a function to get IP addresses of interfaces

Skaperen · May-30-2022, 04:22 AM

i am looking around for a function that can return IP addresses of named interfaces, supporting both IPv4 and IPv6. a function that can return a list of interface names is a plus.

Could see if netifaces module would work for you.

it looks like it should work. it would be better than running the "ip" command in Linux and parsing its output. that, plus it is a small implementation in C that could help me learn the basics of using C within Python.
