Flare error tracker integration for Craft CMS

Flare overview

Requirements

This plugin requires Craft CMS 4.5.0/5.0.0 or later, and PHP 8.0.2 or later.

You'll also have to provide an Flare API key.

🙏 You can create a Flare account using our affiliate link: Flare This helps a lot supporting the maintenance of this plugin.

Installation

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

  1. Open your terminal and go to your Craft project:

     cd /path/to/project
    
  2. Then tell Composer to load the plugin and install it:

     composer require "webhubworks/craft-flare" -w && php craft plugin/install craft-flare
    
     # or with DDEV
     ddev composer require "webhubworks/craft-flare" -w && ddev craft plugin/install craft-flare
    

Configuration

Create a new PHP project in Flare or go to the settings page of your existing Flare project and copy your project specific Flare API key. Paste this key into the Craft Flare settings.

Bootstrapping (optional)

To load Flare as early as possible during the application boot up add the following line as the first entry of bootstrap into your config/app.php file:

# config/app.php

'bootstrap' => [
    '\webhubworks\flare\Bootstrap', // <-- Add this line as the first entry
    // other bootstrap entries
],

Usage

In general, you do not need to do anything. This plugin will report exceptions to Flare automatically. In case you want to report manually or e.g. add context/glow, you can use CraftFlare::getFlareInstance(). Example:

CraftFlare::getFlareInstance()
   ->context('Order', [
         'price' => $order->price,
         'currency' => $order->currency,
    ])
   ->report(new \Exception('Test exception'));

Testing Flare

In order to quickly test whether everything is set up correctly and if errors are reported to Flare, you can use the buttons in the "Testing Error-Tracking" section on the plugins settings page.
