In Sentry’s elixir SDK we have a rate limit option for logger handlers to prevent spam logs.
I am interested in knowing when the rate-limit kicks in so that I can tweak it.
AFAIK logs are skipped silently.
Any suggestions?
I am using logger handlers to report :error level logs to Sentry

Looking at this source:
https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-elixir/blob/68fbfb5707620913efdf1ac06735470f4a0d5a8f/lib/sentry/logger_handler.ex#L310-L311
There does not seem to be a way to configure a callback to get notified when rate limit is triggered. You could offer them a PR where configuration allows something like
rate_limit_callbackor just a sub-key inside theirrate_limitkey that could be calledcallbackorsend_message_toetc. (in case you don’t want a function / MFA but an actual process to send message to) and can then extend the linked code above to act on a rate limit being triggered.HarshBalyan
thanks, i’ll take a dig at it.
