Introduction

This is a simple Airbrake, (formerly Hoptoad) notifier for PHP. It's been used in a few production sites now with success. It's not quite as fully featured as the official Ruby notifier but it works well.

Thanks

Big thanks to Lou Kosak, Till Klampaeckel and Scott Woods who have contributed extensively to this project.

Limitations

This notifier does not contain two big features from the Ruby notifier. The two are error filtering and deploy tracking. Error filtering will be coming in a future release.

For deploy tracking, since I use Capistrano to deploy my PHP apps, I simply use the Ruby notifier to perform the deploy tracking. For this reason, unless someone wants to contribute patches, I don't see deploy tracking coming to the php notifier.

Requirements

To use the default pear client install Pear's HTTP_Request2:

pear install HTTP_Request2

To use the curl client, install the PHP curl extension. To install on Ubuntu if you are using PHP 5 you would run: sudo apt-get install php5-curl sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
