Exception monitoring via Laravel Telescope

Laravel already allows you to get notified when something goes wrong in your application. You can, for example, log exceptions to the log file and to Slack by configuring a log stack and setting it as your default log channel. However, one disadvantage is that subsequent occurrences of the same exception will also be logged, causing a flood of notifications when there is an exception that occurs frequently.

This package aims to solve that problem by logging the exceptions recorded by Telescope to a log channel. When an exception has already occurred before (according to the data stored by Telescope), it will not be logged again.

Tip

Laravel 10 added support for throttling reported exceptions. You should use that instead, if you're only interested in preventing floods of notifications.

Exceptions causing a queued job to fail will also be recorded as a Telescope exception entry, so they will also be logged to the configured channel.

Installation

composer require adriaanzon/laravel-telescope-monitor

Configuration

The log channel can be configured by adding TELESCOPE_MONITOR_LOG_CHANNEL to your dotenv file, for example:

TELESCOPE_MONITOR_LOG_CHANNEL=slack

In your local development environment, you'd typically disable Laravel Telescope Monitor by excluding TELESCOPE_MONITOR_LOG_CHANNEL from your .env file or setting it to null:

TELESCOPE_MONITOR_LOG_CHANNEL=null

To configure other options, you can publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="AdriaanZon\TelescopeMonitor\TelescopeMonitorServiceProvider"
