Select interfaces #1

Closed Nowaker closed 7 years ago

Nowaker commented 7 years ago

I'd like to exclude all the communication that happens on certain interfaces. For example - any communication on docker0 because it's mostly communication to lo. Therefore, I'd like to select interfaces I want shown on the widget, and I'd select eth0 and wlan0.

BTW - best netspeed widget in KDE!

Yeah, that has been on my TODO list for a long time now, so I won't make any promises.

Thank you!

Yes, I want this feature as well, in my case I have a interface for my VPN connection that "replicates" every traffic that passes from my main ethernet interface, now the applet is showing doubled speed values, I'd like to select which interfaces I want to monitor.

Hey @dfaust, thanks for doing it. You rock! When will this show up in KDE Store?

dfaust commented 7 years ago

@Nowaker It should already, I uploaded the new version there right after pushing it to github.

Nowaker commented 7 years ago

@dfaust It might be a stupid question but... how do I update it? I go to "Download New Plasma Widgets", I download yours (the new version showed up in KDE Store 5 days after you pushed it there), but there's no effect. The widget configuration window has no new stuff. And when I restart KDE, plasma widgets thingy doesn't consider the latest version of your widget installed. Thanks.

In my case I had to remove and uninstall the widget first, re-login from my KDE session, get back and reinstall the widget to get the update.

Thanks @chmercesmoreira!

dfaust commented 7 years ago

Well that sucks. Not sure what I can do about that though. I hope re-installing works. Thank you @chmercesmoreira.
