# What is RudderStack?

**Short answer:** 
Rudder is an open-source Segment alternative written in Go, built for the enterprise. .

**Long answer:** 
Rudder is a platform for collecting, storing and routing customer event data to dozens of tools. Rudder is open-source, can run in your cloud environment (AWS, GCP, Azure or even your data-centre) and provides a powerful transformation framework to process your event data on the fly.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'rudder_analytics_sync'
```

Or install it yourself as:

```sh
$ gem install rudder_analytics_sync
```

## Usage

Create a client instance:

```ruby
analytics = RudderAnalyticsSync::Client.new(
  write_key: <YOUR_WRITE_KEY>, # required
  data_plane_url: <DATA_PLANE_URL>
  on_error: proc { |error_code, error_body, exception, response|
    # defaults to an empty proc
  }
)
```

Use it as you would use `analytics-ruby`:

```ruby
analytics.track(
  user_id: user.id,
  event: 'Created Account'
)
```

### Batching

You can manually batch events with `analytics.batch`:

```ruby
analytics.batch do |batch|
  batch.context = {...}       # shared context for all events
  batch.integrations = {...}  # shared integrations hash for all events
  batch.identify(...)
  batch.track(...)
  batch.track(...)
  ...
end
```
