Universal JavaScript library for integrating apps with the ⚡ Honeybadger Error Notifier.
❗Note: The NPM package has been moved to @honeybadger-io/js starting with v3.0.0. See the v2-stable branch for the honeybadger-js 2.x package. Upgrade instructions
For comprehensive documentation and support, check out our documentation site.
Conventional Commits are enforced with a git hook (husky + commitlint) in order to automate changelog generation. CHANGELOG.md is updated when a new version is released (npm run release) with shipjs.
- Fork it.
- Create a topic branch
git checkout -b my_branch
- Commit your changes
git commit -am "Boom"
- Push to your branch
git push origin my_branch
- Send a pull request
- Run
npm install
. - To run unit tests for both browser and server builds:
npm test
. Or separately:npm run test:browser
,npm run test:server
. - To run integration tests across all supported platforms, set up a BrowserStack
account and use
BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME=your_username BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY=your-access-key npm run test:integration
. - To test the TypeScript type definitions:
npm run tsd
.
This project is isomorphic, meaning it's a single library which contains both browser and server builds. It's written in TypeScript, and transpiled and bundled with Rollup. Our Rollup config generates three main files:
- The server build, which transpiles
src/server.ts
and its dependencies intodist/server/honeybadger.js
. - The browser build, which transpiles
src/browser.ts
and its dependencies intodist/browser/honeybadger.js
. - The minified browser build, which transpiles
src/browser.ts
and its dependencies intodist/browser/honeybadger.min.js
(+ source maps).
In addition, the TypeScript type declaration for each build is generated into its types/
directory (ie dist/browser/types/browser.d.ts
and dist/server/types/server.d.ts
).
However, since the package is isomorphic, TypeScript users will likely be writing import * as Honeybadger from '@honeybadger-io/js'
or import Honeybadger = require('@honeybadger-io/js')
in their IDE. Our package.json
has main
and browser
fields that determine which build they get, but there can only be a single type declaration file. So we use an extra file in the project root, honeybadger.d.ts
, that combines the types from both builds.
Releasing is done with two commands: npm version
and npm publish
. Both
commands should be used with care. The npm publish
command publishes to NPM
and to our js.honeybadger.io CDN (hosted on AWS via S3/CloudFront).
For the CDN release, make sure you have the following environment variable available in your shell:
export HONEYBADGER_JS_S3_BUCKET=honeybadger-js
export HONEYBADGER_DISTRIBUTION_ID=cloudfront-id
AWS credentials are read from ~/.aws/credentials, using the default profile.
To perform a full release:
-
With a clean working tree, use
npm version [new version]
to bump the version, commit the changes, tag the release, and push to GitHub. Seenpm help version
for documentation. -
To publish the release, use
npm publish
. Seenpm help publish
for documentation.
If the CDN release fails for some reason (bad AWS credentials, for instance),
re-run the release manually with npm run release-cdn
.
We use Ship.js to automate releasing. Our custom Ship.js config determines the next release version based on the unreleased section of our changelog (Keep a Changelog format).
Ship.js creates a PR once per week when unreleased changes are present. You can also trigger a release PR by saying "@shipjs prepare" in any issue or pull request comment on GitHub.
npm run release
- Calculates the next version and creates a PR viashipjs prepare
. This can run locally or in CInpx shipjs trigger
- Publish to NPM (usually happens in CI, but can also run locally)
- Our Ship.js config file
- Our Changelog file
- Ship.js on GitHub
- Ship.js docs
