When a variable is used in a template string, its `.toString()` method is called, and most non-native objects, when stringified with `.toString()`, come out as `"[object Object]"`. In our `logger`, we use a template string to concatenate all of the arguments we're given. As a result, users can get error messages like:

```
Sentry Logger [Error]: Error while sending event: [object Object]
```

in cases where the error is not an actual `Error`, which is obviously not very helpful.

The underlying `console` methods upon which our `logger` methods rely can generally do better, though, and will attempt to print the actual contents of any object they're given. This changes the `logger` methods so that they pass their arguments on to the `console` methods intact, rather than as a pre-concatenated string, in order to be able to take advantage of the improved logging of objects. It also changes all instances of "error while" logs like the one above to pass their error objects separately rather than as part of a template string, in order to take advantage of this change.

Note: There are almost certainly other places in the repo where we log objects which could benefit from this change. In the interests of time, however, this PR is restricted to the ones which brought this issue to light, and others can be solved in future PRs as necessary.

Supported Platforms

For each major JavaScript platform, there is a specific high-level SDK that provides all the tools you need in a single package. Please refer to the README and instructions of those SDKs for more detailed information:

  • @sentry/browser: SDK for Browsers including integrations for Backbone
  • @sentry/node: SDK for Node, including integrations for Express, Koa, Loopback, Sails and Connect
  • @sentry/angular: browser SDK with Angular integration enabled
  • @sentry/react: browser SDK with React integration enabled
  • @sentry/ember: browser SDK with Ember integration enabled
  • @sentry/vue: browser SDK with Vue integration enabled
  • @sentry/gatsby: SDK for Gatsby
  • @sentry/nextjs: SDK for Next.js
  • @sentry/integrations: Pluggable integrations that can be used to enhance JS SDKs
  • @sentry/electron: SDK for Electron with support for native crashes
  • @sentry/react-native: SDK for React Native with support for native crashes
  • @sentry/capacitor: SDK for Capacitor Apps and Ionic with support for native crashes
  • sentry-cordova: SDK for Cordova Apps and Ionic with support for native crashes
  • raven-js: Our old stable JavaScript SDK, we still support and release bug fixes for the SDK but all new features will be implemented in @sentry/browser which is the successor.
  • raven: Our old stable Node SDK, same as for raven-js we still support and release bug fixes for the SDK but all new features will be implemented in @sentry/node which is the successor.

Installation and Usage

To install a SDK, simply add the high-level package, for example:

npm install --save @sentry/browser
yarn add @sentry/browser

Setup and usage of these SDKs always follows the same principle.

import { init, captureMessage } from '@sentry/browser';

init({
  dsn: '__DSN__',
  // ...
});

captureMessage('Hello, world!');

Other Packages

Besides the high-level SDKs, this repository contains shared packages, helpers and configuration used for SDK development. If you're thinking about contributing to or creating a JavaScript-based SDK, have a look at the resources below:

  • @sentry/tracing: Provides Integrations and extensions for Performance Monitoring / Tracing
  • @sentry/hub: Global state management of SDKs
  • @sentry/minimal: Minimal SDK for library authors to add Sentry support
  • @sentry/core: The base for all JavaScript SDKs with interfaces, type definitions and base classes.
  • @sentry/utils: A set of helpers and utility functions useful for various SDKs.
  • @sentry/types: Types used in all packages.
