Bottle

Learn about using Sentry with Bottle.

The Bottle integration adds support for the Bottle Web Framework. Currently it works well with the stable version of Bottle (0.12). However the integration with the development version (0.13) doesn't work properly.

Install sentry-sdk from PyPI with the bottle extra:

Copied
pip install --upgrade 'sentry-sdk[bottle]'

If you have the bottle package in your dependencies, the Bottle integration will be enabled automatically when you initialize the Sentry SDK.

Copied
from bottle import Bottle
import sentry_sdk

sentry_sdk.init(
    dsn="https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
    enable_tracing=True
)

app = Bottle()

Copied
from bottle import Bottle, run

sentry_sdk.init(...)  # same as above

app = Bottle()

@app.route('/')
def hello():
    1/0
    return "Hello World!"

run(app, host='localhost', port=8000)

When you point your browser to http://localhost:8000/ a transaction in the Performance section of sentry.io will be created. Additionally, an error event will be sent to sentry.io and will be connected to the transaction.

It takes a couple of moments for the data to appear in sentry.io.

  • The Sentry Python SDK will install the Bottle integration for all of your apps. The integration hooks into base Bottle class.

  • All exceptions leading to an Internal Server Error are reported.

  • Request data is attached to all events: HTTP method, URL, headers, form data, JSON payloads. Sentry excludes raw bodies and multipart file uploads. Sentry also excludes personally identifiable information (such as user ids, usernames, cookies, authorization headers, IP addresses) unless you set send_default_pii to True.

  • Each request has a separate scope. Changes to the scope within a view, for example setting a tag, will only apply to events sent as part of the request being handled.

If you add BottleIntegration explicitly to your sentry_sdk.init() call you can set options for BottleIntegration to change its behavior:

Copied
import sentry_sdk
from sentry_sdk.integrations.bottle import BottleIntegration

sentry_sdk.init(
    dsn="https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
    enable_tracing=True,
    integrations=[
        BottleIntegration(
            transaction_style="endpoint",
        ),
    ],
)

You can pass the following keyword arguments to BottleIntegration():

  • transaction_style:

    Copied
    @app.route("/myurl/<foo>")
    def myendpoint():
        return "ok"
    

    In the above code, you would set the transaction to:

    • /myurl/<foo> if you set transaction_style="url".
    • myendpoint if you set transaction_style="endpoint"

    The default is "endpoint".

  • Bottle: 0.12.13+
  • Python: 3.6+

The versions above apply for Sentry Python SDK version 2.0+, which drops support for some legacy Python and framework versions. If you're looking to use Sentry with older Python or framework versions, consider using an SDK version from the 1.x major line of releases.
