BlendInteractive.Sentry 1.0.4

BlendInteractive.Sentry

Blend's default Sentry configuration. This repo / nuget package is a simple way to ensure all Blend-related Sentry installations are consistent and have a default minimum exception filtering applied.

Installation

For .NET 4.8:

1. Install the BlendInteractive.Sentry package.
2. In your global.asax.cs file, in the Application_Start method, call ApplicationStartupExtensions.InitializeSentry, optionally passing in a Func<Exception?, bool> method to add further filtering. Keep the returned IDisposable value in a member.
3. In the Application_Error method, get the last server error and pass it to ApplicationStartupExtensions.LogException.
4. In the Application_End method, dispose of the IDisposable instance returned by ApplicationStartupExtensions.InitializeSentry.

    private static IDisposable? _sentry = null;

    protected void Application_Start()
    {
        _sentry = ApplicationStartupExtensions.InitializeSentry();
    }

    protected void Application_Error()
    {
        var exception = Server.GetLastError();
        ApplicationStartupExtensions.LogException(exception);
    }

    protected void Application_End()
    {
        _sentry?.Dispose();
    }

For .NET 5:

1. Install the BlendInteractive.Sentry package.
2. In the Program.cs file, in the CreateHostBuilder method, call the the UseBlendSentry extension method from your IWebHostBuilder builder, optionally passing in a Func<Exception?, bool> method to add further filtering.

    return Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
        .ConfigureCmsDefaults()
        .ConfigureAppConfiguration((ctx, builder) => {
            builder.AddConfiguration(_configuration);
        })
        .ConfigureWebHostDefaults(webBuilder =>
        {
            webBuilder
                // return true if the message should be filtered and removed. 
                .UseBlendSentry(ex => ex!.Message.Contains("this is the text in the exception message to filter", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase)) 
                .UseStartup<Startup>();
        });
