error-tracking-ruby

What problem does it solve?

PostHog error tracking for Ruby provides a drop-in way to capture and report Ruby exceptions to PostHog, enabling faster debugging and centralized monitoring without rewriting existing error handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Autocapture of exceptions and optional manual captures with capture_exception to track errors across Rails, Ruby scripts, and background jobs.
• Minimal intrusion: add the PostHog client alongside existing error handling and avoid large rewrites.
• End-to-end monitoring: ensure stack traces are captured to provide actionable insights and facilitate issue tracking.

Quick Start

Install the posthog-ruby gem, configure the client with your API key and host, and use capture_exception in rescue blocks to report errors.
