log4js appender - Sentry

Sends logging events to Sentry. This appender integrates @sentry/node.

Installation

Configuration

import "log4js-appender-sentry";

Example

import log4js from "log4js";

import "log4js-appender-cloudwatch";

log4js.configure({
	appenders: {
		sentry: {
			type: "log4js-appender-sentry",
			dsn: "<config>",
			user: {
				// ...
			},
		},
	},
	categories: {
		default: {
			level: "debug",
			appenders: [
				"sentry",
			],
		},
	},
});

const log = log4js.getLogger();
// ...
