Introduction to Sentry CLI

Sentry CLI is a powerful tool that allows you to interact with Sentry’s API directly from the command line. It is essential for developers looking to manage releases, configure Sentry projects, and streamline their debugging process.

Key Features and APIs

1. Authenticating with Sentry

Before using other Sentry CLI commands, you need to authenticate. Use the following command to authenticate:

  sentry-cli login

2. Creating a New Release

Creating a new release in Sentry is simple. Here’s how you do it:

  sentry-cli releases new -p your-project your-version

3. Associating Commits with a Release

To link commits with your release, you can use:

  sentry-cli releases set-commits --auto your-version

4. Finalizing a Release

Once you’re ready to finalize and deploy your release, run:

  sentry-cli releases finalize your-version

5. Deploying a Release

After finalizing your release, mark it as deployed:

  sentry-cli releases deploys your-version new -e production

6. Listing Issues in a Project

To list recent issues for your project:

  sentry-cli issues list -p your-project

7. Creating User Feedback

Collect user feedback directly for a specific release:

  sentry-cli user-feedback create -r your-release
    -a "An example feedback" 
    --url "http://example.com"

App Example using Sentry CLI APIs

Here is a simple Node.js app example that integrates with Sentry API using the Sentry CLI:

  const { execSync } = require('child_process');

  // Authenticate with Sentry
  execSync('sentry-cli login', { stdio: 'inherit' });

  // Create a new release
  const version = '1.0.0';
  execSync(`sentry-cli releases new -p my-project ${version}`, { stdio: 'inherit' });

  // Associate commits with the release
  execSync(`sentry-cli releases set-commits --auto ${version}`, { stdio: 'inherit' });

  // Finalize the release
  execSync(`sentry-cli releases finalize ${version}`, { stdio: 'inherit' });

  // Deploy the release
  execSync(`sentry-cli releases deploys ${version} new -e production`, { stdio: 'inherit' });

  console.log('Release process completed successfully.');

This example covers the complete release lifecycle with the Sentry CLI.
