Report errors in your Plug stack or whatever to [Bugsnag](https://bugsnag.com),
because that's a super great place to send your errors.

## Installation/Usage

Just throw it in your deps in your `mix.exs`:

```elixir
defp deps do
[
{:plugsnag, "~> 1.7.0"}
]
end
```

Then you'll need to configure it with your API key as
per [the bugsnag-elixir docs](https://github.com/jarednorman/bugsnag-elixir).

To use the plug, `use` it in your router. For example in an Phoenix app:

```elixir
defmodule YourApp.Router do
use Phoenix.Router
use Plugsnag

# ...
end
```

If you want to define your own `handle_errors` functions using [Plug.ErrorHandler](https://hexdocs.pm/plug/Plug.ErrorHandler.html), then you can call `Plugsnag.handle_errors/{2,3}` directly.

```elixir
defmodule YourApp.Router do
use Phoenix.Router
use Plug.ErrorHandler
# ...
defp handle_errors(conn, assigns) do
Plugsnag.handle_errors(conn, assigns)
# do your own handling
end
end
```

### Filtering Parameters and Headers

By default, the `BasicErrorReportBuilder` will filter out password parameters from error reports sent to Bugsnag. You can customize this list inside your configuration:

```elixir
config :plugsnag, filter: [params: ~w(password password_confirmation super_sekrit), headers: []]

```

By default, query strings are not filtered and may still leak sensitive information stored there
(which shouldn't be, anyway). To filter the query string in the generated report, set the
`:filter_query_string` config option to true:

```elixir
config :plugsnag, filter_query_string: true

```

## Customizing error reporting

You can also customize how an error is sent to bugsnag-elixir by passing your
own custom ErrorReportBuilder with the `:error_report_builder` option.

```elixir
defmodule YourApp.Router do
use Phoenix.Router
use Plugsnag, error_report_builder: YourApp.ErrorReportBuilder

# ...
end
```

```elixir
defmodule YourApp.ErrorReportBuilder do
@behaviour Plugsnag.ErrorReportBuilder

def build_error_report(error_report, conn) do
error_report
|> Plugsnag.BasicErrorReportBuilder.build_error_report(conn)
|> put_user_info(conn)
end

defp put_user_info(error_report, conn) do
current_user = conn.assigns[:current_user]

user_info = %{
id: current_user.id
}

%{error_report | user: user_info}
end
end
```
