Exceptions

Exceptions is a Ruby gem that provides the right amount of abstraction for doing exception tracking in Ruby.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'exceptions'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install exceptions

Configuration

Exceptions provides the concept of "backends" that allow you to configure what happens when Exceptions.notify is called. The following backends are provided:

• Null: This backend does nothing. Useful in tests.
• Raiser: This backend will simply raise the exception.
• Logger: This backend will log the exception to stdout.
• Honeybadger: This backend will send the exception to honeybadger using the honeybadger-ruby gem.
• Multi: A meta backend to compose other backends into a single backend.
• LogResult: Another meta backend that wraps an existing backend to log the result in logfmt.

Usage

Track an exception

Exceptions.notify(StandardError.new("Boom"))

Set context

Exceptions.context(request_id: 'dc2d304c-6276-4c1f-9f0d-cc910f4487fd')

Clear context

Exceptions.clear_context

Rack

Rack middleware is included which can be used to catch exceptions, shuttle them off somewhere and raise the exception again.
