Hi,
my understanding so far is that the ideology is to attempt to deliver a crash report to Sentry, but if that is not possible (e.g. the system where the raven client runs cannot temporarily connect to the Sentry server) - just move on.
When that is the case, raven will write a message to the local logger instead (I got this feedback from someone on the IRC channel, when asking about raven for Python) and subsequently not reattempt a delivery.
- Is there a way to adjust the behaviour of the client such that it retries to send the crash report until it is delivered?
- Are there any ideological constraints that make the creation of reliable transports unreasonable or unnecessary?
I look forward to your comments, as I am not yet sure I fully grasped the best practices of using Sentry.
