Hoth aims to help developers better understand exceptions--caught or not--in
their application so you can prioritize resolution. Hoth is a simple but
effective exception content tracking system. 

What does Hoth do?
------------------
Hoth can send you an alert when a new, unique exception occurs within your 
application. You only receive these alerts the first time an exception is seen
by Hoth.



Is that all Hoth does?
----------------------
Nope! It gets better. Hoth also tracks each occurrence so you can quickly 
understand how frequent an exception is within your app. No more hunting 
through log files that repeat messages over, and over.



Why should you use Hoth?
------------------------
Hoth helps you analyze your errors so you can prioritize and fix them
without hunting through log, after log, after log......after log.



How do you use Hoth?
--------------------
You can read about, and learn how to implement, Hoth by reading the blog
post here:

http://aarongreenlee.com/share/hoth-coldfusion-errors-tracking-reporting


How can I see the Hoth report right away?
-----------------------------------------
If you would like to see the Hoth Report you can view the example exceptions
by following these steps:

	1.	Drop Hoth in your Web root--or--make a server mapping '/Hoth'
	
	2.	Copy the /Hoth/examples/ColdFusion/HothReportUI.cfc to your
		Web site in an accessible location.
	
	3.	Hit the following URL:
		http://yourwebsite.com/HothReportUI.cfc?method=index
		
	4.	You should now be looking at example Hoth exceptions.


High-level, 50,000 ft. view of what you need to do...
-----------------------------------------------------
There are two distinct parts to Hoth: Tracking and Reporting.

	Tracking
	--------
	Tracking is common to all applications and very easy to set up. These
	instructions will apply to all applications.
	
	Reporting
	---------
	Things become a little (but not a lot) more complex here. Reporting
	requires access to your server from a HTTP call. This is your responsibility
	to setup--and there are lots of paths you can take to implement reporting.
	
	If you take the path of using the HothReportUI.cfc you will definitely 
	want to open that file and make some edits (like adding the path to
	your own HothConfig).
