Is there any way to disable sentry for laravel 5 on local environnement? I have removed the SENTRY_DSN entry from my .env file and it seems to work but I am not sure it's the right way. Should I add some check about env in report function? Or is there any better way? App\Exceptions\Handler looks like this:
public function report(Exception $e)
{
if ($this->shouldReport($e)) {
app('sentry')->captureException($e);
}
parent::report($e);
}
You can check if you are in production for both the report() and render() functions.
Here is an updated App\Exceptions\Handler file for example.
public function report(Exception $e)
{
if (app()->environment('production') && $this->shouldReport($e)) {
app('sentry')->captureException($e);
}
parent::report($e);
}
...
public function render($request, Exception $e)
{
if ($e instanceof ModelNotFoundException) {
$e = new NotFoundHttpException($e->getMessage(), $e);
}
if (app()->environment('production')) {
return response()->view('errors.500', null, 500);
}
return parent::render($request, $e);
}
This way you still have whoops errors showing in local and a custom 500 error page for production.
The suggested way to disable Sentry SDKs is by setting the SENTRY_DSN value to something falsey, so your intuition here is correct.
