Integrating with ASP.NET MVC
Creating an MVC error handler for the .NET SDK
Working Sample
For the working sample, please look here.
Recommended Rollbar Modules/Packages
Whenever you are trying to integrate Rollbar.NET SDK into an existing ASP.NET MVC application, the most optimal way is to do it via our Rollbar.Net.AspNet.Mvc module. It will also bring in the required dependencies that are Rollbar core module/package and Rollbar.Net.AspNet module/package:
dotnet add package Rollbar.Net.AspNet.Mvc
Modify Global.asax.cs
Global.asax.cs
//...
using Rollbar;
using Rollbar.Net.AspNet;
//..
public class MvcApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
protected void Application_Start()
{
ConfigureRollbarInfrastructure();
RollbarLocator.RollbarInstance.Info("Rollbar.NET is ready to roll!");
AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
}
protected void Application_Error()
{
var exception = Server.GetLastError();
var httpContext = HttpContext.Current;
IRollbarPackage packagingStrategy =
new ExceptionPackage(
exception,
"EXCEPTION intercepted by MvcApplication.Application_Error()"
);
if (httpContext != null)
{
packagingStrategy =
new HttpContextPackageDecorator(packagingStrategy, httpContext);
}
RollbarLocator.RollbarInstance.Critical(packagingStrategy);
}
/// <summary>
/// Configures the Rollbar infrastructure.
/// </summary>
private static void ConfigureRollbarInfrastructure()
{
// minimally required Rollbar configuration:
RollbarInfrastructureConfig rollbarInfrastructureConfig =
new RollbarInfrastructureConfig(
RollbarSamplesSettings.AccessToken,
RollbarSamplesSettings.Environment
);
// optionally, add data scrubbing options:
RollbarDataSecurityOptions dataSecurityOptions =
new RollbarDataSecurityOptions();
dataSecurityOptions.ScrubFields = new string[]
{
"access_token", // normally, you do not want scrub this specific field (it is operationally critical), but it just proves safety net built into the notifier...
"username",
};
rollbarInfrastructureConfig
.RollbarLoggerConfig
.RollbarDataSecurityOptions
.Reconfigure(dataSecurityOptions);
// initialize Rollbar infrastructure:
RollbarInfrastructure.Instance.Init(rollbarInfrastructureConfig);
// optionally, if you would like to monitor all Rollbar instances' internal events within your application:
RollbarInfrastructure.Instance.QueueController.InternalEvent +=
OnRollbarInternalEvent;
// optionally, if you would like to monitor this Rollbar instance's internal events within your application:
RollbarLocator.RollbarInstance.InternalEvent +=
OnRollbarInternalEvent;
// basic test:
RollbarLocator
.RollbarInstance
.Info($"{typeof(MvcApplication).Namespace}: Rollbar is up and running!");
}
/// <summary>
/// Called when rollbar internal event is detected.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="sender">The sender.</param>
/// <param name="e">The <see cref="RollbarEventArgs"/> instance containing the event data.</param>
private static void OnRollbarInternalEvent(object sender, RollbarEventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.TraceAsString());
RollbarApiErrorEventArgs apiErrorEvent = e as RollbarApiErrorEventArgs;
if (apiErrorEvent != null)
{
//TODO: handle/report Rollbar API communication error event...
return;
}
CommunicationEventArgs commEvent = e as CommunicationEventArgs;
if (commEvent != null)
{
//TODO: handle/report Rollbar API communication event...
return;
}
CommunicationErrorEventArgs commErrorEvent = e as CommunicationErrorEventArgs;
if (commErrorEvent != null)
{
//TODO: handle/report basic communication error while attempting to reach Rollbar API service...
return;
}
InternalErrorEventArgs internalErrorEvent = e as InternalErrorEventArgs;
if (internalErrorEvent != null)
{
//TODO: handle/report basic internal error while using the Rollbar Notifier...
return;
}
}
}
Modify App_Start\FilterConfig.cs
App_Start\FilterConfig.cs
//...
using Rollbar.Net.AspNet.Mvc;
//...
public class FilterConfig
{
public static void RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilterCollection filters)
{
filters.Add(new HandleErrorAttribute());
filters.Add(new RollbarExceptionFilter(
"SOURCE: Sample.AspNet.MvcApp's RollbarExceptionFilter"
));
}
}
