Crate spotflow_logger 

An unofficial Spotflow Observability Platform client.

Overview

This crate provides a simple API for logging messages to the Spotflow Observability Platform. It could be used directly or as an integration with tracing crate. For tracing it provides a tracing-subscriber Layer.

Current implementation is std and requires async environment.

Examples

let (spotflow_logger, spotflow_task, spotflow_stopper) = SpotflowLogger::builder()
    // name of device to be displayed in Spotflow Observability Platform
    .set_device_id("test1")
    // spotflow ingest key from https://app.spotflow.io/ingest-keys
    .set_password(mqtt_password)
    .build();

// spawn task handling MQTT communication with spotflow platform
let spotflow_task = task::spawn(spotflow_task);

// register client with tracing-subscriber
tracing_subscriber::registry()
    .with(LevelFilter::INFO)
    .with(spotflow_logger)
    .init();

tracing::info!("test message");

// send a request to finish `spotflow_task`
spotflow_stopper.stop().unwrap();
// join the `spotflow_task`
_ = spotflow_task.await;

API

The entry point to this crate is SpotflowLogger::builder, which creates a SpotflowLoggerBuilder instance.

Unresolved Issues

Currently there are following issues:

• Errors during log line send or processing are suppressed.

• MQTT QoS is forced to be AtMostOnce.

• TRACE log level is mapped to DEBUG since spotflow does not support TRACE.

• Some large integral types like u128 are not supported for cbor.

• Tracing span and instrument are not supported.

• no_std environment is not supported.

Feature Flags

Following features are supported:

• cbor (on by default). Uses CBOR object representation for log messages. This feature flag is mutually exclusive with json.

• json. Uses JSON format for log messages. This feature flag is mutually exclusive with cbor.

• tracing. Provides additianal API for tracing crate integration.
