Node.js

These examples should be used as guidance when configuring Sentry functionlaity within a project.

# Error / Exception Tracking

- Use `Sentry.captureException(error)` to capture an exception and log the error in Sentry.
- Use this in try catch blocks or areas where exceptions are expected

# Logs

- Where logs are used, ensure they are imported using `import * as Sentry from "@sentry/node"`
- Reference the logger using `const { logger } = Sentry`
- Sentry initialization needs to be updated to include the `logger` integration.
- Sentry offers a consoleLoggingIntegration that can be used to log specific console error types automatically without instrumenting the individual logger calls

## Configuration

- In Node.js the Sentry initialization is typically in `instrumentation.ts`

### Baseline

```javascript
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/node";

Sentry.init({
  dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",

  _experiments: {
    enableLogs: true,
  },
});
```

### Logger Integration

```javascript
Sentry.init({
  dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
  integrations: [
    // send console.log, console.error, and console.warn calls as logs to Sentry
    Sentry.consoleLoggingIntegration({ levels: ["log", "error", "warn"] }),
  ],
});
```

## Logger Examples

```javascript
logger.trace("Starting database connection", { database: "users" });
logger.debug("Cache miss for user", { userId: 123 });
logger.info("Updated profile", { profileId: 345 });
logger.warn("Rate limit reached for endpoint", {
  endpoint: "/api/results/",
  isEnterprise: false,
});
logger.error("Failed to process payment", {
  orderId: "order_123",
  amount: 99.99,
});
logger.fatal("Database connection pool exhausted", {
  database: "users",
  activeConnections: 100,
});
```

# Tracing Examples

- Spans should be created for meaningful actions within an applications like button clicks, API calls, and function calls
- Ensure you are creating custom spans with meaningful names and operations
- Use the `Sentry.startSpan` function to create a span
- Child spans can exist within a parent span

## Custom Span instrumentation in component actions

```javascript
function TestComponent() {
  const handleTestButtonClick = () => {
    // Create a transaction/span to measure performance
    Sentry.startSpan(
      {
        op: "ui.click",
        name: "Test Button Click",
      },
      async (span) => {
        const value = "some config";
        const metric = "some metric";

        // Metrics can be added to the span
        span.setAttribute("config", value);
        span.setAttribute("metric", metric);

        doSomething();
      },
    );
  };

  return (
    <button type="button" onClick={handleTestButtonClick}>
      Test Sentry
    </button>
  );
}
```

## Custom span instrumentation in API calls

```javascript
async function fetchUserData(userId) {
  return Sentry.startSpan(
    {
      op: "http.client",
      name: `GET /api/users/${userId}`,
    },
    async () => {
      try {
        const response = await fetch(`/api/users/${userId}`);
        const data = await response.json();
        return data;
      } catch (error) {
        // Capture error with the current span
        Sentry.captureException(error);
        throw error;
      }
    },
  );
}
```
