Sentry Local Dev Loop
Overview
Configure Sentry for local development with environment-aware DSN routing, debug-mode verbosity, full-capture sample rates, beforeSend inspection, Sentry Spotlight for offline event viewing, and sentry-cli source map verification. All configuration uses environment variables so nothing leaks into commits.
Prerequisites
@sentry/node v8+ installed (TypeScript/Node) or sentry-sdk v2+ installed (Python)Separate Sentry project created for development (different DSN from production)
.env file with SENTRY_DSN_DEV and NODE_ENV=developmentNetwork access to *.ingest.sentry.io (or use Spotlight for fully offline work)
Instructions
Step 1 -- Environment-Aware Configuration
Create an initialization file that routes events to the correct Sentry project based on environment, enables debug logging in dev, and captures 100% of traces locally:
import * as Sentry from '@sentry/node' ;
const env = process.env .NODE_ENV || 'development' ;
const isDev = env !== 'production' ;
Sentry .init ({
dsn : isDev
? process.env .SENTRY_DSN_DEV
: process.env .SENTRY_DSN ,
environment : env,
release : isDev ? 'dev-local' : process.env .SENTRY_RELEASE ,
tracesSampleRate : isDev ? 1.0

log
`[Sentry Dev] Transaction: ${event.transaction} (${duration} ms)`
return
Set up environment files to keep DSNs out of source:
SENTRY_DSN_DEV=https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0
SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT=development
NODE_ENV=development
SENTRY_DSN=https://prodPublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0
SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT=production
SENTRY_RELEASE=v1.2.3
NODE_ENV=production
Add DSN safety to .gitignore:
.env
.env.development
.env.production
.env.local
Step 2 -- Local Verification and Performance Debugging Create a verification script that confirms the SDK works end-to-end and demonstrates Sentry.startSpan() for local performance profiling:
import * as Sentry from '@sentry/node' ;
async function verify (const client = Sentry .getClient ();
if (!client) {
console .error ('Sentry SDK not initialized — run with --import ./instrument.mjs' );
process.exit (1 );
}
console .log ('--- Sentry Dev Loop Verification ---\n' );
console .log ('1. Sending test message...' );
Sentry .captureMessage ('Dev loop verification — captureMessage' , 'info' );
console .log ('2. Sending test exception...' );
try {
throw new Error ('Dev loop verification — captureException' );
} catch (e) {
const eventId = Sentry .captureException (e);
console .log (` Event ID: ${eventId} ` );
}
console .log ('3. Testing startSpan for performance...' );
await Sentry .startSpan (
{ name : 'dev.verification.database' , op : 'db.query' },
async (span) => {
await new Promise ((resolve ) => setTimeout (resolve, 150 ));
await Sentry .startSpan (
{ name : 'dev.verification.serialize' , op : 'serialize' },
async () => {
await new Promise ((resolve ) => setTimeout (resolve, 50 ));
}
);
}
);
console .log ('4. Testing breadcrumbs...' );
Sentry .addBreadcrumb ({
category : 'dev' ,
message : 'Verification script started' ,
level : 'info' ,
});
Sentry .addBreadcrumb ({
category : 'dev' ,
message : 'All checks passed' ,
level : 'info' ,
});
Sentry .captureMessage ('Dev verification complete with breadcrumbs' , 'info' );
console .log ('5. Flushing events...' );
const flushed = await Sentry .flush (5000 );
console .log (flushed
? '\nAll events sent — check Sentry dashboard or Spotlight UI'
: '\nFlush timed out — check DSN and network'
);
}
verify ();
Use Sentry.startSpan() in your application code to profile specific operations during development:
app.get ('/api/search' , async (req, res) => {
const results = await Sentry .startSpan (
{ name : 'search.execute' , op : 'db.query' , attributes : { 'search.query' : req.query .q } },
async () => {
return await db.search (req.query .q );
}
);
const formatted = await Sentry .startSpan (
{ name : 'search.format' , op : 'serialize' },
async () => {
return results.map (formatResult);
}
);
res.json (formatted);
});
Step 3 -- Sentry Spotlight and Offline Development Sentry Spotlight runs a local sidecar that intercepts Sentry events and displays them in a browser UI at http://localhost:8969 (Spotlight's default port) — no network required:
npx @spotlightjs/spotlight
The spotlight: true option in Step 1's Sentry.init() routes events to the local sidecar. This gives you a full Sentry-style event viewer without sending anything to sentry.io.
For fully offline development or CI environments with no Sentry access:
Sentry .init ({
dsn : '' ,
debug : false ,
});
Test source maps locally before deploying with sentry-cli:
npm install -g @sentry/cli
sentry-cli info
sentry-cli sourcemaps upload \
--org your-org \
--project your-dev-project \
--release dev-local \
./dist
sentry-cli sourcemaps explain \
--org your-org \
--project your-dev-project \
--release dev-local
Add a git pre-push hook to prevent hardcoded DSNs from leaking into the repo:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
if grep -rn "ingest\.sentry\.io" --include="*.ts" --include="*.js" \
--exclude-dir=node_modules --exclude-dir=dist src/ lib/; then
echo "ERROR: Hardcoded Sentry DSN found in source. Use environment variables."
exit 1
fi
Output
Environment-aware Sentry.init() routing dev events to a separate Sentry project
Debug logging printing captured events and transaction durations to the console
Verification script confirming captureMessage, captureException, and startSpan work
Sentry Spotlight integration for browsing events locally without network
Source map upload and verification workflow with sentry-cli
Pre-push hook preventing hardcoded DSNs from entering version control
