module ActionDispatch
  # # Action Dispatch RequestId
  #
  # Makes a unique request id available to the `action_dispatch.request_id` env
  # variable (which is then accessible through ActionDispatch::Request#request_id
  # or the alias ActionDispatch::Request#uuid) and sends the same id to the client
  # via the `X-Request-Id` header.
  #
  # The unique request id is either based on the `X-Request-Id` header in the
  # request, which would typically be generated by a firewall, load balancer, or
  # the web server, or, if this header is not available, a random uuid. If the
  # header is accepted from the outside world, we sanitize it to a max of 255
  # chars and alphanumeric and dashes only.
  #
  # The unique request id can be used to trace a request end-to-end and would
  # typically end up being part of log files from multiple pieces of the stack.
