-Active Support Instrumentation
-==============================
-
-Active Support is a part of core Rails that provides Ruby language extensions, utilities and other things. One of the things it includes is an instrumentation API that can be used inside an application to measure certain actions that occur within Ruby code, such as that inside a Rails application or the framework itself. It is not limited to Rails, however. It can be used independently in other Ruby scripts if it is so desired.
-
-In this guide, you will learn how to use the instrumentation API inside of Active Support to measure events inside of Rails and other Ruby code.
-
-After reading this guide, you will know:
-
-* What instrumentation can provide.
-* The hooks inside the Rails framework for instrumentation.
-* Adding a subscriber to a hook.
-* Building a custom instrumentation implementation.
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Introduction to instrumentation
--------------------------------
-
-The instrumentation API provided by Active Support allows developers to provide hooks which other developers may hook into. There are several of these within the Rails framework, as described below in (TODO: link to section detailing each hook point). With this API, developers can choose to be notified when certain events occur inside their application or another piece of Ruby code.
-
-For example, there is a hook provided within Active Record that is called every time Active Record uses an SQL query on a database. This hook could be **subscribed** to, and used to track the number of queries during a certain action. There's another hook around the processing of an action of a controller. This could be used, for instance, to track how long a specific action has taken.
-
-You are even able to create your own events inside your application which you can later subscribe to.
-
-Rails framework hooks
----------------------
-
-Within the Ruby on Rails framework, there are a number of hooks provided for common events. These are detailed below.

-
-Subscribing to an event
------------------------
-
-Subscribing to an event is easy. Use `ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe` with a block to
-listen to any notification.
-
-The block receives the following arguments:
-
-* The name of the event
-* Time when it started
-* Time when it finished
-* An unique ID for this event
-* The payload (described in previous sections)
-
-```ruby
-ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe "process_action.action_controller" do |name, started, finished, unique_id, data|
-  # your own custom stuff
-  Rails.logger.info "#{name} Received!"
-end
-```
-
-Defining all those block arguments each time can be tedious. You can easily create an `ActiveSupport::Notifications::Event`
-from block arguments like this:
-
-```ruby
-ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe "process_action.action_controller" do |*args|
-  event = ActiveSupport::Notifications::Event.new *args
-
-  event.name      # => "process_action.action_controller"
-  event.duration  # => 10 (in milliseconds)
-  event.payload   # => {:extra=>information}
-
-  Rails.logger.info "#{event} Received!"
-end
-```
-
-Most times you only care about the data itself. Here is a shortcut to just get the data.
-
-```ruby
-ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe "process_action.action_controller" do |*args|
-  data = args.extract_options!
-  data # { extra: :information }
-end
-```
-
-You may also subscribe to events matching a regular expression. This enables you to subscribe to
-multiple events at once. Here's you could subscribe to everything from `ActionController`.
-
-```ruby
-ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe /action_controller/ do |*args|
-  # inspect all ActionController events
-end
-```
-
-Creating custom events
-----------------------
-
-Adding your own events is easy as well. `ActiveSupport::Notifications` will take care of
-all the heavy lifting for you. Simply call `instrument` with a `name`, `payload` and a block.
-The notification will be sent after the block returns. `ActiveSupport` will generate the start and end times
-as well as the unique ID. All data passed into the `instrument` call will make it into the payload.
-
-Here's an example:
-
-```ruby
-ActiveSupport::Notifications.instrument "my.custom.event", this: :data do
-  # do your custom stuff here
-end
-```
-
-Now you can listen to this event with:
-
-```ruby
-ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe "my.custom.event" do |name, started, finished, unique_id, data|
-  puts data.inspect # {:this=>:data}
-end
-```
-
-You should follow Rails conventions when defining your own events. The format is: `event.library`.
-If you application is sending Tweets, you should create an event named `tweet.twitter`.
