NetMonitor is a humble Netspeed replacement for gnome-shell.
Everybody loves screenshots, right?
As I couldn't find any real documentation for writing gnome-shell extensions, I based my code on better or worse snippets and tutorials found on internet. Some of the sources are mentioned below:
The extension lists available network devices using NMClient and uses GTop to get devices' statistics.
In order to install gsettings schema, copy org.gnome.shell.extensions.net-monitor.gschema.xml file to /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas [1] and invoke glib-compile-schemas on that direcory. Note that you need to be root or use sudo to do that:
# cp org.gnome.shell.extensions.net-monitor.gschema.xml /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas # glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
The NetMonitor@zdyb.tk directory should be copied to /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions or ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/:
# cp -r NetMonitor\@zdyb.tk /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions
or:
$ cp -r NetMonitor\@zdyb.tk ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/
