Due to a change in tracing-subscriber where it escapes ANSI codes, the
output from rustdoc was changed to be escaped instead of colored. This
fixes the issue by just printing to the console directly.
This does not have a test because it is difficult to emulate a terminal
in the testsuite, and I don't feel like adding color overrides at the
moment.

supporting color codes.
Eventually mdbook's primary output should migrate away from using log
messages, and instead use a structured console system. However, that's a
ways off.
This fixes a problem where custom preprocessors were not being
registered when running tests. This was caused by the test function
rebuilding the preprocessor map.
This removes the code that was rebuilding the preprocessors and removing
the IndexPreprocessor when running tests. Skipping IndexPreprocessor was
added back in https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/741 to fix
https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/issues/724 which was caused by
https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/685 which added the
IndexPreprocessor.
Additionally, https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1986 added
running *all* preprocessors.
The IndexPreprocessor was removed because in the past the code was
testing against the source directly, and the path from `chapter.path` is
the converted `index.md` file, and that filename does not exist in the
source. This isn't a problem anymore because due to
https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/891 it is not reading from the
`src` directory.
Note that this results in a minor change where the chapter path changes
from `README.md` to `index.md` in the output and the `--chapter` option.
I think I'm ok with that change, though it would be easy to switch it
back if that's an issue.
This adds several changes to how environment variables are handled to
more closely align with how configs are handled, and to fix an issue
with replacing entire tables. The changes are:
- Top-level tables like `MDBOOK_BOOK` now *replace* the contents of the
`book` table instead of merging it. This adds consistency with how all
the other environment objects work.
- Fixed allowing top-level replacement of `MDBOOK_BOOK` and
`MDBOOK_OUTPUT`. This was inadvertently recently broken.
- Added ability to replace top-level `MDBOOK_RUST`. I don't recall why
that wasn't included.
- Reject invalid keys like `MDBOOK_FOO`.
- Reject unknown keys, like `MDBOOK_BOOK='{"xyz": 123}'`
- Reject invalid types, like `MDBOOK_BOOK='{"title": 123}'`
This does a little cleanup around the usage of filesystem functions:
- Add `mdbook_core::utils::fs::read_to_string` as a wrapper around
`std::fs::read_to_string` to provide better error messages. Use
this wherever a file is read.
- Add `mdbook_core::utils::fs::create_dir_all` as a wrapper around
`std::fs::create_dir_all` to provide better error messages. Use
this wherever a file is read.
- Replace `mdbook_core::utils::fs::write_file` with `write` to mirror
the `std::fs::write` API.
- Remove `mdbook_core::utils::fs::create_file`. It was generally not
used anymore.
- Scrub the usage of `std::fs` to use the new wrappers. This doesn't
remove it 100%, but it is now significantly reduced.
This switches to using the tracing crate instead of log. Tracing
provides a lot of nice features which we can take advantage of moving
forward.
This also adjusts the output fairly significantly. This includes:
- Switched the environment variable from RUST_LOG to MDBOOK_LOG.
- Dropped the timestamp. I experimented with various different time
displays, but ultimately decided to omit it for now. I don't think
I've ever found it to be useful, and it takes up a very significant
amount of space. It could potentially be useful for basic profiling,
but I think there are other, better mechanisms for that. We could
consider leveraging tracing itself for doing some basic profiling
(like using something like tracing-chrome).
- Dropped the target unless MDBOOK_LOG is set. The target tends to be
pretty noisy, and doesn't really convey much information unless you
are debugging or otherwise trying to adjust the log output.
- Added color.
- Slightly reworked the way the error cause trace is displayed.
- Slightly changed the way html5ever filtering is done, as well as add
handlebars to the list since they both are very noisy. You can
override this now by explicitly listing them as targets.
I still expect that mdbook will eventually change how it displays things
to the console, possibly switching away from tracing and printing things
itself. However, that is a larger project for the future.
This changes `with_renderer` and `with_preprocessor` to replace any
extensions of the same name instead of just appending to the list. This
is necessary for rust-lang's build process, because we replace the
preprocessors with local ones. Previously, mdbook would just print an
error, but continue working. With the change that preprocessors are no
longer optional by default, it is now required that we have a way to
replace the existing entries.
This adds the `optional` field to the preprocessor configuration to
mirror the same option for the `output` table. Missing preprocessors are
now an error unless the `optional` field is set. This should help with
inadvertently building a book when a missing preprocessor that you
expect to be installed.
This changes preprocessors so that:
- Relative paths in the `command` value are relative to the book root.
- The process current directory is the book root.
This makes it so that it isn't dependent on the directory where `mdbook`
is executed.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/issues/1424
This changes it so that it is an error if there is ever an unknown
configuration field. This is intended to help avoid things like typos,
or using an outdated version of mdbook. Although it is possible that new
fields could potentially safely be ignored, setting up a warning system
is a bit more of a hassle. I don't think mdbook needs to have the same
kind of multi-version support as something like cargo does. However, if
this ends up being too much of a pain point, we can try to add a warning
system instead.
There are a variety of changes here:
- The top-level config namespace is now closed so that it only accepts
the keys defined in `Config`.
- All config tables now reject unknown fields.
- Added `Config::outputs` and `Config::preprocessors` for convenience
to access the entire `output` and `preprocessor` tables.
- Moved the unit-tests that were setting environment variables to the
testsuite where it launches a process instead.

This switches all public types to use non_exhaustive to make it easier
to make additions without a semver-breaking change.
Some of the ergonomics are hampered due to the lack of exhaustiveness
checking. Hopefully some day in the future,
non_exhaustive_omitted_patterns_lint or something like it will get
stabilized.

This removes toml as a public dependency. This reduces the exposure of
the public API, reduces exposure of internal implementation, and makes
it easier to make semver-incompatible changes to toml.
This is accomplished through a variety of changes:
- `get` and `get_mut` are removed.
- `get_deserialized_opt` is renamed to `get`.
- Dropped the AsRef for `get_deserialized_opt` for ergonomics, since
using an `&` for a String is not too much to ask, and the other
generic arg needs to be specified in a fair number of situations.
- Removed deprecated `get_deserialized`.
- Dropped `TomlExt` from the public API.
- Removed `get_renderer` and `get_preprocessor` since they were trivial
wrappers over `get`.
