Apollo Tracker

Apollo Tracker is a lightweight Flask middleware for tracking and reporting errors to Apollo, an internal error tracking system similar to Sentry.

Features

• 🛠 Automatic Error Tracking: Captures and reports all unhandled exceptions.
• 🚀 Flask Integration: Works seamlessly with Flask applications.
• 📡 Send Errors to Apollo: Forwards error logs to an Apollo backend.
• 🔍 Includes Request Metadata: Logs IP address, user agent, endpoint, and method.
• 📦 Simple Installation: Just pip install apollo-tracker.

Installation

You can install apollo-tracker using pip:

pip install apollo-tracker

Usage

1. Setup ApolloTracker in Your Flask App

To start tracking errors in your Flask app, follow these steps:

1. Import the ApolloTracker class:

   from apollo_tracker.tracker import ApolloTracker
   

2. Initialize the tracker with your service name:

   tracker = ApolloTracker(service_name="projet_uid")
   

3. Register the error handler:

   tracker.register_error_handler(app)
   

2. Example Flask App Setup

from flask import Flask
from apollo_tracker.tracker import ApolloTracker  # import the tracker class

app = Flask(__name__)

# Initialize ApolloTracker with your service name
tracker = ApolloTracker(service_name="my_project_id")

# Register the error handler to track errors globally
tracker.register_error_handler(app)

@app.route('/')
def home():
    # Simulate an error
    1 / 0  # This will raise a ZeroDivisionError

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(debug=True)

3. Error Handling

• The ApolloTracker class automatically captures unhandled exceptions in your Flask app.
• When an error occurs, it sends detailed information (like the error type, message, stack trace, request path, and user agent) to the Apollo server.
