Disable sentry for laravel on local environment

Question

Is there any way to disable sentry for laravel 5 on local environnement? I have removed the SENTRY_DSN entry from my .env file and it seems to work but I am not sure it's the right way. Should I add some check about env in report function? Or is there any better way? App\Exceptions\Handler looks like this:

public function report(Exception $e)
{
    if ($this->shouldReport($e)) {
        app('sentry')->captureException($e);
    }
    parent::report($e);
}

The suggested way to disable Sentry SDK's is by setting the SENTRY_DSN value to something falsey, so your intuition here is correct.

You can check if you are in production for both the report() and render() functions.

Here is an updated App\Exceptions\Handler file for example.

public function report(Exception $e)
{
    if (app()->environment('production') && $this->shouldReport($e)) {
        app('sentry')->captureException($e);
    }

    parent::report($e);
}

...

public function render($request, Exception $e)
{
    if ($e instanceof ModelNotFoundException) {
        $e = new NotFoundHttpException($e->getMessage(), $e);
    }

    if (app()->environment('production')) {
        return response()->view('errors.500', null, 500);
    }

    return parent::render($request, $e);
}

This way you still have whoops errors showing in local and a custom 500 error page for production.

As per the official documentation here You have to set SENTRY_LARAVEL_DSN=null in your .env file
