Thomas Eizinger 2013d6a2bf chore(connlib): improve logging (#5836)
Currently, the logging of fields in spans for encapsulate and
decapsulate operations is a bit inconsistent between client and gateway.
Logging the `from` field for every message is actually quite redundant
because most of these logs are emitted within `snownet`'s `Allocation`
which can add its own span to indicate, which relay we are talking to.

For most other operations, it is much more useful to log the connection
ID instead of IPs.

This should make the logs a bit more succinct.

Rust development guide

Firezone uses Rust for all data plane components. This directory contains the Linux and Windows clients, and low-level networking implementations related to STUN/TURN.

We target the last stable release of Rust using rust-toolchain.toml. If you are using rustup, that is automatically handled for you. Otherwise, ensure you have the latest stable version of Rust installed.

Reading Client logs

The Client logs are written as JSONL for machine-readability.

To make them more human-friendly, pipe them through jq like this:

cd path/to/logs  # e.g. `$HOME/.cache/dev.firezone.client/data/logs` on Linux
cat *.log | jq -r '"\(.time) \(.severity) \(.message)"'

Resulting in, e.g.

2024-04-01T18:25:47.237661392Z INFO started log
2024-04-01T18:25:47.238193266Z INFO GIT_VERSION = 1.0.0-pre.11-35-gcc0d43531
