Since individual tasks are multiplexed on the same +thread, associated events and log lines are intermixed making it difficult to +trace the logic flow. `tracing` expands upon logging-style diagnostics by +allowing libraries and applications to record structured events with additional +information about *temporality* and *causality* — unlike a log message, a span +in `tracing` has a beginning and end time, may be entered and exited by the +flow of execution, and may exist within a nested tree of similar spans. In +addition, `tracing` spans are *structured*, with the ability to record typed +data as well as textual messages. + +The `tracing` crate provides the APIs necessary for instrumenting libraries +and applications to emit trace data. + +*Compiler support: [requires `rustc` 1.49+][msrv]* + +[msrv]: #supported-rust-versions + +## Usage + +(The examples below are borrowed from the `log` crate's yak-shaving +[example](https://docs.rs/log/0.4.10/log/index.html#examples), modified to +idiomatic `tracing`.) + +### In Applications + +In order to record trace events, executables have to use a `Subscriber` +implementation compatible with `tracing`. A `Subscriber` implements a way of +collecting trace data, such as by logging it to standard output. [`tracing_subscriber`](https://docs.rs/tracing-subscriber/)'s +[`fmt` module](https://docs.rs/tracing-subscriber/0.3/tracing_subscriber/fmt/index.html) provides reasonable defaults. +Additionally, `tracing-subscriber` is able to consume messages emitted by `log`-instrumented libraries and modules. + +The simplest way to use a subscriber is to call the `set_global_default` function. + +```rust +use tracing::{info, Level}; +use tracing_subscriber::FmtSubscriber; + +fn main() { + // a builder for `FmtSubscriber`. + let subscriber = FmtSubscriber::builder() + // all spans/events with a level higher than TRACE (e.g, debug, info, warn, etc.) + // will be written to stdout. + .with_max_level(Level::TRACE) + // completes the builder. + .finish(); + + tracing::subscriber::set_global_default(subscriber) + .expect("setting default subscriber failed"); + + let number_of_yaks = 3; + // this creates a new event, outside of any spans. + info!(number_of_yaks, "preparing to shave yaks"); + + let number_shaved = yak_shave::shave_all(number_of_yaks); + info!( + all_yaks_shaved = number_shaved == number_of_yaks, + "yak shaving completed." + ); +} +``` + +```toml +[dependencies] +tracing = "0.1" +tracing-subscriber = "0.2.0" +``` + +This subscriber will be used as the default in all threads for the remainder of the duration +of the program, similar to how loggers work in the `log` crate. + +In addition, you can locally override the default subscriber. For example: + +```rust +use tracing::{info, Level}; +use tracing_subscriber::FmtSubscriber; + +fn main() { + let subscriber = tracing_subscriber::FmtSubscriber::builder() + // all spans/events with a level higher than TRACE (e.g, debug, info, warn, etc.) + // will be written to stdout. + .with_max_level(Level::TRACE) + // builds the subscriber. + .finish(); + + tracing::subscriber::with_default(subscriber, || { + info!("This will be logged to stdout"); + }); + info!("This will _not_ be logged to stdout"); +} +``` + +This approach allows trace data to be collected by multiple subscribers +within different contexts in the program. Note that the override only applies to the +currently executing thread; other threads will not see the change from with_default. + +Any trace events generated outside the context of a subscriber will not be collected. + +Once a subscriber has been set, instrumentation points may be added to the +executable using the `tracing` crate's macros. + +### In Libraries + +Libraries should only rely on the `tracing` crate and use the provided macros +and types to collect whatever information might be useful to downstream consumers. + +```rust +use std::{error::Error, io}; +use tracing::{debug, error, info, span, warn, Level}; + +// the `#[tracing::instrument]` attribute creates and enters a span +// every time the instrumented function is called. The span is named after the +// the function or method. Paramaters passed to the function are recorded as fields. +#[tracing::instrument] +pub fn shave(yak: usize) -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error + 'static>> { + // this creates an event at the DEBUG level with two fields: + // - `excitement`, with the key "excitement" and the value "yay!" + // - `message`, with the key "message" and the value "hello! I'm gonna shave a yak." + // + // unlike other fields, `message`'s shorthand initialization is just the string itself. + debug!(excitement = "yay!", "hello! I'm gonna shave a yak."); + if yak == 3 { + warn!("could not locate yak!"); + // note that this is intended to demonstrate `tracing`'s features, not idiomatic + // error handling! in a library or application, you should consider returning + // a dedicated `YakError`. libraries like snafu or thiserror make this easy. + return Err(io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::Other, "shaving yak failed!").into()); + } else { + debug!("yak shaved successfully"); + } + Ok(()) +} + +pub fn shave_all(yaks: usize) -> usize { + // Constructs a new span named "shaving_yaks" at the TRACE level, + // and a field whose key is "yaks". This is equivalent to writing: + // + // let span = span!(Level::TRACE, "shaving_yaks", yaks = yaks); + // + // local variables (`yaks`) can be used as field values + // without an assignment, similar to struct initializers. + let _span_ = span!(Level::TRACE, "shaving_yaks", yaks).entered(); + + info!("shaving yaks"); + + let mut yaks_shaved = 0; + for yak in 1..=yaks { + let res = shave(yak); + debug!(yak, shaved = res.is_ok()); + + if let Err(ref error) = res { + // Like spans, events can also use the field initialization shorthand. + // In this instance, `yak` is the field being initalized. + error!(yak, error = error.as_ref(), "failed to shave yak!"); + } else { + yaks_shaved += 1; + } + debug!(yaks_shaved); + } + + yaks_shaved +} +``` + +```toml +[dependencies] +tracing = "0.1" +``` + +Note: Libraries should *NOT* call `set_global_default()`, as this will cause +conflicts when executables try to set the default later. + +### In Asynchronous Code + +If you are instrumenting code that make use of +[`std::future::Future`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/future/trait.Future.html) +or async/await, avoid using the `Span::enter` method. The following example +_will not_ work: + +```rust +async { + let _s = span.enter(); + // ... +} +``` +```rust +async { + let _s = tracing::span!(...).entered(); + // ... +} +``` + +The span guard `_s` will not exit until the future generated by the `async` block is complete. +Since futures and spans can be entered and exited _multiple_ times without them completing, +the span remains entered for as long as the future exists, rather than being entered only when +it is polled, leading to very confusing and incorrect output. +For more details, see [the documentation on closing spans](https://tracing.rs/tracing/span/index.html#closing-spans). + +There are two ways to instrument asynchronous code. The first is through the +[`Future::instrument`](https://docs.rs/tracing/latest/tracing/trait.Instrument.html#method.instrument) combinator: + +```rust +use tracing::Instrument; + +let my_future = async { + // ... +}; + +my_future + .instrument(tracing::info_span!("my_future")) + .await +``` + +`Future::instrument` attaches a span to the future, ensuring that the span's lifetime +is as long as the future's. + +The second, and preferred, option is through the +[`#[instrument]`](https://docs.rs/tracing/0.1.35/tracing/attr.instrument.html) +attribute: + +```rust +use tracing::{info, instrument}; +use tokio::{io::AsyncWriteExt, net::TcpStream}; +use std::io; + +#[instrument] +async fn write(stream: &mut TcpStream) -> io::Result<usize> { + let result = stream.write(b"hello world\n").await; + info!("wrote to stream; success={:?}", result.is_ok()); + result +} +``` + +Under the hood, the `#[instrument]` macro performs the same explicit span +attachment that `Future::instrument` does. + +### Concepts + +This crate provides macros for creating `Span`s and `Event`s, which represent +periods of time and momentary events within the execution of a program, +respectively. + +As a rule of thumb, _spans_ should be used to represent discrete units of work +(e.g., a given request's lifetime in a server) or periods of time spent in a +given context (e.g., time spent interacting with an instance of an external +system, such as a database). In contrast, _events_ should be used to represent +points in time within a span — a request returned with a given status code, +_n_ new items were taken from a queue, and so on. + +`Span`s are constructed using the `span!` macro, and then _entered_ +to indicate that some code takes place within the context of that `Span`: + +```rust +use tracing::{span, Level}; + +// Construct a new span named "my span". +let mut span = span!(Level::INFO, "my span"); +span.in_scope(|| { + // Any trace events in this closure or code called by it will occur within + // the span. +}); +// Dropping the span will close it, indicating that it has ended. +``` + +The [`#[instrument]`](https://docs.rs/tracing/0.1.35/tracing/attr.instrument.html) attribute macro +can reduce some of this boilerplate: + +```rust +use tracing::{instrument}; + +#[instrument] +pub fn my_function(my_arg: usize) { + // This event will be recorded inside a span named `my_function` with the + // field `my_arg`. + tracing::info!("inside my_function!"); + // ... +} +``` + +The `Event` type represent an event that occurs instantaneously, and is +essentially a `Span` that cannot be entered. They are created using the `event!` +macro: + +```rust +use tracing::{event, Level}; + +event!(Level::INFO, "something has happened!"); +``` + +Users of the [`log`] crate should note that `tracing` exposes a set of macros for +creating `Event`s (`trace!`, `debug!`, `info!`, `warn!`, and `error!`) which may +be invoked with the same syntax as the similarly-named macros from the `log` +crate. Often, the process of converting a project to use `tracing` can begin +with a simple drop-in replacement. + +## Supported Rust Versions + +Tracing is built against the latest stable release. The minimum supported +version is 1.42. The current Tracing version is not guaranteed to build on Rust +versions earlier than the minimum supported version. + +Tracing follows the same compiler support policies as the rest of the Tokio +project. The current stable Rust compiler and the three most recent minor +versions before it will always be supported. For example, if the current stable +compiler version is 1.45, the minimum supported version will not be increased +past 1.42, three minor versions prior. Increasing the minimum supported compiler +version is not considered a semver breaking change as long as doing so complies +with this policy. + +## Ecosystem + +### Related Crates + +In addition to `tracing` and `tracing-core`, the [`tokio-rs/tracing`] repository +contains several additional crates designed to be used with the `tracing` ecosystem. +This includes a collection of `Subscriber` implementations, as well as utility +and adapter crates to assist in writing `Subscriber`s and instrumenting +applications. + +In particular, the following crates are likely to be of interest: + +- [`tracing-futures`] provides a compatibility layer with the `futures` + crate, allowing spans to be attached to `Future`s, `Stream`s, and `Executor`s. +- [`tracing-subscriber`] provides `Subscriber` implementations and + utilities for working with `Subscriber`s. This includes a [`FmtSubscriber`] + `FmtSubscriber` for logging formatted trace data to stdout, with similar + filtering and formatting to the [`env_logger`] crate. +- [`tracing-log`] provides a compatibility layer with the [`log`] crate, + allowing log messages to be recorded as `tracing` `Event`s within the + trace tree. This is useful when a project using `tracing` have + dependencies which use `log`. Note that if you're using + `tracing-subscriber`'s `FmtSubscriber`, you don't need to depend on + `tracing-log` directly. + +Additionally, there are also several third-party crates which are not +maintained by the `tokio` project. These include: + +- [`tracing-timing`] implements inter-event timing metrics on top of `tracing`. + It provides a subscriber that records the time elapsed between pairs of + `tracing` events and generates histograms. +- [`tracing-opentelemetry`] provides a subscriber for emitting traces to + [OpenTelemetry]-compatible distributed tracing systems. +- [`tracing-honeycomb`] Provides a layer that reports traces spanning multiple machines to [honeycomb.io]. Backed by [`tracing-distributed`]. +- [`tracing-distributed`] Provides a generic implementation of a layer that reports traces spanning multiple machines to some backend. +- [`tracing-actix`] provides `tracing` integration for the `actix` actor + framework. +- [`tracing-gelf`] implements a subscriber for exporting traces in Greylog + GELF format. +- [`tracing-coz`] provides integration with the [coz] causal profiler + (Linux-only). +- [`test-log`] takes care of initializing `tracing` for tests, based on + environment variables with an `env_logger` compatible syntax. +- [`tracing-unwrap`] provides convenience methods to report failed unwraps on `Result` or `Option` types to a `Subscriber`. +- [`diesel-tracing`] provides integration with [`diesel`] database connections. +- [`tracing-tracy`] provides a way to collect [Tracy] profiles in instrumented + applications. +- [`tracing-elastic-apm`] provides a layer for reporting traces to [Elastic APM]. +- [`tracing-etw`] provides a layer for emitting Windows [ETW] events. +- [`tracing-fluent-assertions`] provides a fluent assertions-style testing + framework for validating the behavior of `tracing` spans. +- [`sentry-tracing`] provides a layer for reporting events and traces to [Sentry]. +- [`tracing-loki`] provides a layer for shipping logs to [Grafana Loki]. + +If you're the maintainer of a `tracing` ecosystem crate not listed above, +please let us know!
