Rails standardized error reporting interface

A very common pattern when dealing with exceptions is to report them asynchronously to the developer and continue exception with some fallback. […] I believe there’s an opportunity for Rails to provide a generic interface to report errors, with an adapter API to allow using the service of your choice.

Most Rails apps include a layer of indirection like the below, so this is a great idea.

begin
  do_something
rescue SomethingIsBroken => error
  MyErrorReportingService.notify(error)
  some_fallback_code_or_value
end
