Report rake (>=0.9) exceptions to NewRelic
NewRelic service is great for application monitoring and errors tracking. However it doesn't track rake exceptions by default. You can use AirBrake gem and service, but sometimes it's too much for you. Fortunately with a bit of ruby it's easy to do it yourself.
Create a small module to hook into rake library at lib/rake_notifier.rb
module RakeNotifier
def self.included(klass)
klass.class_eval do
alias_method :display_error_message_without_log, :display_error_message
alias_method :display_error_message, :display_error_message_with_log
end
end
def display_error_message_with_log(ex)
::NewRelic::Agent.notice_error(ex)
display_error_message_without_log(ex)
end
end
And then hook it up in the rails initialiser config/initializers/rake_notifier_hook.rb
if defined?(::Rake)
Rake.application.instance_eval do
class << self
include RakeNotifier
end
end
end
That's it, now you will see rake exceptions at your NewRelic Errors view.
