How do you configure a Sentry raven client in a development environment to not send exceptions and still work?
Solution 1
Documentation didn't say you have to set DSN
value, there's just an example how to set it.
In [1]: from raven import Client
In [2]: client = Client()
Raven is not configured (logging is disabled). Please see the documentation for more information.
In [3]: client.captureMessage('hello') # it's a noop - no error, no capture.
It's important to note that you should pass None
(or nothing at all) as DSN
parameter and not empty string, otherwise it raises InvalidDsn: Unsupported Sentry DSN scheme
.
Also, if you don't like that Raven is not configured (logging is disabled)...
in your logs, you can mute it like so:
>>> import logging
>>> logging.getLogger('raven').setLevel(logging.WARNING)
Solution 2
We read here that we can just use an empty string DSN property.
You should not be setting DSN
to an empty string, but instead in your development settings configuration don't specify the DSN
setting in the first place:
RAVEN_CONFIG = {}

We are running a Django server and using Sentry to capture exceptions. When we configure Sentry we add
RAVEN_CONFIG
our differentsettings.py
files:INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'raven.contrib.django.raven_compat' ) RAVEN_CONFIG = { 'dsn': 'https://*****@app.getsentry.com/PORT_NUMBER', }
We read here that we can just use an empty string
DSN
property. Though when we runpython manage.py raven test
as depicted here we get:raven.exceptions.InvalidDsn: Unsupported Sentry DSN scheme: ()
The best solution would be that we could always use a Raven client and the settings file would define whether exceptions are sent or not.
Another requirement is that we would like to use the
Client
module and capture exceptions. For this we have to set someDSN
value:from raven import Client client = Client('https://<key>:<secret>@app.getsentry.com/<project>')
So not setting a
DSN
value isn't possible -
Agam Rafaeli about 8 yearsEditted the question to explain why this isn't possible. TL;DR - we would like to use the python raven Client module which requires a DSN on initialization

Steve about 5 yearsI thought the "and still work" part of the question meant sending the Sentry info somewhere (like the logs, for example). Is there a way to get it to log what it would have sent, instead of the entirely unhelpful "not configured" message (which it could log once at startup)?

TheRealFakeNews over 4 yearsJust FYI: your config might not allow white space, so just do
RAVEN_CONFIG={}
