Add an easy cron integration

[vasilvestre]

Problem Statement

Everywhere you use the CRON feature, you have to specify which environment and release you use. The initialized sentry SDK is not reused

Solution Brainstorm

Add the capacity to reuse configured SDK maybe with an helper ?

We made the process of reporting check-ins simpler in https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-php/releases/tag/3.21.0

See #719 for more context on this.

It doesn't help for the environment thing, in my case it always log in production when I'm in environment "dev"

How does your config/packages/sentry.yaml file look like?

How does your config/packages/sentry.yaml file look like?

parameters:
    env(SENTRY_ENV): undefined
    env(SENTRY_DSN):
    env(VERSION): undefined
    env(SENTRY_TRACE_SAMPLE_RATE): '0.1'

sentry:
    dsn: '%env(SENTRY_DSN)%'
    options:
        environment: '%env(SENTRY_ENV)%'
        traces_sample_rate: '%env(float:SENTRY_TRACE_SAMPLE_RATE)%'
        integrations:
            - 'Sentry\Integration\IgnoreErrorsIntegration'

The SENTRY_ENV is set to "prod", "staging", "preprod" or "dev" depending of the environment. When I ran my test with SENTRY_ENV set to "dev", production was the environment reported in Sentry cron.

I'm unable to reproduce the issue you're seeing.

\Sentry\captureCheckIn(
    slug: 'my-cron-job',
    status: \Sentry\CheckInStatus::ok(),
);

Maybe check the version you have installed for our underlying PHP SDK (sentry/sentry).
To be able to use captureCheckIn(), you'll need 3.21.0.

You can update the underlying SDK by running composer update sentry/sentry-symfony -W.

Alright, I had to update my sdk and use the captureCheckIn and it's working great now.

Thank you :)

I still hope that there will be a trait or some kind of helper for Commands. Here's my code for future reference :

    private function initSentry(): ?string
    {
        return captureCheckIn(
            slug: 'cancel-unpaid-order',
            status: CheckInStatus::inProgress()
        );
    }

    private function notifySentryForSuccess(string $checkInId): void
    {
        captureCheckIn(
            slug: 'cancel-unpaid-order',
            status: CheckInStatus::ok(),
            checkInId: $checkInId,
        );
    }

    private function notifySentryForError(string $checkInId): void
    {
        captureCheckIn(
            slug: 'cancel-unpaid-order',
            status: CheckInStatus::error(),
            checkInId: $checkInId,
        );
    }
    ```
