The problem with this approach is that the point of reference is the captureException not the error itself (in Sentry, using the source map).
@phaistonian yeah I agree it's actually a rather big downside of this kind of approach. Better than nothing and definitely better than blocking the page load waiting for the sync script, at least in my case.
Do you have any ideas on how to report the error better, with it's true origin?
Great gist, thanks for sharing.
Keep in mind that Promises can reject with a reason of any type (not just another Reason or an Error object).
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/PromiseRejectionEvent/reason
Unless you're sure that all your Promises rejecting with objects, it might make sense to do something like this:
var reason = error.reason;
if (reason) reason = reason.reason || reason.message || reason;
queue.push([
reason,
...
Correct me if I am wrong, but for recents versions of SDK you can use it like this:
<script src="https://browser.sentry-cdn.com/5.6.1/bundle.min.js" integrity="sha384-pGTFmbQfua2KiaV2+ZLlfowPdd5VMT2xU4zCBcuJr7TVQozMO+I1FmPuVHY3u8KB" crossorigin="anonymous" async id="sentry-sdk"></script>
<script>
document.getElementById('sentry-sdk').addEventListener('load', function () {
Sentry.init({ dsn: 'https://<key>@sentry.io/<project>' });
}, false);
</script>

It compiles in
advanced modebut has issues so I stuck with thesimple modesince the byte size difference was insignificant.
