//! `mdbook`'s low level rendering interface.

//! # Note
//!
//! You usually don't need to work with this module directly. If you want to
//! implement your own backend, then check out the [For Developers] section of
//! the user guide.
//!
//! The definition for [RenderContext] may be useful though.

/// as a JSON string (using `serde_json`).
///
/// > **Note:** The command used doesn't necessarily need to be a single
/// > executable (i.e. `/path/to/renderer`). The `cmd` string lets you pass
/// > in command line arguments, so there's no reason why it couldn't be
/// > `python /path/to/renderer --from mdbook --to epub`.
///
/// Anything the subprocess writes to `stdin` or `stdout` will be passed through
/// to the user. While this gives the renderer maximum flexibility to output
/// whatever it wants, to avoid spamming users it is recommended to avoid
/// unnecessary output.
///
/// To help choose the appropriate output level, the `RUST_LOG` environment
/// variable will be passed through to the subprocess, if set.
///
/// If the subprocess wishes to indicate that rendering failed, it should exit
/// with a non-zero return code.
