Reporting errors

Honeybadger reports uncaught errors automatically. In all other cases, use Honeybadger.notify/1,2 to send errors to Honeybadger.

Use the Honeybadger.notify/2 function to send exception information to the Exceptions API. The first parameter is the exception and the second parameter is the context/metadata/fingerprint.

try do
  File.read! "this_file_really_should_exist_dang_it.txt"
rescue
  exception ->
    Honeybadger.notify(exception, metadata: %{}, stacktrace: __STACKTRACE__, fingerprint: "")
end

There is also a Honeybadger.notify/1 which doesn’t require the second parameter.

Honeybadger.notify("Send this to Honeybadger")
