Persistent SQLite network interface data usage & bandwidth monitor

Network Data Usage Monitor is a desktop Linux network interface bandwidth accounting tool and real-time throughput viewer. An independent Linux alternative to network usage history utilities such as NetworkUsageView and vnStat, it polls kernel /proc/net/dev and /sys/class/net//statistics/ counters and records session, hourly, and daily byte and packet deltas into a persistent local SQLite database.

Key Features:

  • Persistent SQLite Usage History: Automatically logs per-interface RX and TX byte and packet deltas by session, hour, and calendar day while cleanly handling kernel reboots, driver resets, and 32-bit counter wraparounds.
  • Live Interface Telemetry: Displays real-time download and upload throughput, link state, MTU, hardware address, packet rates, and error/drop counters across Ethernet, Wi-Fi, virtual bridge, and loopback interfaces.
  • Configurable Data Cap & 30-Day Forecast: Tracks cumulative usage against a customizable monthly data allowance with color-coded progress bars and extrapolated daily and 30-day bandwidth projections.
  • Visual Usage Charts & Export: Renders historical RX/TX usage bar charts and live throughput waveforms, and exports usage histories to CSV and JSON.
