See the Official Sentry Next.js SDK Docs to get started.
Currently, the minimum supported version of Next.js is 13.2.0.
To get started installing the SDK, use the Sentry Next.js Wizard by running the following command in your terminal or read the Getting Started Docs:
npx @sentry/wizard@latest -i nextjs
The wizard will prompt you to log in to Sentry. After the wizard setup is completed, the SDK will automatically capture unhandled errors, and monitor performance.
To set context information or to send manual events, you can use @sentry/nextjs as follows:
import * as Sentry from '@sentry/nextjs';
// Set user information, as well as tags and further extras
Sentry.setTag('user_mode', 'admin');
Sentry.setUser({ id: '4711' });
Sentry.setContext('application_area', { location: 'checkout' });
// Add a breadcrumb for future events
Sentry.addBreadcrumb({
message: '"Add to cart" clicked',
// ...
});
// Capture exceptions or messages
Sentry.captureException(new Error('Oh no.'));
Sentry.captureMessage('Hello, world!');
Bugsnag provides error monitoring for JavaScript applications, including Next.js. It offers similar features to Sentry, such as automatic error detection, custom error reporting, and release tracking. However, Bugsnag's interface and integrations may differ from Sentry's.
Raygun offers real-time error tracking and crash reporting for JavaScript applications. It includes features like user tracking, performance monitoring, and deployment tracking. Raygun's focus on user-centric metrics and detailed diagnostics provides a different perspective compared to Sentry.
LogRocket is a frontend application monitoring solution that combines session replay, performance monitoring, and error tracking. Unlike Sentry, which focuses on error and performance data, LogRocket provides insights into user interactions and experiences by recording user sessions.
