pub fn record_field(field_name: &str, field_value: &dyn Debug)
Expand description

For the current active span, record field_value for the field field_name. This fields must already be defined in the current span.

All events that happen inside this span will have these fields attached as additional data.

For example:

  2022-12-05T19:47:03.090605Z  INFO lock_keeper_key_server::operations::authenticate: Starting authentication protocol.
    at lock-keeper-key-server/src/operations/authenticate.rs:38
    in lock_keeper_key_server::operations::authenticate::operation
    in lock_keeper_key_server::server::operation::handle_request with request_id: "9cb5e6fe-aa86-43e9-b7c9-413c005cbb50", action: "Authenticate"

We can see here the handle_request span has fields “request_id” and “action”.

If running on development mode, this function will check if the field has NOT been defined and log a warning.

Note: We use dynamic dispatch for the field_value argument as we expect lots of types to call this function.
