event_accumulator is missing in v1.1

System information

• TensorFlow version: v1.1

Describe the problem

Before v1.1, there is a class called EventAccumulater in python/summary/event_accumulator.py which is used to export the data from tensorboard. However, in v1.1 this file is missing and the README.md is still the old version, saying "If you wish to load TensorFlow events, you should use an EventAccumulator (to load from a single events file) or an EventMultiplexer (to load from multiple events files)".
Is there any alternative API to load the data from tensorboard record files?

[ZhengyaoJiang]

Ok. I've found the event_accumulator.py in tensorflow/tensorflow/tensorboard/backend/event_processing/.
The movement of the file was done in commit 8c1c861.

Yeah, the Event Accumulator is part of TensorBoard and was never actually exposed as part of the TensorFlow API (although we have mentioned it in the README). I wouldn't expect it to stay in the TensorFlow codebase indefinitely.
