Reporting Errors

Honeybadger reports uncaught exceptions automatically. In all other cases, use $honeybadger->notify() and $honeybadger->customNotification() to send errors to Honeybadger.

Reporting Unhandled Exceptions

By default, honeybadger-php registers global error and exception handlers which automatically report all unhandled exceptions to Honeybadger. These handlers can be disabled via the following configuration options:

php

  

[
    'handlers' => [
        // Enable global exception handler
        'exception' => true,

        // Enable global error handler
        'error' => true,
    ]
]

Reporting Handled Exceptions

To catch an exception and notify Honeybadger without re-throwing:

php

  

try {
  throw new Exception('Whoops!');
} catch (Exception $e) {
  $honeybadger->notify($e);
}

You can call $honeybadger->notify() anywhere in your code where you have an Exception to report.

Including Request Data

You can optionally include a \Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request::class request as the second argument to $honeybadger->notify():

php

$honeybadger->notify($e, $app->request());

When the request is included, HTTP information such as params, headers, and session data will be sent to Honeybadger.

Sending Custom Notifications

To notify Honeybadger of other types of errors:

php

  

$honeybadger->customNotification([
    'title'   => 'Special Error',
    'message' => 'Special Error: a special error has occurred',
]);

Options

Option Name	Description
title	The title of the error (normally the class name).
message	The error message.
