Get your own ip address
Project description
getownip - A python script to determine your ip address
Example:
import getownip
print("public IPv4: " + getownip.get(getownip.Public, getownip.IPv4))
print("local IPv6: " + getownip.get(getownip.Local, getownip.IPv6))
To retrieve a local ip address, a default route must exist. Otherwise, None is returned.
When retrieving a public ip address, a random one of a list of servers is accessed. Currently, the following list of servers is used:
| service | IPv4 | IPv6 |
|---|---|---|
| getmyip.dev | yes | yes |
| icanhazip.com | yes | yes |
| ident.me | yes | yes |
| ipaddress.com | yes | |
| ipify.org | yes | yes |
| ipinfo.io | yes | yes |
| ipy.ch | yes | |
| l2.io | yes | |
| meineipv6.de | yes | yes |
| my-ip.io | yes | yes |
| seeip.org | yes | yes |
| tnedi.me | yes | yes |
If one of these services fails to answer, another one will be tried until every service has failed. In this case, the last occurred exception will be thrown.
