Sentry on Heroku

Sentry on Heroku

Sentry is a realtime event logging and aggregation platform. At its core it specializes in monitoring errors and extracting all the information needed to do a proper post-mortem without any of the hassle of the standard user feedback loop.

Quick setup

Click the button below to automatically set up the Sentry in an app running on your Heroku account.

Finally, you need to setup your first user:

heroku run "sentry --config=sentry.conf.py createuser" --app YOURAPPNAME

Manual setup

Follow the steps below to get Sentry up and running on Heroku:

1. Create a new Heroku application. Replace "APP_NAME" with your application's name:

   heroku apps:create APP_NAME
   

2. Add PostgresSQL to the application:

   heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev
   

3. Add Redis to the application:

   heroku addons:create heroku-redis:premium-0
   

4. Set Django's secret key for cryptographic signing and Sentry's shared secret for global administration privileges:

   heroku config:set SECRET_KEY=$(python -c "import base64, os; print(base64.b64encode(os.urandom(40)).decode())")
   

5. Set the absolute URL to the Sentry root directory. The URL should not include a trailing slash. Replace the URL below with your application's URL:

   heroku config:set SENTRY_URL_PREFIX=https://sentry-example.herokuapp.com
   

6. Deploy Sentry to Heroku:

   git push heroku master
   

7. Sentry's database migrations are automatically run as part of the Heroku release phase

   heroku run "sentry --config=sentry.conf.py upgrade --noinput"
   

8. Create a user account for yourself:

   heroku run "sentry --config=sentry.conf.py createuser"
   

That's it!

Email notifications

Follow the steps below, if you want to enable Sentry's email notifications:

1. Add SendGrid add-on to your Heroku application:

   heroku addons:create sendgrid
   

2. Set the reply-to email address for outgoing mail:

   heroku config:set [email protected]
   

sentry-on-heroku's Issues

Regenerate sentry config

It looks like the default sentry config file has changed a bit since the one here was generated--a bunch of options that sentry used to accept are gone. We should probably regenerate sentry.conf.py and config.yml so they're up to date.

Unable to send mail

I set up my app using the 'Deploy to Heroku' button. It seems to work fine, but I noticed it wasn't sending mail, so I went to https://MYAPPNAME.herokuapp.com/manage/status/mail/, clicked the 'Send a test email to ...' button, and recived the following error:

'module' object has no attribute 'sslwrap'

Unfortunately the error does not appear to be logged to the Heroku log, so I can't say any more than that at the moment.

Celery is using 100% CPU

I have not changed anything in config and just used what was here. Celeryd is using 100% cpu and I don't know how to fix this

Upgrade Sentry to latest version

According to Sentry's Github, the latest version is 7.4.3, but we depend on version 6.4.4. Would upgrading be as simple as bumping the version in requirements.txt or might it cause issues?

sentry 8.20.0 on heroku: Cannot find `node` executable

I am trying to get the current sentry release 8.20.0 running on heroku.

It was working with the older versions, but with this I get an error to install node (see backtrace).

Any ideas how to solve this?

Mandrill are withdrawing their plans on Heroku

I received this email yesterday:

The Mandrill team has chosen not to continue development of this add-on. It is not possible to migrate your existing account directly to Mandrill; a new account will need to be created.

The Mandrill add-on will be removed from all apps in 60 days. We advise you to remove it yourself before that either via the Dashboard or via the CLI.

Please consider using SendGrid or another add-on in Elements for your app's email needs. Contact our support team if you run into any problems.

how to add new plugins?

in Docker deploy, I have to add plugins to requirements.txt and build the image. in regular server install, I just do pip install

how can I add plugins on heroku?

Restore mandrill

Even though the mandril addon has been shut down on heroku, users might still want to use an independent mandrill account. I'm using this repo (with a few modifications) to deploy to cloud foundry, using mandrill to send mail. Would you be willing to revert 3d94724 ?

Deployment fails

Hi,
thanks for putting this together. I'm running into an issue when using heroku button to deploy. Here is the trace. Any idea?

Missing or renamed add-on

Getting this error when trying to deploy:

No such add-on plan.

No further info on which add-on is missing.

No event showing

Hi, I installed using the Heroku button. Logged in, copied and pasted the DSN URL to my other app, tried to throw 404 error but no event showing. What did I miss? Please help.

Combined worker+beat dyno for free tier

Heroku's free tier only allows one worker dyno to run at a time. Since celery can process multiple queues in the same process, I would suggest adding a combined process to Procfile that runs both worker and beat queues at once.

How to install plugins?

I'm trying to install the hipchat plugin for sentry but after I run "pip install sentry-hipchat" in the heroku cli its not showing up in the integrations panel. I've tried restarting the server but with the same result.

Just curious if you've run into this with the heroku install before...

heroku can't find sentry executable
