Primary LanguageJavaScript

TCP proxy for buffering connections to Sentry so that they don't add request latency to reporting applications

Prerequisites

  • [Node.js][node] 0.8.8
  • [Redis]

Install & Setup

Get the code from [GitHub][router]:

cd ~/Projects
git clone git@github.com:globaldev/error-proxy.git
cd error-proxy

Install NodeJS 0.8.8

brew install n
n 0.8.8

Installing the dependencies:

npm install

If an CERT_UNTRUSTED error is thrown during npm install try:

npm config set strict-ssl false

Create configuration files by copying the example configuration:

cp config/config.json.example config/config.json

##Adding a new project

  1. Get Ops to create the project in Sentry

  2. Update config.json with those details

    "UUID_string": {
    "id": "SENTRY_PROJECT_ID",
    "key": "SENTRY_KEY",
    "secret": "SENTRY_SECRET",
    "platform": "SENTRY_PLATFORM"
}

    If the project exists in Airbrake set the Airbrake key as the UUID_string.

  3. Update your app to point to the error proxy and set the api_key to the UUID_string.

    Airbrake.configure do |config|
  config.api_key = "UUID_string"
  config.host = "errorproxy1"
  config.port = "6633"
end

Running

cd ~/Projects/error-proxy
npm start
