How does the rails logger need to be setup to send emails for all errors and fatals?-CodePudding

I can't seem to find how to setup rails 6 in a way that the logger sends an e-mail for all errors and fatal errors; i found loads of topics on how to customize the log messages themselves (and how to log emails that the app sends), but is there a way to connect actionmailer to the logger?

Thanks!

I recommend using something like this gem https://github.com/smartinez87/exception_notification to log errors.

However, you could achieve what you're asking for with a custom logger

class MailerLogger < Logger
  def add(severity, message = nil, progname = nil)
    if severity == Logger::Severity::FATAL
      # Send email here
    end
    super(severity, message, progname)
  end
end

# config/application.rb or config/environments/production.rb

config.logger = MailerLogger.new(STDOUT)
