Local source maps for nodejs

[Loskir]

Sentry shows code snippets for errors. If the code is compiled from typescript and executed using node --enable-source-maps, Sentry will show Typescript snippets instead of Javascript.

However, it seems to be required to have the original .ts files present during execution, or else there will be no snippets.

Is it possible for Sentry to get these snippets from the source map files? It should have everything that's required for this.

Yes, totally: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/node/typescript/#sentry-sdk-and-source-maps-with-typescript

You need to upload all sourcemaps and configure releases as well.

Please read this sections as well

No, I mean without this stuff. If I have sources locally, I can get Frames with source code. Can I get the same using source maps? They contain the source code as well

[kamilogorek]

Ah, no, that is not possible. Sourcemap processing is done on the server-side, and we are not resolving them prior to sending events.
It is possible to write such integration, but we don't have it right now.

Thank you!

[kamilogorek]

Anytime. If that answers your question, please close the discussion :) Thanks!

No, it is not currently possible to extract source code from source maps locally without uploading them to Sentry:
