package trace

0.9.1

• fix: upper bound on ppxlib
• feat trace-tef: print names of non-closed spans upon exit
• fix: block signals in background threads

0.9

• add an extensible sum type, so users can implement custom events. For example an OTEL collector can provide custom events to link two spans to one another.

0.8

• add trace.subscriber instead of a separate library
• add trace-tef.tldrs, to trace multiple processes easily (with external rust daemon)
• breaking: trace-tef: use mtime.now, not a counter, for multiproc
• trace-fuchsia: require thread-local-storage 0.2

0.7

• feat: add levels to Trace_core. Levels are similar to logs levels, to help control verbosity.
• add hmap as a depopt (#28)
• fix: truncate large strings in fuchsia

0.6

• add ppx_trace for easier instrumentation.

  • let%trace span = "foo" in … will enter a scope span named "foo"
  • let%trace () = "foo" in … will enter a scope named "foo" with a hidden name
• add trace-fuchsia backend, which produces traces in the binary format of fuchsia. These traces are reasonably efficient to produce (~60ns per span on my machines) and reasonably compact on disk, at least compared to the TEF backend.

0.5

• perf: reduce overhead in trace-tef
• perf: add Mpsc_queue, adapted from picos, to trace-tef

0.4

• add ?data to counter_int and counter_float
• add float to user data
• add add_data_to_current_span and add_data_to_manual_span
• make explicit_span.meta mutable
• trace-tef: write to trace.json if env variable TRACE is either 1 or true
• trace-tef: emit function name, if provided, as a metadata key/value pair
• re-export trace.core in trace
• perf: in trace-tef, use broadcast instead of signal in the job queue

0.3

• add explicit spans, for more precise tracing
• rename repo to ocaml-trace
• trace-tef: add a ticker thread to ensure we flush the file regularly

0.2

• trace-tef: additional argument to with_setup; env for "stdout"/"stderr"
• refactor: avoid conflicting with stdlib Trace module by adding sublibrary trace.core. Programs that use compiler-libs.toplevel should use trace.core directly, because using trace will cause linking errors.
• perf(trace-tef): improve behavior of collector under contention by pulling all events at once in the worker
