Development Server

You have the ability to only run a frontend development server that will proxy all API requests to Sentry's production servers. In order to do so, run the following command:

Copied
yarn dev-ui

The development server can be viewed at https://localhost:7999 where you can then login with your Sentry.io credentials. Note that SSO-logins will NOT work.

Troubleshooting

"Your connection is not private"

If you see an error similar to the below when accessing the development server:

your connection is not private example

You can either grant a temporary exception in your browser, or create and install a local certificate and use your OS to mark them as "trusted". The instructions below will show you how to create and install a local certificate.

We will be using mkcert to create and install a locally-trusted, development certificate. The following will install mkcert and then create and install the local certificates.

Copied
brew install mkcert
brew install nss # if you use Firefox
yarn mkcert-localhost

You can now run the dev server with yarn dev-ui and open https://localhost:7999. There should not see a warning about your connection not being private. You should also see a lock or similar icon in the address bar of your browser.

NOTE: For Firefox users that use the master password you will be prompted for it with this message: "Enter Password or Pin for "NSS Certificate DB":"

NOTE: Webpack outputs the IP from where the SPA is being served (e.g. https://192.168.0.200:7999/). Do not use it or you will still get the message above. The generated local certificates are only for localhost, 127.0.0.1 and dev.getsentry.net: Any of these values would work.
