Raven-Go provides a Sentry client implementation for the Go programming language.

Getting started with Sentry is a three step process:

1. Sign up for an account
2. Install your SDK
3. Configure it

Raven-Go can be installed like any other Go library through go get:

Copied

go get github.com/getsentry/raven-go

To use raven-go, you’ll need to import the raven package, then initialize your DSN globally. If you specify the SENTRY_DSN environment variable, this will be done automatically for you. The release and environment can also be specified in the environment variables SENTRY_RELEASE and SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT respectively. More on this in Configuration section.

Copied

package main

import "github.com/getsentry/raven-go"

func init() {
    raven.SetDSN("___PUBLIC_DSN___")
}

For more detailed information about how to get the most out of raven-go there is additional documentation available that covers all the rest:
