** option will be shown. If _UUID_ is not found, the string `"not found"` will be printed. If this program is only requested to show a single report and it is not found, it will treat this as a failure for the purposes of determining its exit status. This option may appear multiple times. * **--set-report-uploads-enabled**=_BOOL_ Enable or disable report upload in the database’s settings. _BOOL_ is a string representation of a boolean value, such as `"0"` or `"true"`. See also **--show-uploads-enabled**. * **--set-last-upload-attempt-time**=_TIME_ Set the last-upload-attempt time in the database’s settings. _TIME_ is a string representation of a time, which may be in _yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss_ format, a numeric `time_t` value, or the special strings `"never"` or `"now"`. See also **--show-last-upload-attempt-time**. * **--new-report**=_PATH_ Submit a new report located at _PATH_ to the database. If _PATH_ is `"-"`, the new report will be read from standard input. The new report will be in the “pending” state. The UUID assigned to the new report will be printed. This option may appear multiple times. * **--utc** When showing times, do so in UTC as opposed to the local time zone. When setting times, interpret ambiguous time strings in UTC as opposed to the local time zone. * **--help** Display help and exit. * **--version** Output version information and exit. ## Examples Shows all crash reports in a crash report database that are in the “completed” state. ``` $ crashpad_database_util --database /tmp/crashpad_database \ --show-completed-reports 23f9512b-63e1-4ead-9dcd-e2e21fbccc68 4bfca440-039f-4bc6-bbd4-6933cef5efd4 56caeff8-b61a-43b2-832d-9e796e6e4a50 ``` Disables report upload in a crash report database’s settings, and then verifies that the change was made. ``` $ crashpad_database_util --database /tmp/crashpad_database \ --set-uploads-enabled false $ crashpad_database_util --database /tmp/crashpad_database \ --show-uploads-enabled false ``` ## Exit Status * **0** Success. * **1** Failure, with a message printed to the standard error stream. ## See Also [crashpad_handler(8)](../handler/crashpad_handler.md) ## Resources Crashpad home page: https://crashpad.chromium.org/.
