Default error template prevents captureError

[roschaefer]

It took me quite some time to find out why no errors were sent to sentry. It's the default error template.

Minimal working example:

# app/routes/index.js
import Ember from 'ember';

export default Ember.Route.extend({
  model() {
    throw 'aaaaahhhrgh!';
  }
});

<!-- app/templates/error.hbs -->
<div class="ui center aligned container">
        <i class="massive meh icon"></i>
        <div class="ui huge header">Oops</div>
        <p>Hm, something went wrong</p>
        {{outline}}
</div>

And here is the workaround:

// app/routes/application.js
import Ember from 'ember';

export default Ember.Route.extend({

  raven: Ember.inject.service(),
...
  actions: {
    error(error){
      this.get('raven').captureException(error)
      return true; // Let the route above this handle the error.
    }
  }
});

See: https://guides.emberjs.com/v2.16.0/routing/loading-and-error-substates/

Can we have this documented? Or is there a way for ember-cli-sentry to hook into Ember's default error handling? Thoughts?

Same problem here. Using error templates seems to be quite normal.

How to get this working? With the proposed workaround my app hangs on the loading template and does not show the error template anymore. (I just did not get the error template because raven was not initialized properly)

yes, I think this should be documented. PRs are obviously welcome 😉

This should definitely be included in the addon, at least a note in the README to add this
