If you prefer to follow video instructions, see How to Install the Sentry Ruby SDK in 60 Seconds.

Install

Sentry captures data by using an SDK within your application’s runtime.

Add sentry-ruby and sentry-sidekiq to your Gemfile:

gem "sentry-ruby"
gem "sentry-sidekiq"

Configure

Configuration should happen as early as possible in your application's lifecycle.

require 'sentry-ruby'

Sentry.init do |config|
  config.dsn = 'https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0'
  # enable performance monitoring
  config.enable_tracing = true
  # get breadcrumbs from logs
  config.breadcrumbs_logger = [:sentry_logger, :http_logger]
end

Verify
