## Motivation As discussed in #308, there are a large number of crates in this repository, which can be confusing for users and can increase the maintainance burden for maintainers. Also, the `tracing-fmt` and `tracing-subscriber` crates both contain filtering implementations with similar behaviour and APIs, but `tracing-subscriber`'s filter module offers more advanced features (filtering on field values), and is usable with any subscriber implementation. Two separate filter implementations also has the potential to be confusing for users. ## Solution This branch moves most of the code from `tracing-fmt` into a module in `tracing-subscriber`, and changes the `tracing-fmt` builder APIs to use the `Filter` type in `tracing-subscriber`. The `tracing-subscriber/fmt` feature flag can be used to disable the formatting subscriber when it is not used. The `tracing-fmt` crate has been updated to re-export the APIs from `tracing-subscriber`, and marked as deprecated. Once we've published a new version of `tracing-subscriber` with the format APIs, we can publish a final release of `tracing-fmt` that will update the documentation & mark all APIs as deprecated, so that users know to move to the `tracing-subscriber` crate.

tracing-fmt
Note: This library is now part of the tracing-subscriber
crate. This
crate now re-exports its public API from tracing-subscriber
. Using
tracing-fmt
is now deprecated; users are encouraged to use the APIs in
this library from their new home in tracing-subscriber::fmt
.
Overview
tracing
is a framework for instrumenting Rust programs with context-aware,
structured, event-based diagnostic information. This crate provides an
implementation of the Subscriber
trait that records tracing
's Event
s
and Span
s by formatting them as text and logging them to stdout.
