A base library for Hoptoad error reporting.

Toadhopper can be used to report plain old Ruby exceptions, or to build a framework-specific gem such as toadhopper-sinatra.

begin
  raise "Kaboom!"
rescue  => e
  require 'toadhopper'
  Toadhopper("YOURAPIKEY").post!(e)
end

You can install it via rubygems:

gem install toadhopper

Deploy tracking

You can use Toadhopper to notify Hoptoad of deployments:

Toadhopper('YOURAPIKEY').deploy!

The method accepts options to set the environment, SCM revision, etc.

There is Capistrano support for deploy tracking. Simply require toadhopper/capistrano in your deploy config and set the variable hoptoad_api_key:

require 'toadhopper/capistrano'

set :hoptoad_api_key, 'YOURAPIKEY'

Development

Install Bundler 0.9.x, then:

% git clone git://github.com/toolmantim/toadhopper.git
% cd toadhopper
% bundle install
% bundle exec rake test

If you set a HOPTOAD_API_KEY environment variable it'll test actually posting to the Hoptoad API. For example:

% bundle exec rake test HOPTOAD_API_KEY=abc123

To generate the docs:

% bundle exec yardoc

To build the gem:

% bundle exec rake build
