Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? If so, please describe the problem.

Cannot specify machine identifiers via stats:

  • Full hostname
  • Selected segment(s) of hostname delimited by .
  • IPv4 address per LAN/WLAN interface
  • IPv6 address per LAN/WLAN interface
  • Local network domain name

Describe the feature / solution to your problem you'd like
The ability to display such items via a theme would be useful in data centers, rack mount setups, or wherever else many machines may be in use.

Describe alternatives you've considered / and or tested
This could be implemented via custom stats, but would be nice to have native support.

  • Revision of this project: Release 3.3.4
  • OS with version: Kubuntu 22.04
  • Python version: 3.10.12

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the theme stats implementation and the existing custom-stats path, then inspect how system information is collected for the simulator and supported Linux environments. Done means themes can display the hostname, selected hostname segments, per-interface IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, and the local network domain name.
