I'm trying to make my own conky script, and I'm having some trouble with a script I'm using. The script is this one. This is the problematic part:
{
name="diskio_read",
arg="/dev/nvme0n1",
max=100,
width=85,
height=110,
y=505,
x=25,
nb_values=100,
bg_colour={{0,0x000000,0}},
fg_bd_colour = { {0,0x49a835,1}, },
foreground=false,
fg_bd_size=0.7,
bg_bd_size=0.5,
},
The error it generates:
conky: llua_do_call: function conky_main execution failed: attempt to compare number with nil
The thing is that I have enabled 
format_human_readable = true, thus causing diskio_read to return a value with unit. Now, I have enabled format_human_readable because in I use ${mem} and ${memmax}.
My question is if there is any way to convert any number or variable (for example, ${mem}) from a raw number to a human readable number. That way, I can keep format_human_readable = false and avoid having troubles with the lua scripts.
The other way around would be to convert from a human readable number to a raw number, and instead leave format_human_readable = true and modify the value that I give to the scripts.
Here are the scripts and configs:
**conky.conf**
**loadAll.lua**
**bar.lua**
**graph.lua**
this is how the script looks as is:
