The default traceback sent by email when an error occurs, usually gives too little information comparing it to the error page in the DEBUG mode. This snippet guerilla-patches error handling and sends by email the same information as you would see in DEBUG mode. To set it up, add the snippet to any `models.py` of an installed app. (I wonder why this hasn't been implemented in the core)
Often its useful to get error information for ajax/javascript errors happening on various clients. This can go to something like this: # error_sink def error_sink(request): # post request, with event name in "event", and event data in "data" context = request.REQUEST.get("context", "") context = cgi.parse_qs(context) context["data"] = cgi.parse_qs(context.get("data", [""])[0]) context["user"] = request.vuser context["referrer"] = request.META.get('HTTP_REFERER', "referrer not set") context = pformat(context) send_mail( "ajax error", context, "[email protected]", ["[email protected]",], fail_silently=True ) return JSONResponse({"status": "ok" }) # }}}
