An example showing use of Sentry to catch & report errors on both client + server side.
You will need a Sentry DSN for your project. You can get it from the Settings of your Project, in Client Keys (DSN), and copy the string labeled DSN (Public).
The Sentry DSN should then be added as an environment variable when running the dev
, build
, and start
scripts in package.json
:
{
"scripts": {
"dev": "SENTRY_DSN=<dsn> node server.js",
"build": "SENTRY_DSN=<dsn> next build",
"start": "SENTRY_DSN=<dsn> NODE_ENV=production node server.js"
}
}
Note: Setting environment variables in a package.json
is not secure, it is done here only for demo purposes. See the with-dotenv
example for an example of how to set environment variables safely.
