//! Subscribers collect and record trace data.
use crate::{span, Event, Metadata};

use crate::stdlib::any::{Any, TypeId};

/// Trait representing the functions required to collect trace data.
///
/// Crates that provide implementations of methods for collecting or recording
/// trace data should implement the `Subscriber` interface. This trait is
/// intended to represent fundamental primitives for collecting trace events and
/// spans — other libraries may offer utility functions and types to make
/// subscriber implementations more modular or improve the ergonomics of writing
/// subscribers.
///
/// A subscriber is responsible for the following:
/// - Registering new spans as they are created, and providing them with span
///   IDs. Implicitly, this means the subscriber may determine the strategy for
///   determining span equality.
/// - Recording the attachment of field values and follows-from annotations to
///   spans.
/// - Filtering spans and events, and determining when those filters must be
///   invalidated.
/// - Observing spans as they are entered, exited, and closed, and events as
///   they occur.
///
/// When a span is entered or exited, the subscriber is provided only with the
/// [ID] with which it tagged that span when it was created. This means
/// that it is up to the subscriber to determine whether and how span _data_ —
/// the fields and metadata describing the span — should be stored. The
/// [`new_span`] function is called when a new span is created, and at that
/// point, the subscriber _may_ choose to store the associated data if it will
/// be referenced again. However, if the data has already been recorded and will
/// not be needed by the implementations of `enter` and `exit`, the subscriber
/// may freely discard that data without allocating space to store it.
///
/// ## Overriding default impls
///
/// Some trait methods on `Subscriber` have default implementations, either in
/// order to reduce the surface area of implementing `Subscriber`, or for
/// backward-compatibility reasons. However, many subscribers will likely want
/// to override these default implementations.
///
/// The following methods are likely of interest:
///
/// - [`register_callsite`] is called once for each callsite from which a span
///   event may originate, and returns an [`Interest`] value describing whether or
///   not the subscriber wishes to see events or spans from that callsite. By
///   default, it calls [`enabled`], and returns `Interest::always()` if
///   `enabled` returns true, or `Interest::never()` if enabled returns false.
///   However, if the subscriber's interest can change dynamically at runtime,
///   it may want to override this function to return `Interest::sometimes()`.
///   Additionally, subscribers which wish to perform a behaviour once for each
///   callsite, such as allocating storage for data related to that callsite,
///   can perform it in `register_callsite`.
/// - [`clone_span`] is called every time a span ID is cloned, and [`try_close`]
///   is called when a span ID is dropped. By default, these functions do
///   nothing. However, they can be used to implement reference counting for
///   spans, allowing subscribers to free storage for span data and to determine
///   when a span has _closed_ permanently (rather than being exited).
///   Subscribers which store per-span data or which need to track span closures
///   should override these functions together.

    /// Registers a new callsite with this subscriber, returning whether or not
    /// the subscriber is interested in being notified about the callsite.
    ///
    /// By default, this function assumes that the subscriber's [filter]
    /// represents an unchanging view of its interest in the callsite. However,
    /// if this is not the case, subscribers may override this function to
    /// indicate different interests, or to implement behaviour that should run
    /// once for every callsite.
    ///
    /// This function is guaranteed to be called at least once per callsite on
    /// every active subscriber. The subscriber may store the keys to fields it
    /// cares about in order to reduce the cost of accessing fields by name,
    /// preallocate storage for that callsite, or perform any other actions it
    /// wishes to perform once for each callsite.
    ///
    /// The subscriber should then return an [`Interest`], indicating
    /// whether it is interested in being notified about that callsite in the
    /// future. This may be `Always` indicating that the subscriber always
    /// wishes to be notified about the callsite, and its filter need not be
    /// re-evaluated; `Sometimes`, indicating that the subscriber may sometimes
    /// care about the callsite but not always (such as when sampling), or
    /// `Never`, indicating that the subscriber never wishes to be notified about
    /// that callsite. If all active subscribers return `Never`, a callsite will
    /// never be enabled unless a new subscriber expresses interest in it.
    ///
    /// `Subscriber`s which require their filters to be run every time an event
    /// occurs or a span is entered/exited should return `Interest::sometimes`.
    /// If a subscriber returns `Interest::sometimes`, then its' [`enabled`] method
    /// will be called every time an event or span is created from that callsite.
    ///
    /// For example, suppose a sampling subscriber is implemented by
    /// incrementing a counter every time `enabled` is called and only returning
    /// `true` when the counter is divisible by a specified sampling rate. If
    /// that subscriber returns `Interest::always` from `register_callsite`, then
    /// the filter will not be re-evaluated once it has been applied to a given
    /// set of metadata. Thus, the counter will not be incremented, and the span
    /// or event that corresponds to the metadata will never be `enabled`.
    ///
    /// `Subscriber`s that need to change their filters occasionally should call
    /// [`rebuild_interest_cache`] to re-evaluate `register_callsite` for all
    /// callsites.
    ///
    /// Similarly, if a `Subscriber` has a filtering strategy that can be
    /// changed dynamically at runtime, it would need to re-evaluate that filter
    /// if the cached results have changed.
    ///
    /// A subscriber which manages fanout to multiple other subscribers
    /// should proxy this decision to all of its child subscribers,
    /// returning `Interest::never` only if _all_ such children return
    /// `Interest::never`. If the set of subscribers to which spans are
    /// broadcast may change dynamically, the subscriber should also never
    /// return `Interest::Never`, as a new subscriber may be added that _is_
    /// interested.
    ///
    /// # Notes
    /// This function may be called again when a new subscriber is created or
    /// when the registry is invalidated.
    ///
