SCTGDesk server 1.1.16-sctg.6

Structured logs and visible connection events, both contributed by @noakky. Based on upstream rustdesk-server 1.1.16, like the previous releases.

Server

• LOG_FORMAT=json makes hbbs and hbbr write one JSON object per log line (level, message, file, line, target, time), so log collectors such as Loki or Elasticsearch no longer need a regex. The Rocket API logs go through the same logger and are JSON too. When the variable is unset or has any other value, the text format is unchanged. (#93)
• Connection events are logged at info. An event recorded by /api/audit/conn now appears as one line in the log, without RUST_LOG=debug (which also logs every heartbeat). Events from unknown devices and retries stay at debug, and the user-supplied strings have escaped, so they cannot forge a log line. (#94)

Thanks

Many thanks to @noakky for these two contributions (#93 and #94): clear descriptions, tests, and changes limited to what was needed.

Upgrading

No configuration change and no migration ; LOG_FORMAT is opt-in. Rolling back the binary is enough.

Known limitations

• The full workspace test suite and the musl release build were not part of the contributors' own checks; the CI covers them.
• The translated READMEs do not document LOG_FORMAT yet.
• The limitations of 1.1.16-sctg.5 still apply (records posted by the devices cannot be authenticated, unsigned Windows and macOS server binaries, no iOS, Android or Linux client build).
