Error Tracking

Director can send errors to Sentry.

You can enable this feature by adding your SENTRY_DSN value in the DIRECTOR_SENTRY_DSN variable of the .env file :

DIRECTOR_SENTRY_DSN="https://xyz@sentry.example.com/0"

Let's imagine the following workflow :

# workflows.yml
---
demo.SENTRY_ALERT:
  tasks:
    - WORKING_TASK
    - ERROR_TASK

With the associated tasks :

# tasks/example.py
from director import task

@task(name="WORKING_TASK")
def working_task(*args, **kwargs):
    return {"hello": "world"}

@task(name="ERROR_TASK")
def error_task(*args, **kwargs):
    print(1/0)

When a Celery worker will execute this code, an issue will be created in Sentry with the ZeroDivisionError :

In order to group the issues by workflow's name or by project, Director associated some tags to the event :

Each event also contains additional data to better dig into the problem :
