⚠️ This Plug is deprecated. Please use the official AppSignal JavaScript front-end integration instead.

A plug for sending JavaScript errors to AppSignal. Works for Phoenix and Plug-only apps.

Note: This is not an official AppSignal package. It's is not supported by AppSignal. Use at your own risk.

• AppSignal.com website
• AppSignal for Elixir documentation
• AppSignal for Front-end error handling (Beta) documentation Replaced with new JavaScript front-end integration.

Add the following parser to your endpoint.ex file.

plug Plug.Parsers,
  parsers: [:urlencoded, :multipart, :json],
  pass: ["*/*"],
  json_decoder: Poison

plug Appsignal.JSPlug # Above your app's router plug
plug MyExampleApp.Router

Now send the errors with a POST request to the /appsignal_error_catcher endpoint. An example JavaScript is provided on the AppSignal docs website in the Front-end error handling section.

For more information see the AppSignal Front-end error handling Beta docs.

Make sure to install the AppSignal for Elixir package first by following the installation guide.

After having successfully installed AppSignal add appsignal_js_plug to your list of dependencies in mix.exs.

# mix.exs
def deps do
  [
    {:appsignal, ">= 1.3.0"},
    {:appsignal_js_plug, "~> 0.2"}
  ]
end

Then run mix deps.get.

This package listens to the AppSignal for Elixir filter_parameters configuration option. If this option is set, all parameters values matching a key name from the configuration will be replaced with [FILTERED].

# config/appsignal.exs
config :appsignal, :config, filter_parameters: ["password"]

This package listens to the AppSignal for Elixir skip_session_data configuration option. If this option is set to true, no session data will be added to the JavaScript errors.

# config/appsignal.exs
config :appsignal, :config, skip_session_data: true

Package testing is done with ExUnit and can be run with the mix test command. You can also supply a path to a specific file path you want to test and even a specific line on which the test you want to run is defined.

mix deps.get
mix test
mix test test/appsignal/some_test.ex:123
