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 renames the "sections" list to "items". In practice, this list has
contained more than just "sections" since parts were added. Also, the
rest of the code consistently uses the term "items", since the values it
contains are called `BookItem`s. Finally, the naming has always been a
little confusing to me.
This is a very disruptive change, and I'm not doing it lightly. However,
since there are a number of other API changes going into 0.5, I think
now is an ok time to change this.
