Hi. I just noticed that three different Norwegian language codes were listed for Nutty on Weblate. Please remove https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/nutty/translations/no/ as it is obsolete and replaced by the nn and nb language codes.

AppCenter ran a bunch of tests on your appstream file. These are the results.

Warnings:

Most of these are fixed during the building process, but you should ensure they
are fixed in your code for future releases.

• "id" field should be "com.github.babluboy.nutty"

Hello good sir/mam. I'm getting these error while using your fine program and i am now raising this issue in hopes for a fix or at least a workaround. Thank you sir/mam.

Hi, I'd like to install this for fedora, but the flatpak address at the website is not working, and I can't find nutty listed on flathub. I tried the open suse 64bit rpm but it requires libnotify-tools, a package not available on fedora (which might be libnotify or libnotify-devel).
If there is not flatpak/snap package then I can always use the source code I guess. Any ideas on dependency packages for fedora?

Many thanks

Please make an option to autoselect the current device like gnome system monitor does.
The code to do this should be available.
If one wants to manually select, sure.. let them.

When sorting the devices page by Host IPs it is sorted in the following order:

1. 192.168.1.1
2. 192.168.1.10
3. 192.168.1.100
4. 192.168.1.11
5. 192.168.1.2

but it should be sorted in a more natural way

1. 192.168.1.1
2. 192.168.1.2
3. 192.168.1.10
4. 192.168.1.11
5. 192.168.1.100

There are No wireless connections on LUBUNTU 18.04. With all dependencies of nutty installed and nmap.

Blueprint for Nutty

You need a real time display. I want to see the speed (up and down) and the total of usage (up and down optional). I had asked you to put it in the wingpanel, but you said that it would limit the sw to one operating system. However, glipper and caffeine are able to show icons in the wingpanel and other os’s too. But maybe only an icon is available for the space provided.

Solution:
• Make a frameless window app that is always on top and is a similar size to the wingpanel in height and expands to show the amount of data preferred for display. This app communicates with Nutty.
• One can move the frameless window anywhere and it will be persistent
• One can double click on the frameless window to bring up Nutty.
• Right click on the frameless window will give preference and close options.
• Preference Dialog will have check boxes will have display options for:
• up speed
• down speed
• total (up down)
• up mb
• down mb
• total updown mb
• total day
• total week
• total month
• speed untis (kbs/Kbs/mbs)
• usage will switch to gigabites automatically when over 10 gb
▪ One can set the color and font size transparency of font
▪ Window expands to accommodate information
▪ One can set the transparency of frameless window.
▪ Phase 1 is single row, phase 2 is multi row
• Nutty will have a menu item to launch this and to add it to autostart (synapse has this option).
• Auto select for the data device so it always works (find the code for gnome system monitor)

In summary, this will be similar to a meter app in android. The frameless window can be placed over the wingpanel of any OS and it will work and is fully customizable. It is best to view the different net usage meter apps available on android and also the stock app. The UI and information has already been worked out by many people in these apps. Just copy it.

Network devices listing.

I have a device which used to have a static IP address, but it now it uses DHCP instead. Now that device gets listed twice, once with the old static IP address (which no device now has) and once with the dynamic IP address (which is correct). Both entries show as online in the Status column.

So I used the Forget Device command, but when I refresh, it comes back again!

Is there a config file somewhere that I can edit to remove the old entry?

Thanks,

David.

i am getting an error telling me xgettext is not installed and i am a bit confused as to what "meson build --prefix=/usr" means. mostly the "--prefix=/usr" Is this a line i must edit to my own computer or is this simply telling the code/computer to install into the "usr" folder.

this is the error im getting

po/meson.build:1:5: ERROR: Can not do gettext because xgettext is not installed.

thanks in advance.

It's a Network utility so it would be appropriate to add Network to your categories :)

It might also be appropriate to add System

Might want to check the freedesktop spec to see if others apply

I just paid $1 and installed Nutty via Elementary OS appcenter. When I run the app it stays stuck on the legal notice. Have rebooted but same problem.

When switching the views in the application, the animation is just too slow. This is inconsistent with the behaviour of other elementary apps where switching between views is pretty much instant.

The icon is bad looking and does not fit elementary's style. Try to make a new one. i can make you one too.

The top bar height looks so big. Seems it has a bigger font size and doesn't fit in current elementary UI.

I'm using a 1366*768 screen. And when I open the Nutty for the first time I can't agree the disclaimer beacuse the button is at the bottom side of the screen so I cant click. And no, the I resized the windows for the minimum but it wasn't enogh.

I have an (inactive) Intel-ethernet-interface and an active Ralink-wireless-interface

$ lspci | grep Network
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82579V Gigabit Network Connection (rev 04)
03:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT2790 Wireless 802.11n 1T/2R PCIe

• When I select the "My Info"-tab and select the "Wired (eno1)" it shows the correct data, except that also the "MAC address" is "NOT AVAILABLE".
• When I select the "Wireless (wlp3s0)" the "Interface Hardware" still shows "Intel Corporation 82579V Gigabit Network Connection (rev 04)", "MAC Address": "NOT AVAILABLE" and "IP Address": "Not Available", but the other data seems to be correct.

No nutty installed, no application created in menu, unable to locate executable to run from command line.

Do you think it is possible to create a docker image for development also docker image for running the application.

I used Linux Mint

Hi, I really appreciate your work , is a good application
but i don't use elementary OS
could you make a flatpak for nutty?
in this way, users can install the application in any linux distribution

please.
thank you.

Devices are listed as Last Seen = Today and then again as Last Seen = n days ago.

Also, I have edited the Device Name and Device Manufacturer fields for some devices, but when they are listed twice, the Last Seen = Today entry shows Not Available instead of my edited text. The duplicate item with Last Seen = n days ago shows the edited fields correctly.

KDEneon USer edition, updated. Just installed latest version of Nutty. I get no data from my ethernet port connection because it appears Nutty is only allowing 8 characters in the device name whereas my ethernet port has a 9 character name:

[WARNING 18:09:37.040949] nutty.vala:1248: Error encountered in execution of sync command [/sbin/ifconfig -a enp0s31f]: enp0s31f: error fetching interface information: Device not found

[snip]

If the required tools like nethogs, nmap, vnstat, etc are missing then raise the error and provide a button for installation of the same. This should be done when each of the CLI is invoked.

Not issue, just info:

📦 Nutty RPM package in testing repos. After few days it will be available in main Fedora repos.

How to install:

sudo dnf install nutty

Run:

com.github.babluboy.nutty

Thank you. 🙏

@babluboy Congratulations on your great work on Nutty!

Is It possible you to add support to Arch Linux? Some features aren't working...

In this example 192.168.10.10 and 192.168.10.57 show in the xml output but not in the device list (see attached). For these two IPs there is no vendor shown against the MAC in the xml. If vendor name is not available it should not prevent the device from showing in the Devices tab.

Also the host where nutty is running (cassie) shows MAC and Manufacturer unavailable in the Devices tab. The corresponding xml entry says <status state="up" reason="localhost-response" reason_ttl="0"/> but no MAC info. I've noticed in the past that nmap doesn't print the MAC of the host it is running on, I guess this is the reason. (In my scripts I've had to resort to picking apart the output from ifconfig -a or ip add show to get the localhost's MAC).

Use SQLite DB instead of storing data in config files

I've unfortunately had to reject your recent submission to publish Nutty in AppCenter because of the screenshot in use.

Screenshots should show just your application, not your whole desktop.

Otherwise, it’s impossible to translate it idiomatically in several Romance languages; for example:

%d days ago
Hace %d días

instead of the current

days ago
días atrás

Seems to have worked my first day, but not other days.
Please test over several days on usb tether by android phone.

can't find libgranite4

Hi. The Device list is not showing up. Is there something I can do?

On my network are various devices which are also discoverable with "nmap -sP 192.168.178.0/24" or a simple "arp" but nutty says "No data found for wlp3s0".
I'm running the latest version (0.9) form elementaryOS Appcenter.

Thanks for your nice work

Please consider adding make uninstall

thanks

Thank you for what looks like a wonderful utility. I would very much like to use it. I've exhausted my technical ability to so so, though. I've tried the apt install route, with out success, I've tried a snap package without success, and I've tried flatpak until I learned that does not work. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that I've tried hard and with diligence before writing you.

I've decided to try from scratch. When I try to add your repository using synaptics package manager, this is what I get:
The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/bablu-boy/nutty/ubuntu focal Release' does not have a Release file.

After a lot of googling, the suggestion was to write the owner and ask for help if you get this, so that is what I'm doing :-)

I'm sure you're very busy, so I hope this is easy to solve, and that it would help others too. I copy below details about my system. I'll be happy to provide any other info that would help.

Regards,
Schalk

Create a check for vnstat and manually create the database if no default database is found.

Update the artifacts and executable to com.github.babluboy.nutty to follow RDNN standards.

Hi , i tried to install Nutty in flatpak but is not available , could you fix this incovenient?
please ,

IMHO, theming the header to make it green, same as the icon would give the app a feel of uniformity

If you go into Elementary settings to enable larger text (Universal Access -> Display -> Text Size -> Larger), which people with limited vision or higher resolution monitors need, Nutty looks less than ideal:

As you can see, the placeholder for the searchbox is truncated.

Increased font sizes are a documented feature of ElementaryOS and used by quite a few people who have limited vision, or for other reasons, need larger font rendering. It would be nice if Nutty accommodated that more fluidly.

In the "Usage" Tab in the "current app" section:

See screenshot:

Add features on the Device listing for:
1- Remove a listed device
2- Update details about a device like Manufacture Name, Device Name, etc

Not all ISPs start billing on the first of month. Would be helpful to see a custom date range to monitor network usage for that period.

It should work in the background, so you can close down the nutty application. Basically a scheduled job executes in the background after a fixed interval and searches for any new device which has not been discovered and registered in the nutty database of devices.
Another way to test this is to forget a device in nutty and then see if you get a notification when that device is spotted on the network on the scheduled background job.
There were some changes in Juno on notifications and the way they are handled, so I was wondering if it is working on other distros.

I "forgot" a device and closed the application window. I've not had any notifications so far.

I'm on Pop!_OS 19.04 (based on Ubuntu 19.04) which uses GNOME 3.32.

Thanks - I will check if the notification works on elementary. Will raise a different issue to track this
