Use `Tab` to switch interfaces, `f` to filter, `h` for help.\n\n## Installation\n\n### From crates.io (Recommended)\n\n```bash\ncargo install ifmon\n```\n\n### From source\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/coder3101/ifmon.git\ncd ifmon\ncargo build --release\n```\n\n### Pre-built Binaries\n\nPre-built binaries for Linux (x86_64, ARM64), macOS (Intel, Apple Silicon), and Windows are available on the [releases page](https://github.com/coder3101/ifmon/releases).\n\n## Usage\n\nSimply run:\n\n```bash\nifmon\n```\n\nThe interface displays three main sections:\n1. **Interface Info** - Shows name, type, MAC, MTU, state, and IP addresses\n2. **RX Graph** - Download speeds with current/peak/total statistics  \n3. **TX Graph** - Upload speeds with current/peak/total statistics\n\n### Keyboard Shortcuts\n\n| Key | Action |\n|-----|--------|\n| `Tab` | Switch to next interface |\n| `Shift+Tab` | Switch to previous interface |\n| `f` | Toggle between all interfaces / physical only |\n| `h` | Show/hide help screen |\n| `↑` / `↓` | Scroll through IP addresses (when multiple IPs) |\n| `q` or `Esc` | Quit application |\n\n### What Gets Displayed\n\n**Physical interfaces mode** (default):\n- Ethernet, WiFi, and other physical network adapters\n- Automatically filters out loopback (lo), tunnels, and virtual interfaces\n- Includes any interface with assigned IP addresses\n\n**All interfaces mode** (press `f`):\n- Shows everything including loopback, bridges, tunnels, etc.\n\nAll statistics update in real-time every 500ms with dynamic graph scaling.\n\n## Why ifmon?\n\nModern network monitoring tools are often complex or require root privileges. `ifmon` provides a simple, zero-configuration solution:\n\n- **No sudo required** - Works with user-level permissions\n- **Zero configuration** - Just run it, no setup needed\n- **Clean output** - Focus on what matters: current speeds and trends\n- **Terminal-native** - Perfect for remote SSH sessions or tmux setups\n- **Platform support**: Cross-platform via `netdev` crate\n\n## Requirements\n\n- **Rust**: 1.70 or higher (for building)\n- **Terminal**: Unicode and color support recommended\n- **OS**: Linux, macOS, or BSD systems\n\n## Building from Source\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/coder3101/ifmon.git\ncd ifmon\ncargo build --release\n```\n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details.\n\n## Author\n\n**Mohammad Ashar Khan** - [coder3101](https://github.com/coder3101)\n\n## Acknowledgments\n\nBuilt with excellent open-source tools:\n\n- **[ratatui](https://ratatui.rs/)** - Rust library for building rich terminal UIs\n- **[netdev](https://crates.io/crates/netdev)** - Cross-platform network interface statistics\n- **[crossterm](https://crates.io/crates/crossterm)** - Terminal manipulation library\n\nInspired by classic tools: `iftop`, `nethogs`, `bmon`\n\n## Similar Projects\n\n- **[bandwhich](https://github.com/imsnif/bandwhich)** - Per-process bandwidth monitor (requires root)\n- **[bottom](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom)** - System monitor with network stats\n- **[zenith](https://github.com/bvaisvil/zenith)** - htop-like system monitor\n\n`ifmon` focuses specifically on interface-level monitoring with zero configuration and no `sudo` access.\n\n---\n\n**Made with ❤️ by [Mohammad Ashar Khan](https://github.com/coder3101)**\n\nIf you find this useful, consider giving it a ⭐ on [GitHub](https://github.com/coder3101/ifmon)!\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcoder3101%2Fifmon","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcoder3101%2Fifmon","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcoder3101%2Fifmon/lists"}
