34## Overview
35
36[`tracing`] is a framework for instrumenting Rust programs with context-aware,
37structured, event-based diagnostic information. This crate provides
38compatibility layers for using `tracing` alongside the logging facade provided
39by the [`log`] crate.
40
41This crate provides:
42
43- [`AsTrace`] and [`AsLog`] traits for converting between `tracing` and `log` types.
44- [`LogTracer`], a [`log::Log`] implementation that consumes [`log::Record`]s
45  and outputs them as [`tracing::Event`]s.
46- An [`env_logger`] module, with helpers for using the [`env_logger` crate]
47  with `tracing` (optional, enabled by the `env_logger` feature).

63## Supported Rust Versions
64
65Tracing is built against the latest stable release. The minimum supported
66version is 1.42. The current Tracing version is not guaranteed to build on Rust
67versions earlier than the minimum supported version.
68
69Tracing follows the same compiler support policies as the rest of the Tokio
70project. The current stable Rust compiler and the three most recent minor
71versions before it will always be supported. For example, if the current stable
72compiler version is 1.45, the minimum supported version will not be increased
73past 1.42, three minor versions prior. Increasing the minimum supported compiler
74version is not considered a semver breaking change as long as doing so complies
75with this policy.
