# Changelog
## 0.0.11 - 2026-09-30
- The servers now log to their own journal (systemd log namespace `terraria`), which members of the `terraria` group can read. `attach` and `cmd` therefore show output to `terraria` group members without `sudo` or the `systemd-journal` group, and without access to the rest of the system's logs. Read it directly with `journalctl --namespace=terraria -u terraria@<name>`.
- New `/etc/systemd/journald@terraria.conf` for the servers' journal size and retention (default: up to 256 MB).
- New internal `terractl journal-access`, run as root before each server start: creates the servers' journal folder (never `/var/log/journal` itself) and gives the `terraria` group read access, repairing existing journal files too.
- The note shown by `attach` and `cmd` when output can't be read now distinguishes "not in the `terraria` group" from "in it, but the journal isn't set up yet".
- Upgrading: running servers keep logging to the system journal until restarted; the package lists the ones to restart.
## 0.0.10 - 2026-09-30
- `cmd` now prints the server's reply to the command, instead of only saying where to find it. It waits until the server has been quiet for a second, up to 5 seconds.
- `attach` and `cmd` now explain when you can send commands but not see the server's output. That happens for members of the `terraria` group who aren't root or in `systemd-journal`. Previously `attach` showed nothing, without saying why.
- Replaced a `${var:+...}` expansion with an explicit `if` in `import`'s summary message (ShellCheck SC2016). The output is unchanged.
## 0.0.9 - 2026-09-28
- New `export` command: `terractl export <name> [file.tar.gz] [--with-server]` archives an instance's `instance.conf`, `serverconfig.txt` and `data/` (worlds, mods, mod configs). If the server is running under systemd, it is asked to save first. Archives are created readable only by their owner, since `serverconfig.txt` can contain the server password. `--with-server` also includes the unpacked server software (and tModLoader's .NET), for hosts without internet access.
