Simplified filename display in Sentry dashboard

[niksy]

Currently, stack trace filename is displayed like this, with filename absolute path display by default:

I wanted to simplify filename display to strip common directory from all filenames so I used RewriteFrames integration. Using root and prefix options always show "source not found" notification so I thought it’s related to source maps.
These are source files so there isn’t any source map to upload (as it can be seen from first screenshot).

I thought this could be achieved if I added abs_path field to frame inside iteratee callback:

{
  integrations: [
    new RewriteFrames({
      iteratee: (frame) => {
        frame["abs_path"] = frame.filename;
        frame.filename = frame.filename.replace(projectRoot, "");
        return frame;
      },
    }),
  ],
}

But this also shows "source not found" notification:

What I did achieve is I managed to strip project root from filename but absolute path is displayed in tooltip, but still no original source code:

Is it possible to achieve something like this without resorting to source map upload since there aren’t any source maps to upload?

I think PHP integration works something like this and it successfully shows tooltip, simplified filename path and original source code.

Hey @niksy - thanks for the feedback!

I would recommend against using RewriteFrames for this because we want to avoid mutating instrumentation data. Instead we should just update the UI to display the data differently.

Could you open a GH issue https://github.com/getsentry/sentry as a feature request? We can get someone on the issues team to help you. Thanks!
