 *
 * Method descriptions are partials. Check the site for more.
 * @link https://newrelic.com/docs/php/the-php-api
 * 
 * Started out as a gist from devster {@link https://gist.github.com/devster/1885331}
 * I removed its static functionality and added the docblock method annotations
 *
 * @method bool setAppname(string $name, string $license = '', bool $xmit =  false) Sets the name of the application to name
 * @method void noticeError(string $message, Exception $exception) Report an error at this line of code, with a complete stack trace
 * @method void nameTransaction(string $string) Sets the name of the transaction to the specified strin
 * @method void endOfTransaction() Stop recording the web transaction immediately
 * @method void endTransaction(bool $ignore = false ) Marks the end time of the transaction but takes no other action
 * @method void startTransaction(string $appname, string $license = '' ) This will perform the same operations that occur when the script was first started
 * @method void ignoreTransaction() Do not generate metrics for this transaction
 * @method void ignoreApdex() Do not generate Apdex metrics for this transaction
 * @method void backgroundJob(bool $flag = true) Mark the current transaction as a background job
 * @method void captureParams(string $enable = 'on') Enables the capturing of URL parameters for displaying in transaction traces
 * @method void customMetric(string $metric_name, Double $value) Adds a custom metric with the specified name and value
 * @method void addCustomParameter(string $key, string $value ) Add a custom parameter to the current web transaction with the specified value
 * @method void addCustomTracer(callable $function_name) Allows you to add user defined functions or methods to the list to be instrumented
 * @method String getBrowserTimingHeader(bool $in_script_tags = true) Returns the JavaScript string to inject as part of the header for browser timing (real user monitoring)
 * @method String getBrowserTimingFooter(bool $in_script_tags = true) Returns the JavaScript string to inject at the very end of the HTML output for browser timing (real user monitoring)
 * @method void disableAutorum() Prevents the output filter from attempting to insert RUM JavaScript for this current transaction, useful for AJAX calls
