Angular

On this page, we get you up and running with Sentry's SDK, so that it will automatically report errors and exceptions in your application.

Don't already have an account and Sentry project established? Head over to sentry.io, then return to this page.

Install

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

Copied
npm install --save @sentry/angular @sentry/tracing

Configure

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

Once this is done, Sentry's Angular SDK captures all unhandled exceptions and transactions.

Copied
import { enableProdMode } from "@angular/core";
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic";
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/angular";
import { BrowserTracing } from "@sentry/tracing";
import { AppModule } from "./app/app.module";

Sentry.init({
  dsn: "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0" ,
  integrations: [
    // Registers and configures the Tracing integration,
    // which automatically instruments your application to monitor its
    // performance, including custom Angular routing instrumentation
    new BrowserTracing({
      tracePropagationTargets: ["localhost", "https://yourserver.io/api"],
      routingInstrumentation: Sentry.routingInstrumentation,
    }),
  ],

  // Set tracesSampleRate to 1.0 to capture 100%
  // of transactions for performance monitoring.
  // We recommend adjusting this value in production
  tracesSampleRate: 1.0,
});


platformBrowserDynamic()
  .bootstrapModule(AppModule)
  .then(success => console.log(`Bootstrap success`))
  .catch(err => console.error(err));

You can also configure @sentry/angular to catch any Angular-specific exceptions reported through the @angular/core/ErrorHandler provider.

@sentry/angular exports a Trace Service, Directive, and Decorators that leverages the @sentry/tracing, Sentry's Tracing integration, to add Angular-related spans to transactions. The service itself tracks route changes and durations, where directive and decorators are tracking component initializations.

Automatically Send Errors with ErrorHandler

@sentry/angular exports a function to instantiate an ErrorHandler provider that will automatically send JavaScript errors captured by the Angular's error handler.

Copied
import { NgModule, ErrorHandler } from "@angular/core";
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/angular";

@NgModule({
  // ...
  providers: [
    {
      provide: ErrorHandler,
      useValue: Sentry.createErrorHandler({
        showDialog: true,
      }),
    },
  ],
  // ...
})
export class AppModule {}

You can configure the behavior of createErrorHandler. For more details see the ErrorHandlerOptions interface in our repository.

Register TraceService

In Angular's DI system, register TraceService as a provider with a Router as its dependency:

Copied
import { NgModule } from "@angular/core";
import { Router } from "@angular/router";
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/angular";

@NgModule({
  // ...
  providers: [
    {
      provide: Sentry.TraceService,
      deps: [Router],
    },
  ],
  // ...
})
export class AppModule {}

Then, either require the TraceService from inside AppModule or use APP_INITIALIZER to force instantiate Tracing.

Copied
@NgModule({
  // ...
})
export class AppModule {
  constructor(trace: Sentry.TraceService) {}
}

or

Copied
import { APP_INITIALIZER } from "@angular/core";
@NgModule({
  // ...
  providers: [
    {
      provide: APP_INITIALIZER,
      useFactory: () => () => {},
      deps: [Sentry.TraceService],
      multi: true,
    },
  ],
  // ...
})
export class AppModule {}

Verify

This snippet includes an intentional error, so you can test that everything is working as soon as you set it up:

Copied
myUndefinedFunction();

To view and resolve the recorded error, log into sentry.io and open your project. Clicking on the error's title will open a page where you can see detailed information and mark it as resolved.

Add Readable Stack Traces to Errors

Depending on how you've set up your JavaScript project, the stack traces in your Sentry errors probably don't look like your actual code.

To fix this, head over to our source maps documentation where you'll learn how to upload source maps, so you can make sense of your stack traces.
