Sentry transport + formatter for Bristol

Bristol transport + formatter to send events and errors to Sentry.

Installation

You will need to install this package, as well as raven, which is the Sentry node.js client.

npm install --save bristol-sentry raven bristol

Getting started

const bristol = require('bristol');
const raven = require('raven');
const bristolSentry = require('bristol-sentry');

const target = bristolSentry({ client: new raven.Client('<your sentry dsn>') });

// Add as a target with the included formatter.
bristol.addTarget(target).withFormatter(bristolSentry.formatter);

// Try it out
bristol.debug('here come dat boi');
bristol.info('watch him rollin watch him go');
bristol.warn('he be rollin', { rollinWhere: 'down the street' });
bristol.error(new Error('o shit waddup'));

IMPORTANT! Sentry differentiates between errors and messages. An attempt to log an Error object will trigger a captureException, whereas anything else triggers a captureMessage. Since captureException does not store any message other than the one from the error, bristol-sentry will prepend the message (if any) to the extra array.

Contributing

You will need a Sentry DSN to run the tests! Sign up for an account at Sentry.

You can either add it to your own environment (SENTRY_DSN), or you can create an env.yaml in the repository root, and add the following:

test:
  SENTRY_DSN: <your dsn>

Usefull npm run scripts:

• npm run test: Runs tests once
• npm run test-watch: Runs tests in watch-mode
• npm run lint: Lints the code once
• npm run lint-watch: Lints the code in watch-mode
• npm run cover: Runs code coverage using istanbul
• npm run coveralls: Used by coveralls
