Request: Show audio metadata in stream logs

[SaveRobots]

Docker tag: latest

A while back, I submitted a feature request #212 to add additional detail to see what users are streaming within the logs. The feature was working great until today when I updated to the latest version. The logs now look something like:

GET /stream?u=USER&s=REDACTED&t=REDACTED&v=1.2.0&c=DSub&id=tr-53823&maxBitRate=273

Can we get readable stream logs back? This was a highly used feature for myself.

whats the usecase for this? there is some compexity in this since we can potentially stream lots of different file types including podcasts etc

To log and understand what parts of my library that my users are accessing. This seems like a pretty common feature for a media library/streaming platform.

sorry i think i don't really like this feature. there's something about it. maybe it's a little specific/spammy/or just creepy

one idea if you want to watch a stream of currently playing track try this

docker compose logs --tail 20 -f main | while read -r line; do id="$(echo "$line" | grep -Po "tr-\K[0-9]+")"; [ -z "$id" ] && continue; echo "playing track $id"; sqlite3 main_data/gonic.db "select artists.name, tracks.tag_title from tracks join track_artists on track_artists.track_id=tracks.id join artists on artists.id=track_artists.artist_id where tracks.id=$id"; done

assuming docker, and your log stream is docker compose logs --tail 20 -f main, and your gonic db path is main_data/gonic.db

That is kind of a strange response, considering this was a feature you had previously implemented via request.

I appreciate the alternative solution, but not really what I was looking for. Thanks anyways.
