Sentry Lamda HTTP Proxy Transport

Drop-in replacement transport for Sentry to transmit events via Lambda HTTP proxy

If you run into the problem of not being able to perform HTTP requests to external resources from a resource within a VPC, e.g. a Lambda function, then performing the HTTP request through a simple Lambda HTTP proxy function could be a solution.

This module builds on top of lambda-http-proxy and allows to use Sentry error logging from inside a AWS VPC without requiring complex networking setup.

Installation

npm install sentry-lambda-proxy-transport --save

AWS Requirements

Please follow the instructions for lambda-http-proxy to configure your AWS environment correctly.

Usage example

After having prepared your AWS environment, you can now import the module into your project, e.g. a Lambda function and initialize your Sentry instance to send events via the Lambda proxy function:

import { LambdaProxyTransport } from "@mailbutler/sentry-lambda-proxy-transport";

Sentry.init({
  // regular configuration of your Sentry instance, including 'dsn'

  // use Lambda proxy transport instead of default HTTP transport
  transport: LambdaProxyTransport,
});
