raven-cfml

raven-cfml is a CFML client for Sentry.

Installation

Install source from GitHub

To install the source code:

$ git clone git://github.com/iGLOO-be/raven-cfml.git

And instantiate the object:

<cfset ravenConfig = structNew()>
<cfset ravenConfig.publicKey = "[your_public_key]">
<cfset ravenConfig.privateKey = "[your_private_key]">
<cfset ravenConfig.sentryUrl = "[http://sentry_url]">
<cfset ravenConfig.projectID = [numeric_project_id]>
<cfset ravenClient = createObject('component', '[path.to.raven].lib.client').init(argumentCollection=ravenConfig)>

Usage

Using Application.cfc

<cffunction name="OnError" access="public" returntype="void" output="false">
   <cfargument name="exception" type="any" required="true">
   <cfargument name="eventName" type="string" required="false" default="">

   <cfset ravenClient.captureException(exception)>

</cffunction>

Inside a CFML Page

<cftry>
   <!--- Code to execute --->

   <cfcatch>
      <!--- Capture a exception --->
      <cfset ravenClient.captureException(cfcatch)>

      <!--- Capture a message --->
      <cfset ravenClient.captureMessage("This is a message.")>
   </cfcatch>
</cftry>

Explore the client.cfc library for all available arguments.

Threading

It maybe helpful to wrap the capture calls inside cfthread to isolate the api call to sentry for performance.

<cftry>
   <!--- Code to execute --->

   <cfcatch>
      <cfthread action="run" name="ravenThread" exception="#cfcatch#" cgiVars="#CGI#" httpRequestData="#getHttpRequestData()#">
         <cfset ravenConfig = structNew()>
         <cfset ravenConfig.publicKey = "[your_public_key]">
         <cfset ravenConfig.privateKey = "[your_private_key]">
         <cfset ravenConfig.sentryUrl = "[http://sentry_url]">
         <cfset ravenConfig.projectID = [numeric_project_id]>
         <cfset ravenConfig.cgiVars = cgiVars>
         <cfset ravenConfig.httpRequestData = httpRequestData>
         <cfset ravenClient = createObject('component', '[path.to.raven].lib.client').init(argumentCollection=ravenConfig)>

         <cfset ravenClient.captureException(cfcatch)>
      </cfthread>
   </cfcatch>
</cftry>

Using the sentry-cfml plugin in Sentry

There is a plugin for sentry (sentry-cfml) that includes a custom interface so that raven-cfml can send CFML specific variables.

Once installed, you can reference it using

<cfset ravenConfig = structNew()>
...
<cfset ravenConfig.customHttpInterface = 'sentry_cfml.interfaces.CFMLHttp'>
...
<cfset ravenClient = createObject('component', '[path.to.raven].lib.client').init(argumentCollection=ravenConfig)>
