Ionic 2 (Angular2) and raven-js (undefined is not an object (evaluating 'raven_js_1.default.config'))

[galuszkak]

Hello, thanks for hard work on Sentry :).

Problem that I encounter is maybe related to our build configuration. We are using Ionic 2 which uses Browserify to build app.

import Raven from 'raven-js';

Raven.config('https://[email protected]/86010').install();

This code to transpiles to:

var raven_js_1 = require('raven-js');
raven_js_1.default.config('https://[email protected]/86010').install();

This produces error:

TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'raven_js_1.default.config')
(anonymous function) — app.ts:16
s — _prelude.js:1
e — _prelude.js:1
global code — _prelude.js:1

Browser is Safari/UIWebView (I believe this is used by Apache Cordova on iOS). For now because of that we can't use Sentry on our app.

Thanks for any help.

Hey @galuszkak – Raven.js uses Browserify itself to build it's distributables (e.g. CDN builds), so I'm guessing there's something happening here besides "doesn't work with Browserify".

Just for help this is minimal not working example:

Hey @galuszkak did you tried to update your ionic2 to RC1? Can't get raven-js to work with my ionic2 app, angular2 documentation is useless as it seems that ravenjs is not working with aot :(
