Airbax

Elixir client for Airbrake.

Airbax is a clone of awesome Rollbax, but for Airbrake/Errbit.

Airbax was made by simply replacing 'rollbax' with 'airbax' everywhere in the code, changing Rollbax.Item and Rollbax.Client to make them compatible with Airbrake API specifications and fixing some tests. That's it.
All credits go to Rollbax.

Installation

Add Airbax as a dependency to your mix.exs file:

defp deps() do
  [{:airbax, "0.0.6"}]
end

and add it to your list of applications:

def application() do
  [applications: [:airbax]]
end

Then run mix deps.get in your shell to fetch the dependencies.

Usage

Airbax requires some configuration in order to work. For example, in config/config.exs:

config :airbax,
  project_key: "ffb8056a621f309eeb1ed87fa0c7",
  project_id: true,
  environment: "production"

If you're using Errbit, add to the configuration above an URL of your Errbit service as url parameter.

Then, exceptions (errors, exits, and throws) can be reported to Airbrake or Errbit using Airbax.report/3:

try do
  DoesNotExist.for_sure()
rescue
  exception ->
    Airbax.report(:error, exception, System.stacktrace())
end

Plug and Phoenix

For examples on how to take advantage of Airbax in Plug-based applications (including Phoenix applications), have a look at the "Using Airbax in Plug-based applications" page in the documentation.

Non-production reporting

For non-production environments error reporting can be either disabled completely (by setting :enabled to false) or replaced with logging of exceptions (by setting :enabled to :log).
