meteor-bug-tracker

Easy bug tracking for Meteor.

Specifications

• The BugTracker.add function detects the error type and adds it to the respective collection

  • If the Bug is a native Error, add it to "BTN<native>Errors", for native errors read here
  • If the Bug is a Meteor.Error, add it to "BTMeteorErrors"
  • If the Bug is a custom Error, add it to "BT<CustomName>Errors"
  • Each of the above types has a respective collections

• Instead of adding each instance of the same error again,

  • the stack will be stringified and hashed
  • if the hash already exists, push only the current timestamp and user

• The BugTacker keeps a reference to all BT-Collections

  • Collections can be obtained single by name or as list

• Custom types can be added, by providing a name and the constructor

• Document schemas (see aldeed:Collection2) need ot be attached manually

  • To do that get the collection by name and attach your schema to it

• Meteor methods and Publications need to be defined and added by yourself

• CreatedBy needs to be added from surrounding environment by yourself
