5.8.0

Features

• Allow tags to be passed via the context hash when reporting errors using ActiveSupport::ErrorReporter and Sentry::Rails::ErrorSubscriber in sentry-rails #1932

• Pass a cached: true tag for SQL query spans that utilized the ActiveRecord QueryCache when using ActiveRecordSubscriber in sentry-rails #1968

• Add Sentry.add_global_event_processor API #1976

  Users can now configure global event processors without configuring scope as well.

  Sentry.add_global_event_processor do |event, hint|
    event.tags = { foo: 42 }
    event
  end

• Add global event processor in OpenTelemetry SpanProcessor to link errors with transactions #1983

• Fix some inconsistencies in setting name/op/status in OpenTelemetry SpanProcessor #1987

• Add config.before_send_transaction hook #1989

  Users can now configure a before_send_transaction callback that runs similar to before_send but for transaction events.

  config.before_send_transaction = lambda do |event, hint|
    # skip unimportant transactions or strip sensitive data
    if event.transaction == "/healthcheck/route"
      nil
    else
      event
    end
  end

• Support Sentry::Transaction#set_measurement #1838

  Usage:

  transaction = Sentry.get_current_scope.get_transaction
  transaction.set_measurement("metrics.foo", 0.5, "millisecond")
