[request] Daily and monthly usage #20

Open Ahmed-E-86 opened 4 years ago

Ahmed-E-86 commented 4 years ago

Could you please add an option to store daily and monthly usage?

I used to get these kinds of information from Download and upload speed applet that is available on Cinnamon >> https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/238

It will be helpful with people with limited data usage.

dunno if it belongs to this widget. if You need this kind of data there is vnstat – reliable tool for manual data monitoring

@dfaust

That would be fantastic if such a Daily and Montly usage could be added.

Here are examples of what it could look like. In this case, it's an Android app. The .apk file can be downloaded here. https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/dynamicapps/internet-speed-meter-lite/internet-speed-meter-lite-1-5-9-lite-release/ Screenshot_2021-02-06-01-29-11-375_com internet speed meter lite

guys please take a look at my request: https://github.com/dfaust/plasma-applet-netspeed-widget/issues/22

and at vnstat: https://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=vnstat%20-m (so for example something like „vnstat -d; vnstat -m” to cover that example pic in cli)

dfaust commented 3 years ago

vnstat looks interesting. You could set up vnstat (or something similar) and launch the statistics output with a click on the widget (see #22). Implementing an entire statistics gathering system would be too much for this applet, though.
