Setup Airbrake for your Python application #1

Installation

Using pip

pip install -U airbrake

Setup

The easiest way to get set up is with a few environment variables (You can find your project ID and API KEY with your project's settings):

export AIRBRAKE_API_KEY=<Your project API KEY>
export AIRBRAKE_PROJECT_ID=<Your project ID>
export AIRBRAKE_ENVIRONMENT=production

and you're done!

Otherwise, you can instantiate your AirbrakeHandler by passing these values as arguments to the getLogger() helper:

import airbrake


logger = airbrake.getLogger(api_key="<Your project API KEY>", project_id=<Your project ID>)


try:
    1/0
except Exception:
    logger.exception("Bad math.")
