Sentry

The Sentry package contains an implementation of a bridge between the sentry-go package and glog which allows for glog errors of level ERROR to be tracked as errors in Sentry. This includes custom code that interfaces with the xerrors package (as well as the Yext fork named yerrors) in order to send stack trace data for the glog invocation, error object construction, and any masked error calls to Sentry.

sentry.CaptureErrors is the entrypoint for tracking Sentry exceptions via glog. Given Sentry DSNs and client options (DSN should not be specified in opts), constructs individual Sentry Client's for each DSN. The glog.Event channel should be provided by running glog.RegisterBackend(). For example:

sentry.CaptureErrors(
  "projectName",
  []string{"https://primaryDsn", "https://optionalSecondaryDsn", ...},
  sentrygo.ClientOptions{
    Release: "release",
    Environment: "prod",
  },
  glog.RegisterBackend())

When an event is received via glog at the ERROR severity, the first provided DSN will be used, unless a sentry.AltDsn is tagged on the glog event, in which case the specified client for that DSN will be used:

glog.Error("error for secondary DSN", sentry.AltDsn("https://optionalSecondaryDsn"))
