pyramid_ratchet

pyramid_ratchet is a simple middleware for reporting errors from Pyramid apps to Ratchet.io.

If pyramid_debugtoolbar is available, it will be monkey-patched so that exception pages show a link to the relevant item in Ratchet.io.

Requirements

pyramid_ratchet requires:

• Python 2.6 or 2.7
• Pyramid 1.2+
• requests 0.12+
• a Ratchet.io error reporting account

Installation

Install using pip:

pip install pyramid_ratchet

Configuration

Add pyramid_ratchet to the end of your pyramid.includes:

[app:main]
pyramid.includes =
    pyramid_debugtoolbar
    pyramid_ratchet

Add the bare minimum configuration variables:

[app:main]
ratchet.access_token = 32charactertoken

Most users will want a few extra settings to take advantage of more features:

[app:main]
ratchet.access_token = 32charactertoken
ratchet.environment = production
ratchet.branch = master
ratchet.root = %(here)s

To enable Person tracking (to associate errors with users), attach a "ratchet_person" property to your request objects. It should return a dictionary containing an 'id' identifying the user (any string up to 40 characters), and may optionally include 'username' and 'email' (255-char strings). For example:

class MyRequest(pyramid.request.Request):

@property def ratchet_person(self): return { 'id': get_user_id(self), 'username': get_username(self), 'email': get_user_email(self) }

# when setting up your Configurator: config = Configurator(settings=settings, request_factory=MyRequest)

If your request objects don't have a ratchet_person object, pyramid_ratchet will look for request.user_id instead.

Here's the full list of configuration variables:

access_token

Access token from your Ratchet.io project

handler

One of:

• blocking -- runs in main thread
• thread -- spawns a new thread
• agent -- writes messages to a log file for consumption by ratchet-agent

default: thread

environment

Environment name. Any string up to 255 chars is OK. For best results, use "production" for your production environment.

root

Absolute path to the root of your application, not including the final /. %(here)s is probably what you want.

branch

Name of the checked-out branch.

default: master

agent.log_file

If handler is agent, the path to the log file. Filename must end in .ratchet

allow_test

When true, adds a hook to send a test error report (but not interrupt the request in any other way) whenever the query string contains pyramid_ratchet_test=true.

default: true

endpoint

URL items are posted to.

default: https://submit.ratchet.io/api/1/item/

web_base

Base URL of the Ratchet.io web interface (used for links on the exception debug page)

default https://ratchet.io

patch_debugtoolbar

If true, pyramid_debugtoolbar will be monkeypatched so that exception debug pages include a link to the item in Ratchet.io

default true

scrub_fields

List of field names to scrub out of POST. Values will be replaced with astrickses. If overridiing, make sure to list all fields you want to scrub, not just fields you want to add to the default. Param names are converted to lowercase before comparing against the scrub list.

default ['passwd', 'password', 'secret']
