[Honeybadger](https://honeybadger.io/) is a platform for error monitoring and uptime tracking with zero-config alerts.

## Installing the Honeybadger Plugin

Honeybadger is distributed as a Makerkit plugin. Install it using the CLI:

```bash
npx @makerkit/cli@latest plugins add honeybadger
```

The Makerkit CLI will automatically wire up the plugin in your project, so you don't have to do anything manually. 

Please review the changes with `git diff`.

## Environment Variables

Set the monitoring provider and Honeybadger configuration:

```bash title="apps/web/.env.local"
# Enable Honeybadger as the monitoring provider
NEXT_PUBLIC_MONITORING_PROVIDER=honeybadger

# Honeybadger configuration
NEXT_PUBLIC_HONEYBADGER_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
```

Please add these environment variables to your hosting provider when you deploy your application to production.

## Scope of this plugin

This plugin is only responsible for capturing errors and exceptions in the browser and server. Uploading sourcemaps is not supported yet. Please use the [Honeybadger guide](https://docs.honeybadger.io/lib/javascript/integration/nextjs/) for more information on all the available options.
