# Objective
- Contributes to #11478
## Solution
- Made `bevy_utils::tracing` `doc(hidden)`
- Re-exported `tracing` from `bevy_log` for end-users
- Added `tracing` directly to crates that need it.
## Testing
- CI
---
## Migration Guide
If you were importing `tracing` via `bevy::utils::tracing`, instead use
`bevy::log::tracing`. Note that many items within `tracing` are also
directly re-exported from `bevy::log` as well, so you may only need
`bevy::log` for the most common items (e.g., `warn!`, `trace!`, etc.).
This also applies to the `log_once!` family of macros.
## Notes
- While this doesn't reduce the line-count in `bevy_utils`, it further
decouples the internal crates from `bevy_utils`, making its eventual
removal more feasible in the future.
- I have just imported `tracing` as we do for all dependencies. However,
a workspace dependency may be more appropriate for version management.
# Objective
Fixes#16104
## Solution
I removed all instances of `:?` and put them back one by one where it
caused an error.
I removed some bevy_utils helper functions that were only used in 2
places and don't add value. See: #11478
## Testing
CI should catch the mistakes
## Migration Guide
`bevy::utils::{dbg,info,warn,error}` were removed. Use
`bevy::utils::tracing::{debug,info,warn,error}` instead.

# Objective
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12597
The current tracing customization option (the `update_subscriber` field)
was basically unusable because it provides a `dyn Subscriber` and most
layers require a `Subscriber` that also implements `for<'a>
LookupSpan<'a, Data=Data<'a>>`, so it was impossible to add a layer on
top of the `dyn Subscriber`.
This PR provides an alternative way of adding additional tracing layers
to the LogPlugin by instead creating an `Option<Layer>`.
This is enough for most situations because `Option<Layer>` and
`Vec<Layer>` both implement `Layer`.
## Solution
- Replace the `update_subscriber` field of `LogPlugin` with a
`custom_layer` field which is function pointer returning an
`Option<BoxedLayer>`
- Update the examples to showcase that this works:
- with multiple additional layers
- with Layers that were previously problematic, such as
`bevy::log::tracing_subscriber::fmt::layer().with_file(true)` (mentioned
in the issue)
Note that in the example this results in duplicate logs, since we have
our own layer on top of the default `fmt_layer` added in the LogPlugin;
maybe in the future we might want to provide a single one? Or to let the
user customize the default `fmt_layer` ? I still think this change is an
improvement upon the previous solution, which was basically broken.

externally-visible impact, you can delete this section.
- The `LogPlugin`'s `update_subscriber` field has been replaced with
`custom_layer` to allow the user to flexibly add a `tracing::Layer` to
the layer stack
## Migration Guide
- The `LogPlugin`'s `update_subscriber` field has been replaced with
`custom_layer`

# Objective
In my library,
[`bevy_dev_console`](https://github.com/doonv/bevy_dev_console) I need
access to `App` within `LogPlugin::update_subscriber` in order to
communicate with the `App` from my custom `Layer`.
## Solution
Give access to `App`.
---
## Changelog
- Added access to `App` within `LogPlugin::update_subscriber`
## Migration Guide
`LogPlugin::update_subscriber` now has a `&mut App` parameter. If you
don't need access to `App`, you can ignore the parameter with an
underscore (`_`).
```diff,rust
- fn update_subscriber(subscriber: BoxedSubscriber) -> BoxedSubscriber {
+ fn update_subscriber(_: &mut App, subscriber: BoxedSubscriber) -> BoxedSubscriber {
Box::new(subscriber.with(CustomLayer))
}
```
# Objective
This PR is heavily inspired by
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7682
It aims to solve the same problem: allowing the user to extend the
tracing subscriber with extra layers.
(in my case, I'd like to use `use
metrics_tracing_context::{MetricsLayer, TracingContextLayer};`)
## Solution
I'm proposing a different api where the user has the opportunity to take
the existing `subscriber` and apply any transformations on it.
---
## Changelog
- Added a `update_subscriber` option on the `LogPlugin` that lets the
user modify the `subscriber` (for example to extend it with more tracing
`Layers`
## Migration Guide
> This section is optional. If there are no breaking changes, you can
delete this section.
- Added a new field `update_subscriber` in the `LogPlugin`
