Possible to include multiple instances of Raven on the page?

I have a web service called app that uses raven-js. I’m developing a client-side library that, ideally, would log internal errors to its own Sentry project rather than app’s. But, it would ideally not include its own copy of raven-js, rather specify that Raven is an external dependency to be fulfilled by app.

However, raven-js’ configuration makes it seem global to uses of the library. Is it possible to instantiate the library multiple times with different DSNs?

please don’t remove it

We intentionally re-wrote the Raven library to work this way in late 2015 (it was previously all global), so I doubt it will change.

My remaining question is, do both instances need to call install()?

Yes.

Is it safe for them to both do so?

Take a look at the tests; they’re all written against instances.

Terrific, thanks!
