# Sentry Plugin
The Sentry Plugin displays issues from [Sentry](https://sentry.io).

## Getting Started
1. Install the Sentry Plugin:
```bash
# packages/app
yarn add @backstage/plugin-sentry
```
2. Add plugin to the app:
```js
// packages/app/src/plugins.ts
export { plugin as Sentry } from '@backstage/plugin-sentry';
```
3. Add the `SentryIssuesWidget` to the EntityPage:
```jsx
// packages/app/src/components/catalog/EntityPage.tsx
import { SentryIssuesWidget } from '@backstage/plugin-sentry';
const OverviewContent = ({ entity }: { entity: Entity }) => (
// ...
// ...
);
```
> You can also import a `Router` if you want to have a dedicated sentry page:
>
> ```tsx
> // packages/app/src/components/catalog/EntityPage.tsx
>
> import { Router as SentryRouter } from '@backstage/plugin-sentry';
>
> const ServiceEntityPage = ({ entity }: { entity: Entity }) => (
>
> // ...
> path="/sentry"
> title="Sentry"
> element={}
> />
> // ...
>
> );
> ```
4. Add the proxy config:
```yaml
# app-config.yaml
proxy:
'/sentry/api':
target: https://sentry.io/api/
allowedMethods: ['GET']
headers:
Authorization:
# Content: 'Bearer '
$env: SENTRY_TOKEN
sentry:
organization:
```
5. Create a new internal integration with the permissions `Issues & Events: Read` (https://docs.sentry.io/product/integrations/integration-platform/) and provide it as `SENTRY_TOKEN` as env variable.
6. Add the `sentry.io/project-slug` annotation to your catalog-info.yaml file:
```yaml
apiVersion: backstage.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
name: backstage
description: |
Backstage is an open-source developer portal that puts the developer experience first.
annotations:
sentry.io/project-slug: YOUR_PROJECT_SLUG
spec:
type: library
owner: CNCF
lifecycle: experimental
```
### Demo Mode
The plugin provides a MockAPI that always returns dummy data instead of talking to the sentry backend.
You can add it by overriding the `sentryApiRef`:
```ts
// packages/app/src/apis.ts
import { createApiFactory } from '@backstage/core';
import { MockSentryApi, sentryApiRef } from '@backstage/plugin-sentry';
export const apis = [
// ...
createApiFactory(sentryApiRef, new MockSentryApi()),
];
```
