+// The ActionCable.Consumer establishes the connection to a server-side Ruby Connection object. Once established,
+// the ActionCable.ConnectionMonitor will ensure that its properly maintained through heartbeats and checking for stale updates.
+// The Consumer instance is also the gateway to establishing subscriptions to desired channels through the #createSubscription
+// method.
+//
+// The following example shows how this can be setup:
+//
+// App = {}
+// App.cable = ActionCable.createConsumer("ws://example.com/accounts/1")
+// App.appearance = App.cable.subscriptions.create("AppearanceChannel")
+//
+// For more details on how you'd configure an actual channel subscription, see ActionCable.Subscription.
+//
+// When a consumer is created, it automatically connects with the server.
+//
+// To disconnect from the server, call
+//
+// App.cable.disconnect()
+//
+// and to restart the connection:
+//
+// App.cable.connect()
+//
+// Any channel subscriptions which existed prior to disconnecting will
+// automatically resubscribe.
