VPN IP address not shown

[logoff]

I'm using new Ubuntu Focal Fossa (20.04) and ifconfig is no longer available, because it was deprecated years ago. I recommend using ip command instead of the old ifconfig.

Do you experience any issues with Powerlevel10k? If yes, please post your config, describe what you expect and what you observe.

[logoff]

I realize that your source uses both, ifconfig and ip... but I still don't see my VPN IP address, so I expose my case.

I use Tailscale as VPN service, so I edited this value:

What's the output of command ip -4 a show; typeset -p _p9k__vpn_ip_ips? Feel free to censor (replace) parts of the output but don't delete anything.

[logoff]

mmm, it's curious, I see VPN IP address there:

❯ command ip -4 a show; typeset -p _p9k__vpn_ip_ips
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000

       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
typeset -a _p9k__vpn_ip_ips=( 100.74.43.98 )

PD: only private addresses, nothing to worry or censor ;)

[romkatv]

Please post a screenshot of your prompt.

Then type unset POWERLEVEL9K_VPN_IP_CONTENT_EXPANSION; p10k reload and post another screenshot of your prompt.

[logoff]

First screenshot:

Second screenshot:

It worked! I see this comment now in the source code. May I ask what's going on exactly?

Thank you!

[romkatv]

May I ask what's going on exactly?

Here's the relevant part of your ~/.p10k.zsh:

# When on VPN, show just an icon without the IP address.
# Tip: To display the private IP address when on VPN, remove the next line.
typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_VPN_IP_CONTENT_EXPANSION=

It does what the comment says.

• When you are connected to VPN, prompt shows an icon. That would be the blue lock visible in your first screenshot. If you disconnect from VPN, this icon will disappear. You can try it with ip link set dev tailscale0 down.
• If you remove POWERLEVEL9K_VPN_IP_CONTENT_EXPANSION, then in addition to the icon you'll also see private network IP address when connected to VPN.

Most users don't care about the private IP address. They only want an indicator showing whether they are on VPN right now or not. Hence by default only the icon is shown.

Some users do care about the private IP address, hence the option to display it. A few users care about all private IP addresses (from multiple network interfaces) -- there is POWERLEVEL9K_VPN_IP_SHOW_ALL for that.

By the way, you prompt is misconfigured. When you ran p10k configure, there was a question that asked whether all icons fit between crosses. Configuration wizard wanted to know whether icons in your terminal font are oversized or not. It looked like this:

Your font is monospace, so the icons did fit between crosses just like on the screenshot above. However, you've answered that question in the negative. As the result your prompt now has extraneous whitespace and mangled segment separators in right prompt.

To fix this problem you can either run p10k configure and correctly answer the question about icon size, or manually replace POWERLEVEL9K_ICON_PADDING=moderate with POWERLEVEL9K_ICON_PADDING=none in ~/.p10k.zsh.

Thank you for sch explanation!! I corrected my setup and configuration and everything is perfect now.
