Tornado

Tornado is an async web framework for Python.

Setup

The first thing you’ll need to do is to initialize sentry client under your application

import tornado.web
from raven.contrib.tornado import AsyncSentryClient

class MainHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        self.write("Hello, world")

application = tornado.web.Application([
    (r"/", MainHandler),
])
application.sentry_client = AsyncSentryClient(
    '___DSN___'
)

Usage

Once the sentry client is attached to the application, request handlers can automatically capture uncaught exceptions by inheriting the SentryMixin class.

import tornado.web
from raven.contrib.tornado import SentryMixin

class UncaughtExceptionExampleHandler(
        SentryMixin, tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        1/0

You can also send events manually using the shortcuts defined in SentryMixin. The shortcuts can be used for both asynchronous and synchronous usage.

Asynchronous

import tornado.web
import tornado.gen
from raven.contrib.tornado import SentryMixin

class AsyncMessageHandler(SentryMixin, tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    @tornado.web.asynchronous
    @tornado.gen.engine
    def get(self):
        self.write("You requested the main page")
        yield tornado.gen.Task(
            self.captureMessage, "Request for main page served"
        )
        self.finish()

class AsyncExceptionHandler(SentryMixin, tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    @tornado.web.asynchronous
    @tornado.gen.engine
    def get(self):
        try:
            raise ValueError()
        except Exception as e:
            response = yield tornado.gen.Task(
                self.captureException, exc_info=True
            )
        self.finish()

Tip

The value returned by the yield is a HTTPResponse object.

To dynamically use Python if configuration DSN available, change your base handler on fly and make sure all concrete handlers are imported after this.

from raven.contrib.tornado import SentryMixin
app.sentry_client = AsyncSentryClient(dsn)
BaseHandler.__bases__ = (SentryMixin, ) + BaseHandler.__bases__

Synchronous

import tornado.web
from raven.contrib.tornado import SentryMixin

class AsyncExampleHandler(SentryMixin, tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        self.write("You requested the main page")
        self.captureMessage("Request for main page served")
