Status as of July 2016: Hoth is stable and can help you identify, track, and prioritize your ColdFusion bugs. However, I will not be investing resources in this package going forward. I had done quite a bit of ColdFusion work as a contractor working on projects for Adobe but that time is passed. If you would like to continue to grow this project please reach out to me as I would be happy to add you as a organizer. --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- __ __ ______ .___________. __ __ | | | | / __ \ | || | | | | |__| | | | | | `---| |----`| |__| | | __ | | | | | | | | __ | | | | | | `--' | | | | | | | |__| |__| \______/ |__| |__| |__| --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- MMI?????????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII7777777777777777MMM MM??????????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII7777777777777777MMM MM???????????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII77777777777777777MMM MM??????????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII77777777777777777MMM MM??????????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII77777777777777777MMM MM?????????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII7777777777777777777MMM MM????????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII77777777777777777777MMM MM??????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII7777777777777777777$$MMM MM?????????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII7777777777777777777$$$MMM MM??????????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII7777777777777777777$$$$$MMM MM??????????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII77777777777777777777$$$$$$MMM MM??????????????????????IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII777777777777777777$$$$$$$$$MMM MM?IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII,...........,IIIIIIIII777777777777777777$$$$$$$$$$MMM MMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII,...............+IIIII777777777777777777$$$$$$$$$$$$$MMM MMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII..................+III7777777777777777777$$$$$$$$$$$$$$MMM MMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII?........?7IIIII777.?77777777777777777777$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$MMM MMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII.......IIIIIIIII777777777................$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$MMM MMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII......+IIIIII7777777777777................I$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$MMM MMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII.......77777777777777777777................~$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$MMM MMIIIIIIIIIIIIII7I......777777777777777777777......7$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ZZZMMM MM777777777777777=......777777777777777777777......$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ZZ$ZZZMMM MM777777777777777......+77777777777777777777$......$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ZZZZZZZZZMMM MM777777777777777......I77777777777777777$$$$,...,,$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ZZZZZZZZZZZMMM MM777777777777777......+777777777777$$$$$$$$$,,,,,,+++++++++7$$$ZZZZZZZZZZZZZMMM MM777777777777777.......77777$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,+ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZMMM MM777777777777777+......7$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,+ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOMMM MM777777777777777$..,,,,~$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$,,,,,,?????????$ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZMMM MM$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.,,,,,,7$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$,,,,,,$ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOMMM MM$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.,,,,,,I$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$,,,,,,ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOMMM MM$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$Z,,,,,,,,=$$$$$$$$$$$+ZZZZ,,,,,,ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOMMM MM$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$Z,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.,,,=ZZZZ,,,,,,ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOMMM MM$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$:,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,=ZZZZ,,,,,,ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOZOOOOOOOOOMMM MM$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ZZZZZZZZ$,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ZZZZZ,,,,,,ZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM MM$ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ+,,,,,?ZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM MM$ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM MM$ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM MMZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM MMZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM MMZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO88MMM MMZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO888888MMM MMZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO888888888888MMM MMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO88888888888888888MMM MMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO88OO888888888888888888888MMM MMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO8OOOO88888888888888888888888888888MMM MMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO8OO8888888888888888888888888888888888888888MMM MM8OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO8888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888MMM MM888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888MMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Hoth aims to help developers better understand exceptions--caught or not--in their application so you can prioritize resolution. Hoth is a simple but effective exception content tracking system. What does Hoth do? ------------------ Hoth can send you an alert when a new, unique exception occurs within your application. You only receive these alerts the first time an exception is seen by Hoth. Is that all Hoth does? ---------------------- Nope! It gets better. Hoth also tracks each occurrence so you can quickly understand how frequent an exception is within your app. No more hunting through log files that repeat messages over, and over. Why should you use Hoth? ------------------------ Hoth helps you analyze your errors so you can prioritize and fix them without hunting through log, after log, after log......after log. How do you use Hoth? -------------------- You can read about, and learn how to implement, Hoth by reading the blog post here: https://github.com/aarongreenlee/Hoth/wiki How can I see the Hoth report right away? ----------------------------------------- If you would like to see the Hoth Report you can view the example exceptions by following these steps: 1. Drop Hoth in your Web root--or--make a server mapping '/Hoth' 2. Copy the /Hoth/examples/ColdFusion/HothReportUI.cfc to your Web site in an accessible location. 3. Hit the following URL: http://yourwebsite.com/HothReportUI.cfc?method=index 4. You should now be looking at example Hoth exceptions. High-level, 50,000 ft. view of what you need to do... ----------------------------------------------------- There are two distinct parts to Hoth: Tracking and Reporting. Tracking -------- Tracking is common to all applications and very easy to set up. These instructions will apply to all applications. Reporting --------- Things become a little (but not a lot) more complex here. Reporting requires access to your server from a HTTP call. This is your responsibility to setup--and there are lots of paths you can take to implement reporting. If you take the path of using the HothReportUI.cfc you will definitely want to open that file and make some edits (like adding the path to your own HothConfig). ******************************************************************************** ******************************************************************************** ******************************************************************************** Authors: ------- Aaron Greenlee - http://aarongreenlee.com Sean Coyne - http://www.n42designs.com Dan Skaggs - http://TNTechnoHermit.com Mike Henke - http://www.henke.ws James Brown - http://coldfusioning.com Dave Shuck - http://daveshuck.com Greg Moser - http://www.gregmoser.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Requirements Adobe ColdFusion 9.01 with HotFix 1 Applied Not yet tested on Railo or OpenBD. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hoth License This file is part of Hoth.
