Exa Debug Bundle

Overview

Collect all necessary diagnostic information for Exa support tickets.

Prerequisites

• Exa SDK installed
• Access to application logs
• Permission to collect environment info

Instructions

Step 1: Create Debug Bundle Script

#!/bin/bash
# exa-debug-bundle.sh

BUNDLE_DIR="exa-debug-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
mkdir -p "$BUNDLE_DIR"

echo "=== Exa Debug Bundle ===" > "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"
echo "Generated: $(date)" >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

Step 2: Collect Environment Info

# Environment info
echo "--- Environment ---" >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"
node --version >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt" 2>&1
npm --version >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt" 2>&1
echo "EXA_API_KEY: ${EXA_API_KEY:+[SET]}" >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

Step 3: Gather SDK and Logs

# SDK version
npm list @exa/sdk 2>/dev/null >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

# Recent logs (redacted)
grep -i "exa" ~/.npm/_logs/*.log 2>/dev/null | tail -50 >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/logs.txt"

# Configuration (redacted - secrets masked)
echo "--- Config (redacted) ---" >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"
cat .env 2>/dev/null | sed 's/=.*/=***REDACTED***/' >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/config-redacted.txt"

# Network connectivity test
echo "--- Network Test ---" >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"
echo -n "API Health: " >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"
curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" https://api.exa.com/health >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"
echo "" >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

Step 4: Package Bundle

tar -czf "$BUNDLE_DIR.tar.gz" "$BUNDLE_DIR"
echo "Bundle created: $BUNDLE_DIR.tar.gz"

Output

• exa-debug-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.tar.gz archive containing:
  • summary.txt - Environment and SDK info
  • logs.txt - Recent redacted logs
  • config-redacted.txt - Configuration (secrets removed)
