Honeybadger is a powerful error-monitoring tool for Python applications. Integrating an error monitoring service like Honeybadger into your development workflow provides numerous benefits for effectively managing exceptions. From real-time notifications and error grouping to rich diagnostics and trend analysis, Honeybadger equips you with the tools you need to quickly identify, investigate, and resolve errors and ultimately enhance the overall quality and reliability of your applications. To demo this, let's now explore some features and examples of integrating Honeybadger into your Python code.

honeybadger.io - Exception, uptime, and cron monitoring. Free for small teams and open-source projects (12,000 errors/month).

It sounds like you want to implement an exception monitoring tool like Honeybadger (my company), Sentry, or similar. They will tell you when someone encounters an error with your app, where the error occurred, and what the state of the app was (parameters, etc.) at the time of the error.

You may wonder why this is a problem. In the case of this code, we're sending the user's username to a third-party service. While username isn't inherently sensitive data, it certainly has to potential to be and should be treated as such. It's better to use IDs that can't identify the user if the third party—in this case, honeybadger—is breached. You can see the full list of supported data types, sorted by category, on the docs.

For inspirations on what type of agents I should build, I turned to the Public APIs GitHub repository which has a curated lists of free APIs. I narrowed my search for an API that does not require sign-up or an API key and returns useful information. I ultimately decided to use the Free Currency Exchange Rates API, which seemed promising upon some basic testing.

Public-Apis Github Repo — A list of free public APIs.

Interesting thread at https://github.com/public-apis/public-apis/issues/3104

Use curl to access a free public API and get a random joke, cat fact, or whatever.

I remember the forking of https://github.com/public-apis/public-apis and the long git issue discussions. The company owning the repository stopped maintaining it but didn't give up control either. Over the years you've put in a lot of work in publicapis.dev and that is much appreciated.

Also, that isn't really a list of "contributors", but of "organisations with the most stars". Those are different things.

For example "public-apis"[1] didn't "contribute" anything as that's not a person, and looking at GitHub[2] there are a bunch of substantial contributors (the person who created the organisation/repo only has 12 commits by the way);
