The log now has a stored, queryable copy for the diagnostics console:
every WARNING and above plus the request line of every request, kept
for log_retention_days (default 7, no "forever") and pruned hourly by
the new log_gc job.
Rows are built on the logging thread from the same redacted fields as
the stdout line, queued without blocking and written in batches by one
background thread on its own connection. A full queue or a failed write
drops and reports instead of retrying. Flood control keeps 30 of any
one message per minute plus a count of the rest; anonymous request
lines are capped at 60 a minute per client, and the client address is
never stored. Deleting an account deletes its stored events.
Measured on prod first: a YouTube RSS outage wrote 11k warnings in four
hours, one per channel per poll. The poll now writes one warning with
per-reason counts and a few examples, and a failure on our side gets
one traceback per poll instead of one per channel.
log_level, search_source, download_layout and the transcode hw/preset
were typed by hand, and every consumer carried its own guess at what a
typo meant. The value set is now a Literal in config.py: pydantic
rejects a bad env value at boot (any letter case accepted), sysconfig
refuses a bad override and derives the admin picker's options from the
same Literal, and the consumers read the value as-is.
The Configuration page renders a choice key as a segmented bar, or a
dropdown past six options, with translated option names. Its tabs now
follow the registry's order instead of a hand-kept copy that had
already dropped the explore group.
A single-choice FilterSelect now opens on the option in use: in the
browser it could land on the first row instead.
A deployment printed four different log formats and none of them could be
joined up: uvicorn's log_config.json for the API, a hand-rolled StreamHandler in
main.py for anything not started by uvicorn, logging.basicConfig() in the worker
and in the download child (no timestamp at all), and alembic's fileConfig.
app/logs.py replaces all four with one JSON line per event (OpenTelemetry's log
data model, no SDK): ts, level, severity, source, logger, event code, message,
attributes, plus the correlation the context carries — request id, account,
download job.
Redaction is applied at the HANDLER, not at the call sites: every message, every
attribute and every traceback is scrubbed on the way out, so a secret cannot
leak by being forgotten at one of ~125 call sites. Passwords, tokens, cookies,
secret config values and email addresses never reach a line.
The access log is ours now (`http.request`): the route template instead of the
concrete path, the status, the duration and the account — and never the query
string, which uvicorn's access log printed on every single request (`?account=`,
`?source=`, the `?token=` of a share link). A well-formed client request id is
accepted and echoed in X-Request-Id, so a browser line and a server line join up.
The account comes from `request.state`, filled by the auth dependency: the
middleware is the outermost one, so it runs outside SessionMiddleware and in a
different task context.
`log_level` becomes an admin knob (sysconfig), applied without a restart and
re-applied at startup — best-effort on purpose, since a logging knob must never
be what stops the app from booting. Every compose service gets bounded json-file
logs (3×50 MB): Docker keeps every line forever by default, and the API now
writes one line per request.
Verified on the localdev stack: JSON everywhere including alembic and the
worker, the query strings gone, a supplied X-Request-Id echoed and logged, and
three /healthz hits of which only the one made while the level was DEBUG
produced a line.
