 This library integrates the [`logtail` Ruby library](https://github.com/logtail/logtail-ruby) with the [rack](https://github.com/rack/rack) framework,
 turning your Rack logs into rich structured events.

+
+Collect logs directly from your Ruby Rack projects. To start logging Ruby projects explore the [Logtail Ruby library](https://github.com/logtail/logtail-ruby).
+
+[Better Stack](https://logs.betterstack.com) is a hosted service that centralizes all of your logs into one place.
+Allowing for analysis, correlation and filtering with SQL.
+Actionable Grafana dashboards and collaboration come built-in.
+Logtail works with [any language or platform and any data source](https://betterstack.com/docs/logs/).
+
+### Features
+- Simple integration.
+- Support for structured logging and events.
+- Automatically captures useful context.
+- Performant, light weight, with a thoughtful design.
+
+### Supported language versions
+- Ruby 2.3 or newer
+- Rack 1.2 or newer
+
+# Installation
+Install the Logtail Rack client library, run the following command:
+
+```bash
+bundle add logtail-rack
+```
+
+Alternatively, add `gem "logtail-rack"` to your `Gemfile` manually and then run `bundle install`.
+
+Then add following configuration into your `config.ru`:
+
+```ruby
+# Initialization of logging middlewares (you don't have to use all)
+use Logtail::Integrations::Rack::HTTPContext
+use Logtail::Integrations::Rack::HTTPEvents
+use Logtail::Integrations::Rack::ErrorEvent
+use Logtail::Integrations::Rack::UserContext
+use Logtail::Integrations::Rack::SessionContext
+
+http_io_device = Logtail::LogDevices::HTTP.new("<SOURCE_TOKEN>")
+logger = Logtail::Logger.new(http_io_device)
+Logtail::Config.instance.logger = logger
+
+# Here is your application initialization
+run ...
+```
+
+*Don't forget to replace `<SOURCE_TOKEN>` with your actual source token which you can find by going to [Better Stack Logs](https://logs.betterstack.com/dashboard) -> Source -> Edit.*
+
+---
+
+# Example project
+
+To help you get started with using Better Stack in your Rails projects, we have prepared a simple program that showcases the usage of Logtail logger.
+
+## Download and install the example project
+
+You can download the [example project](https://github.com/logtail/logtail-ruby-rack/tree/main/example-project) from GitHub directly or you can clone it to a select directory. Make sure you are in the projects directory and run the following command:
+
+```bash
+bundle install
+```
+
+This will install all dependencies listed in the `Gemfile.lock` file.
+
+Then replace `<SOURCE_TOKEN>` in `config.ru` with your actual source token which you can find by going to [Better Stack Logs](https://logs.betterstack.com/dashboard) -> Source -> Edit.
+
+```ruby
+http_io_device = Logtail::LogDevices::HTTP.new("<YOUR_ACTUAL_SOURCE_TOKEN>")
+```
+
+## Run the example project
+
+To run the example application, run the following command:
+
+```bash
+rackup
+```
+
+This will start a local server and you visit [http://127.0.0.1:9292](http://127.0.0.1:9292) in your browser.
+
+You should see the following output:
+
+```bash
+All done!
+Log into your Logtail account to check your logs.
+```
+
+This will create a total of 4 different logs. You can review these logs in Better Stack.
+
+You can visit any path on the server to see the request path being logged in context. Visit [/error](http://127.0.0.1:9292) to see an example exception being logged.
+
+## Explore how example project works
+
+Learn how to setup Ruby logging by exploring the workings of the [example project](https://github.com/logtail/logtail-ruby-rack/tree/main/example-project) in detail.
