= Instrumental Agent

Instrument anything.

== Setup

Add the gem to your Gemfile.

  gem 'instrumental_agent'

Head over to instrumentalapp.com and setup an account, then 
initialize the agent.

  I = Instrumental::Agent.new('YOUR_API_KEY', :enabled => Rails.env.production?)

If you already use EventMachine elsewhere, or are hosted on heroku 
then you will need to disable the reactor loop startup like so:

  I = Instrumental::Agent.new('YOUR_API_KEY', :enabled => Rails.env.production?, :start_reactor => false)

Now you can begin to use instrumental to track your application

  I.gauge('load', 1.23)
  I.increment('signups')

Data without historical context sucks, so Instrumental lets you 
backfill data to. Letting you see deep into your past.

  User.find_each do |user|
    I.increment('signups', 1, user.created_at)
  end

Running under Rails? You can also give our experimental rack middleware 
a shot by initializing it with:

    Instrumental::Middleware.boot
