How do you debug a Sinatra app like a Rails app?
debugging, logging, ruby, ruby-on-rails, sinatra
Solution
You could try adding a before filter that prints out the parameters
before do
puts '[Params]'
p params
end
Problem
In my main Sinatra controller, I want to debug the params hash after it is POSTed from a form. I have added: ``` puts params.inspect ``` and ``` set :logging, :true ``` The `params.inspect` works if everything goes well. But if an error happens before the controller is executed I'm not getting any information about the error like I would in Rails by default. What's the best way to get useful debug info? This example did not work at all (the app wouldn't even start after I added this code): ``` configure do Log = Logger.new("sinatra.log") Log.level = Logger::INFO end ``` followed by: ``` Log.info "#{@users.inspect}" ```
