Introduce a `SENTRY_CONFIG` parameter to extend and ultimately replace individual Sentry config parameters

[jeremystretch]

NetBox version

v4.4.1

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Introduce a new config parameter named SENTRY_CONFIG. This will define a dictionary of arguments to pass to sentry_sdk.init() when the application is initialized.

Eventually, this parameter is expected to replace the following existing parameters; however, backward compatibility will be retained for now.

• SENTRY_DSN
• SENTRY_SAMPLE_RATE
• SENTRY_SEND_DEFAULT_PII
• SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE

Example usage:

SENTRY_CONFIG = {
    "dsn": "https://examplePublicKey@o0.ingest.sentry.io/0",
    "send_default_pii": True,
    "before_send_transaction": strip_sensitive_data,
}

Use case

This approach enables NetBox administrators to pass additional Sentry initialization arguments for which a NetBox configuration parameter does not exist.
