class Notifier(object):
    """
    Notifiers send build system events to a front end or may implement a front
    end themselves, displaying warnings and errors for a user.

    This is different from a logger in a few ways:
     * The structure of the events are defined by this interface.
     * A "progress" level is included allowing signaling completion status to
       users.
     * It's tailored to providing events from a build system.

    The structure of a message is a dict with a 'type' key. The type key
    determines the remaining keys as follows:
      type       | description and remaining keys
      ---------- | ------------------------------
      info       | A simple message. The 'message' key contains the message
      debug      | Another simple message; this one is less useful when compiles
                 | are working. Again, the 'message' key contains the message
      progress   | A progress indicator, which may include progress as a
                 | percentage. The action key includes what action was taken to
                 | make this progress, the file key what file was used to make
                 | this progress, and the percent key, when present, indicates
                 | how far along the build is.
      tool_error | When a compile fails, this contains the entire output of the
                 | compiler.
      var        | Provides a key, in the 'key' key, and a value, in the 'value'
                 | key, for use in a UI. At the time of writing it's used to
                 | communicate the binary location to the online IDE.
