raven-php

raven-php is a PHP client for Sentry.

// Instantiate a new client with a compatible DSN
$client = new Raven_Client('http://public:secret@example.com/1');

// Capture a message
$event_id = $client->getIdent($client->captureMessage('my log message'));
if ($client->getLastError() !== null) {
    printf('There was an error sending the event to Sentry: %s', $client->getLastError());
}

// Capture an exception
$event_id = $client->getIdent($client->captureException($ex));

// Provide some additional data with an exception
$event_id = $client->getIdent($client->captureException($ex, array(
    'extra' => array(
        'php_version' => phpversion()
    ),
)));

// Give the user feedback
echo "Sorry, there was an error!";
echo "Your reference ID is " . $event_id;

// Install error handlers and shutdown function to catch fatal errors
$error_handler = new Raven_ErrorHandler($client);
$error_handler->registerExceptionHandler();
$error_handler->registerErrorHandler();
$error_handler->registerShutdownFunction();

Installation

Install with Composer

If you're using Composer to manage dependencies, you can add Raven with it.

$ composer require raven/raven:$VERSION

(replace $VERSION with one of the available versions on Packagist) or to get the latest version off the master branch:

$ composer require raven/raven:dev-master

Note that using unstable versions is not recommended and should be avoided. Also you should define a maximum version, e.g. by doing >=0.6,<1.0 or ~0.6.

Alternatively, use the ^ operator for specifying a version, e.g.,

$ composer require raven/raven:^0.11.0

Composer will take care of the autoloading for you, so if you require the vendor/autoload.php, you're good to go.

Install source from GitHub

To install the source code:

$ git clone git://github.com/getsentry/raven-php.git

And including it using the autoloader:

require_once '/path/to/Raven/library/Raven/Autoloader.php';
Raven_Autoloader::register();

Testing Your Connection

The PHP client includes a simple helper script to test your connection and credentials with the Sentry master server:

$ bin/raven test https://public:secret@app.getsentry.com/1
Client configuration:
-> server: [https://sentry.example.com/api/store/]
-> project: 1
-> public_key: public
-> secret_key: secret

Sending a test event:
-> event ID: f1765c9aed4f4ceebe5a93df9eb2d34f

Done!

Note

The CLI enforces the synchronous option on HTTP requests whereas the default configuration is asyncrhonous.

Configuration

Several options exist that allow you to configure the behavior of the Raven_Client. These are passed as the second parameter of the constructor, and is expected to be an array of key value pairs:

$client = new Raven_Client($dsn, array(
    'option_name' => 'value',
));

`name`

A string to override the default value for the server's hostname.

Defaults to Raven_Compat::gethostname().

`tags`

An array of tags to apply to events in this context.

'tags' => array(
    'php_version' => phpversion(),
)

`curl_method`

Defaults to 'sync'.

Available methods:

sync (default): send requests immediately when they're made
async: uses a curl_multi handler for best-effort asynchronous submissions
exec: asynchronously send events by forking a curl process for each item

`curl_path`

Defaults to 'curl'.

Specify the path to the curl binary to be used with the 'exec' curl method.

`trace`

Set this to false to disable reflection tracing (function calling arguments) in stacktraces.

`logger`

Adjust the default logger name for messages.

Defaults to php.

`ca_cert`

The path to the CA certificate bundle.

Defaults to the common bundle which includes getsentry.com: ./data/cacert.pem

Caveats:

The CA bundle is ignored unless curl throws an error suggesting it needs a cert.
The option is only currently used within the synchronous curl transport.

`curl_ssl_version`

The SSL version (2 or 3) to use. By default PHP will try to determine this itself, although in some cases this must be set manually.

`message_limit`

Defaults to 1024 characters.

This value is used to truncate message and frame variables. However it is not guarantee that length of whole message will be restricted by this value.

`processors`

An array of classes to use to process data before it is sent to Sentry. By default, Raven_SanitizeDataProcessor is used

processorOptions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Options that will be passed on to a setProcessorOptions() function in a Raven_Processor sub-class before that Processor is added to the list of processors used by Raven_Client

An example of overriding the regular expressions in Raven_SanitizeDataProcessor is below:

'processorOptions' => array(
    'Raven_SanitizeDataProcessor' => array(
                'fields_re' => '/(user_password|user_token|user_secret)/i',
                'values_re' => '/^(?:\d[ -]*?){15,16}$/'
            )
)

Providing Request Context

Most of the time you're not actually calling out to Raven directly, but you still want to provide some additional context. This lifecycle generally constists of something like the following:

Set some context via a middleware (e.g. the logged in user)
Send all given context with any events during the request lifecycle
Cleanup context

There are three primary methods for providing request context:

// bind the logged in user
$client->user_context(array('email' => 'foo@example.com'));

// tag the request with something interesting
$client->tags_context(array('interesting' => 'yes'));

// provide a bit of additional context
$client->extra_context(array('happiness' => 'very'));

If you're performing additional requests during the lifecycle, you'll also need to ensure you cleanup the context (to reset its state):

$client->context->clear();

Contributing

First, make sure you can run the test suite. Install development dependencies :

$ composer install

You may now use phpunit :

$ vendor/bin/phpunit
