Preface

Traffic information can be viewed directly in /proc/net/dev. The program implemented by the author uses the command:

python net.py interface

Copy after login

interface is the name of the network card, what network card to use, what network cards the computer has, you can use

sudo ifconfig

Copy after login

Check it out.

The program implemented in Python is as follows:

# coding:utf-8
import sys, time, os

def get_net_data(interface):
  for line in open(&#39;/proc/net/dev&#39;, &#39;r&#39;):

def convert_bytes_to_string(b):
  cnt = 0
  while b >= 1024.0:
    b = float(b) / 1024.0
    cnt += 1
  return &#39;%.2f%s&#39;%(b,_unit_[cnt])

if __name__ == &#39;__main__&#39;:
  interface = sys.argv[1]
  while True:
    net_data = get_net_data(interface)
    receive_data_bytes = net_data[0]
    transmit_data_bytes = net_data[8]
    os.system(&#39;clear&#39;)
    print &#39;Interface:%s  -> Receive Data: %s  Transmit Data: %s&#39;%(interface, convert_bytes_to_string(receive_data_bytes), convert_bytes_to_string(transmit_data_bytes))
    time.sleep(1)

Copy after login

The program entry is from if Starting from name=='main', first get the interface through the parameters, and then call the get_net_data() function to get the traffic information, followed by some data processing.
