Sourcemod Sentry Error Logger

Log sourcemod errors and sourcepawn exceptions to a sentry.io instance.

Originaly made for use on Creators.TF servers, but can be used on any TF2 server running sourcemod.

Setup

On your Sentry.io instance, set up a project and get the SDK DSN url. Use this as the value for ce_sentry_dsn_url.

Put either the .dll or .so extension in your servers sourcemod/extensions folder. Create a .autoload file if you want the plugin to load on server start (e.g. ctferrorlogger.autoload).

Requirements

A TF2 server running an up to date version of sourcemod.

Linux servers require curl4 (x32 bit version) to be installed.

If you see an error message such as "libcurl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when trying to load the extension, you are missing curl4.

How to install curl 4 via apt for Debian/Ubuntu based distros:

• Allow installing x32 bit versions of packages: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

• Update apt sources: sudo apt-get update

• Install i368(x32) version of curl 4: sudo apt-get install libcurl4:i386

Convars

• ce_sentry_dsn_url Sentry DSN url, required. Extension will not setup without this.

• ce_logreaderwaittime How many seconds between re checking for new log errors.

• ce_server_index Server number (not required)

• ce_environment Server environment (not required)

• ce_region Server region (not required)

• ce_type Server type (not required)

Known Issues

• The extension may not properly work if it is unloaded then reloaded, but unloading should be fine.

• The extension gets sourcemod errors (not exceptions) via reading the latest error log file. If there is a better way to achieve this, please let me know! This process is done on a timer as to not waste resources.

If you experience a new bug/crash, please create an issue here.

Building

Ensure you have the required dependencies for building Sourcemod.

Currently, the sourcemod and sdk dependency locations are assumed to be where they exist for the sample extensions, so clone this repo into /public folder. Metamod, Sourcemod and hl2sdk-tf2 are needed.

Linux:

Install/update g++, gcc, g++-multilib, gcc-multilib and libcurl4-openssl-dev:i386 via your package manager.

Important

If libcurl4-openssl-dev:i386 cannot be installed via your package manager (due to an error) the x64 version may need to be removed.

Use the provided make file via make. Requires GCC 8 and above for full STD 17 support (w filesystem). (Ambuild cannot be used due to linker errors).

Windows:

Open and build using the solution file (ctferrorloggerext.sln). Ambuild can also be used for windows.
