ng-rollbar

Rollbar integration for AngularJS

This library automatically loads rollbar.js in version v1.7.0

You can use version 0.4.0 for rollbar.js in version 1.5.0 You can use version 0.3.1 for rollbar.js in version 1.4.4

Installation

You can use bower to install this frontend dependency: bower install ng-rollbar --save

Or you can just clone this repo: git clone https://github.com/tandibar/ng-rollbar.git

Usage

Load

Add the library into your application:

<script type="text/javascript" src="bower_components/ng-rollbar/ng-rollbar.min.js"></script>

Add the module as dependency to your angular app:

angular.module('myApp', ['tandibar/ng-rollbar', ...])

Initialize

Now initialize the rollbar in your application's config:

myApp.config(function(RollbarProvider) {
  RollbarProvider.init({
    accessToken: "<YOUR-APPLICATION-TOKEN>",
    captureUncaught: true,
    payload: {
      environment: '<specify-your-env>'
    }
  });
});

What you pass in via this init is exactly what you would do via the _rollbarConfig variable as described in the Rollbar Docs. This call to init will trigger the inclusion of the Rollbar snippet in your application. So if you never trigger the init call, Rollbar will never track anything.

Now every exception will be tracked by Rollbar.

Do not load

If you are developing Apps which sometimes get deployed in an environment without internet access (yes, theses places still exist) than you might want to disable the whole loading process of rollbar:

myApp.config(function(RollbarProvider) {
  RollbarProvider.deinit();
});

Now whenever you call a Rollbar function you will just get a log message and no script will be loaded.

Custom

If you need to manually trigger calls to Rollbar you can inject Rollbar where needed

myApp.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope, Rollbar) {
  $scope.onSomeEvent = function() {
    Rollbar.error('this is an error with special handling');
  };
});

You can enable/disable Rollbar via:

Rollbar.disable();
// ... things that should not be tracked by Rollbar ...
Rollbar.enable();

and you can turn on verbosity:

Rollbar.verbose(); // will log infos to console

Other exposed api calls (see Rollbar Docs for further usage infos)

// Rollbar severities
Rollbar.critical("some critical error");
Rollbar.error("some error");
Rollbar.warning("some warning");
Rollbar.info("some info");
Rollbar.debug("some debug message");

// Rollbar config
Rollbar.configure(<new-config>);

// Rollbar scope
Rollbar.scope();

And if anything is missing you can access the original Rollbar object via

Rollbar.Rollbar // access original Rollbar instance

How it works

The library decorates angulars $exceptionHandler with a call to Rollbar.error with the catched exception and the cause.
