Thanks to @coolreader19 for contributing to this release!

0.1.24 (April 24th, 2023)

This release of tracing-attributes adds support for passing an optional level to the err and ret arguments to #[instrument], allowing the level of the generated return-value event to be overridden. For example,

#[instrument(err(level = "info"))]
fn my_great_function() -> Result<(), &'static str> {
    // ...
}

will emit an INFO-level event if the function returns an Err.

In addition, this release updates the syn dependency to v2.x.x.

Added

• level argument to err and ret to override the level of the generated return value event (#2335)
• Improved compiler error message when #[instrument] is added to a const fn (#2418)

Changed

• Updated syn dependency to 2.0 (#2516)

Fixed

• Fix clippy::unreachable warnings in #[instrument]-generated code (#2356)
• Removed unused "visit" feature flag from syn dependency (#2530)

Documented

• Documented default level for err (#2433)
• Improved documentation for levels in #[instrument] (#2350)

Thanks to @nitnelave, @jsgf, @Abhicodes-crypto, @LukeMathWalker, @andrewpollack, @quad, @klensy, @davidpdrsn, and @dbidwell94 for contributign to this release!

0.1.23 (October 6, 2022)

This release of tracing-attributes fixes a bug where compiler diagnostic spans for type errors in #[instrument]ed async fns have the location of the #[instrument] attribute rather than the location of the actual error, and a bug where inner attributes in #[instrument]ed functions would cause a compiler error.

Fixed

• Fix incorrect handling of inner attributes in #[instrument]ed functions (#2307)
• Add fake return to improve spans generated for type errors in async fns (#2270)
• Updated syn dependency to fix compilation with -Z minimal-versions (#2246)

0.1.22 (July 1, 2022)

This release fixes an issue where using the err or ret arguments to #[instrument] along with an overridden target, such as

#[instrument(target = "...", err, ret)]

would not propagate the overridden target to the events generated for errors/return values.

Fixed

• Error and return value events generated by #[instrument(err)] or #[instrument(ret)] not inheriting an overridden target (#2184)
• Incorrect default level in documentation (#2119)

Thanks to new contributor @tbraun96 for contributing to this release!

0.1.19 (February 3, 2022)

This release introduces a new #[instrument(ret)] argument to emit an event with the return value of an instrumented function.
