A dependency-free Ruby client for reporting exceptions to an Errbit server. Plain Ruby only — no Rails, no Rack required. Targets Ruby >= 4.0 and has zero runtime dependencies (uses only net/http, json, and uri from the standard library).

This gem talks to a new, purpose-built error-ingestion API — it is not compatible with the Airbrake or Sentry APIs. The API is specified in openapi/errbit-api.yaml.

Add to your Gemfile:

gem "errbit-ruby", require: "errbit"

or install directly:

gem install errbit-ruby

Configure once, near your application's boot:

require "errbit"

Errbit.configure do |config|
  config.host       = "https://errbit.example.com"
  config.project_id = ENV.fetch("ERRBIT_PROJECT_ID")
  config.api_key    = ENV.fetch("ERRBIT_API_KEY")

  # Optional: exception classes, class-name strings, or regexps to skip.
  config.ignore = [ArgumentError, /expected, harmless/i]
end

Then report exceptions where you rescue them:

begin
  risky_operation
rescue => e
  Errbit.notify(e)
  raise
end

Errbit.notify returns an Errbit::Result:

result = Errbit.notify(e)

result.success? # => true/false
result.ignored?  # => true if the exception matched config.ignore
result.failure?  # => true on a 4xx/5xx response from the server
result.id         # => server-assigned id, on success
result.error      # => server error message, on failure

A report is delivered synchronously over HTTP(S) on the calling thread. A network failure (timeout, connection refused, etc.) raises Errbit::DeliveryError; a well-formed error response from the server (400/401/404) does not raise — check result.failure? instead.

bundle install
bundle exec rspec

bin/console starts an IRB session with the gem pre-configured against a placeholder host for manual experimentation.

See openapi/errbit-api.yaml for the full OpenAPI 3.1 definition of the single endpoint this gem calls:

POST /api/v1/projects/{project_id}/errors/{api_key}
