tauri-plugin-sentry

A Sentry plugin for Tauri v2.

It's perfectly reasonable to use Sentry's Rust and browser SDKs separately in a Tauri app. However, this plugin passes browser breadcrumbs and events through the Rust backend which has a number of advantages:

• Browser events are enriched with Rust, OS and device context
  • Events from both Rust and browser will have the same app and device context
• Breadcrumbs are merged from both the Rust and browser SDKs
  • See what was happening in the Rust backend and the browser frontend at the time of the event

Installation

sentry-rust-minidump is re-exported by sentry-tauri so you don't need to add it as dependencies.

Add sentry and tauri-plugin-sentry to dependencies in Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
sentry = "0.42"
tauri-plugin-sentry = "0.5"

Run one of these commands to add the capabilities:

• npm: npm run tauri add sentry
• yarn: yarn run tauri add sentry
• pnpm: pnpm tauri add sentry
• cargo: cargo tauri add sentry

however, make sure that you have sentry:default in your capabilities:

src-tauri/capabilities/*.json

{
  "$schema": "./../gen/schemas/windows-schema.json",
  "identifier": "main",
  "local": true,
  "windows": [
    "main"
  ],
  "permissions": [
    "sentry:default" // <- important
  ]
}

Usage

This example also shows usage of sentry_rust_minidump which allows you to capture minidumps for native crashes from a separate crash reporting process.

use sentry;
use tauri_plugin_sentry;

pub fn run() {
    let client = sentry::init((
        "__YOUR_DSN__",
        sentry::ClientOptions {
            release: sentry::release_name!(),
            auto_session_tracking: true,
            ..Default::default()
        },
    ));

    // Caution! Everything before here runs in both app and crash reporter processes
    #[cfg(not(target_os = "ios"))]
    let _guard = tauri_plugin_sentry::minidump::init(&client);
    // Everything after here runs in only the app process

    tauri::Builder::default()
        .plugin(tauri_plugin_sentry::init(&client))
        .run(tauri::generate_context!())
        .expect("error while running tauri app");
}

The Plugin:

• By default injects and initialises @sentry/browser in every web-view
• Includes custom transport and beforeBreadcrumb hook that passes events and breadcrumbs to the Rust SDK via the Tauri invoke API
• Tauri + serde + existing Sentry Rust types = Deserialisation mostly Just Works™️

Custom Sentry Browser Configuration

By default the plugin injects a pre-minified version of @sentry/browser. If you want to configure Sentry in the browser yourself, you can disable the injection and pass the default config to Sentry.init.

Disable automatic injection:

tauri::Builder::default()
    .plugin(tauri_plugin_sentry::init_with_no_injection(&client))
    .run(tauri::generate_context!())
    .expect("error while running tauri app");

import { defaultOptions } from "tauri-plugin-sentry-api";
import * as Sentry from "@sentry/browser";

Sentry.init({
  ...defaultOptions,
  /**
   * Your custom configuration here
   */
});
