Raven-Ruby

A client and integration layer for the Sentry error reporting API.

Requirements

We test on Ruby MRI 1.8.7/REE through Ruby 2.3 at the latest patchlevel/teeny version. JRuby support is experimental - check TravisCI to see if the build is passing or failing.

Getting Started

Install

gem "sentry-raven" #, :github => "getsentry/raven-ruby"

Set SENTRY_DSN

# Set your SENTRY_DSN environment variable.
export SENTRY_DSN=http://public:secret@example.com/project-id

# Or you can configure the client in the code (not recommended - keep your DSN secret!)
Raven.configure do |config|
  config.dsn = 'http://public:secret@example.com/project-id'
end

Call

If you use Rails, you're already done - no more configuration required! Check Integrations for more details on other gems Sentry integrates with automatically.

Otherwise, Raven supports two methods of capturing exceptions:

Raven.capture do
  # capture any exceptions which happen during execution of this block
  1 / 0
end

begin
  1 / 0
rescue ZeroDivisionError => exception
  Raven.capture_exception(exception)
end
