README

A battle-tested, resilient 500 error reporting and monitoring system for Laravel (supporting Laravel 10, 11, 12, and 13). Built with bulletproof failover, inbox flood protection, Vite & Inertia.js awareness, Livewire support, and an optional Filament Admin UI component.

🌟 Key Features

• 🚨 Real-Time 500 Error Alerts: Instant, beautifully styled email notifications sent directly to your designated email (or configurable multi-recipient lists) whenever an unhandled 500 error or fatal exception occurs.
• 🛡️ Fail-Safe Architecture (Zero Reliance on Broken Services): If a 500 error is caused by MySQL or Redis being completely down, the package catches the failure and falls back to a standalone file-based cooldown lock. The alerting system never crashes your application or breaks user error responses.
• 🌊 Smart Flood Protection & Burst Limiter:
  • Fingerprint Deduplication: Hashes sha256(class + file + line + normalized_message) to prevent duplicate emails for repeating errors.
  • Configurable Cooldown: Suppresses duplicate alerts for 30 minutes (configurable), while tracking recurrence counts ("Occurred 42 times during cooldown").
  • Circuit Breaker: Automatically throttles if total system errors spike over a global threshold (e.g., max 15 emails/hour) to protect your inbox and SMTP quota during server meltdowns.
• 🔒 Automatic Sensitive Data Scrubbing: Automatically scrubs passwords, authorization bearer tokens, API secrets, credit cards, and session cookies from request headers and payloads.
• ⚡ 100% Vite & Inertia.js Compatible: Email templates use self-contained, inlined CSS—completely independent of Vite compilation, Tailwind builds, or local dev servers. Automatically captures Inertia component names and SPA AJAX payloads.
• 🎛️ Laravel Livewire & Queue Support: Detects Livewire component actions, method parameters, and failed queued background jobs.
• 🖥️ Optional Filament Admin UI Plugin: Ready-to-use Filament v3/v4 dashboard widget and error management resource with full stack trace viewer and "Mark as Resolved" actions.
• 🛠️ Artisan CLI Tools: Includes php artisan error-reporter:test, php artisan error-reporter:clear, and php artisan error-reporter:prune.

📦 Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require sadpcd/laravel-error-reporter

Publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="error-reporter-config"

(Optional) If you want to use the database error log and Filament UI:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="error-reporter-migrations"
php artisan migrate

⚙️ Configuration (.env)

Simply add your email to .env to enable 500 error alerts:

# Your email to receive 500 server error alerts (Required to enable alerts)
ERROR_ALERT_EMAIL=[e-mail]

# Optional settings:
ERROR_ALERTS_ENABLED=true
ERROR_ALERTS_ENVIRONMENTS=production,staging
ERROR_ALERTS_THROTTLE_MINUTES=30
ERROR_ALERTS_BURST_MAX=15
ERROR_ALERTS_QUEUE=false

Note: If ERROR_ALERT_EMAIL is not set or is empty, the alerting engine is automatically disabled, generating zero overhead and sending no emails.

🖥️ Filament Admin Panel Integration

If your application uses Filament, you can register the Error Reporter Plugin in your Panel Provider (e.g. app/Providers/Filament/AdminPanelProvider.php):

use Sadpcd\ErrorReporter\Filament\ErrorReporterPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ...
        ->plugins([
            ErrorReporterPlugin::make()
                ->navigationGroup('Monitoring')
                ->enableWidget(true),
        ]);
}

(Note: Sadpcd\ErrorAlerts\Filament\ErrorAlertsPlugin is also available as a backward-compatible alias)

What You Get in Filament:

1. 500 Error Reports Resource: Searchable list of all captured errors, occurrence counts, status badges (Unresolved / Resolved / Ignored), and full stack trace inspector.
2. Dashboard Overview Widget: Real-time stats card displaying 24h error frequency and top failing exception.
3. Quick Actions: "Send Test Alert" and "Clear Cooldowns" directly from the admin panel.

🛠️ Artisan Commands

1. Test Email Delivery

Trigger a simulated 500 error to verify that emails reach your mailbox properly:

php artisan error-reporter:test

# Or test sending to an explicit email:
php artisan error-reporter:test --email=[e-mail]

2. Clear Active Cooldowns

Reset rate-limiting locks and burst counters:

php artisan error-reporter:clear

3. Prune Old Database Errors

Clean up historical error logs older than 30 days:

php artisan error-reporter:prune --days=30

🧪 Running Tests

composer test
# or
