Dex

A Ruby gem to log exceptions with sqlite3.

Requirements/Installation

Required:

• Ruby 1.9.3

Install:

sudo apt-get install sqlite3
gem install Dex

Usage

require "Dex"

Dex.db "my_log.db"

begin
  raise
rescue Object => e
  Dex.insert $!
  raise e
end

You can also create your own fields:

Dex.insert $!, :HTTP_USER_AGENT=> the_agent

You can also override default fields like :status or :created_at:

Dex.insert $?, :created_at=>Time.now, :status=>1

Are you importing errors from log files? You can treat a Hash as an exception:

Dex.insert :exception=>"Nginx Error", :message=>"Upstream closed", :backtrace=>[]

Run Tests

git clone git@github.com:da99/Dex.git
cd Dex
bundle update
bundle exec bacon spec/libs/main.rb
