There is no way to private SDKs to add packages into the SDK info

[brustolin]

Description

Private SDKs need to inform packages into the SDK information.

See getsentry/sentry-dart#1056

integrations and packages are missing.
The use case is that iOS events (native) don't contain the other packages.
Hybrid events (JS, Dart) contain the other packages.

We should expose a public API to set the packages to PrivateSentrySDKOnly similar to the following for setting the packages

sentry-cocoa/Sources/Sentry/Public/PrivateSentrySDKOnly.h

Lines 46 to 51 in 3861500

	+ (void)setSdkName:(NSString *)sdkName andVersionString:(NSString *)versionString;
	/**
	* Override SDK information.
	*/
	+ (void)setSdkName:(NSString *)sdkName;

We then need to store the packages somewhere, maybe in SentryMeta.

We add the SDKInfo to events here

sentry-cocoa/Sources/Sentry/SentryClient.m

Lines 655 to 659 in 3861500

	event.sdk = @{
	@"name" : SentryMeta.sdkName,
	@"version" : SentryMeta.versionString,
	@"integrations" : integrations
	};

and to envelopes here

sentry-cocoa/Sources/Sentry/Public/SentryEnvelope.h

Lines 44 to 46 in 3861500

	- (instancetype)initWithId:(nullable SentryId *)eventId
	sdkInfo:(nullable SentrySdkInfo *)sdkInfo
	traceContext:(nullable SentryTraceContext *)traceContext NS_DESIGNATED_INITIALIZER;

and here

sentry-cocoa/Sources/Sentry/SentrySerialization.m

Lines 44 to 47 in 3861500

	SentrySdkInfo *sdkInfo = envelope.header.sdkInfo;
	if (nil != sdkInfo) {
	[serializedData addEntriesFromDictionary:[sdkInfo serialize]];
	}

This issue has gone three weeks without activity. In another week, I will close it.

But! If you comment or otherwise update it, I will reset the clock, and if you label it Status: Backlog or Status: In Progress, I will leave it alone ... forever!
