Connect your Go project to GlitchTip

Install the sentry Go SDK:

go get github.com/getsentry/sentry-go

Initialize the SDK early in your application:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "time"
    "github.com/getsentry/sentry-go"
)

func main() {
    err := sentry.Init(sentry.ClientOptions{
        Dsn: "YOUR_DSN",
        TracesSampleRate: 0.01, // 1% of transactions
    })
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("sentry.Init: %s", err)
    }
    defer sentry.Flush(2 * time.Second)

    // Your application code here
}

Verify your setup:

sentry.CaptureMessage("Test GlitchTip error")

Tips

• Always call sentry.Flush() before your application exits to ensure events are sent.
• Set TracesSampleRate to a low value in production to save disk space.
• Use sentry.CaptureException() to manually report errors.
