<p>There is no real point of doing getter/setters in python, you can't protect stuff anyway and if you need to execute some extra code when getting/setting the property look at the property() builtin (python -c 'help(property)')</p>

<p>A version I do not believe that has been posted yet. I tested with python 2.7 on Ubuntu 12.04.</p> <p>Found this solution at : <a href="http://code.activestate.com/recipes/439094-get-the-ip-address-associated-with-a-network-inter/">http://code.activestate.com/recipes/439094-get-the-ip-address-associated-with-a-net...

<p>This works on Linux and Windows on both Python 2 and 3. Requires a working local interface with a default route (0.0.0.0), but that's it - no routable net access necessary, doesn't try or need to be able to actually <em>get</em> anywhere else. (This combines a bunch of ideas from above with modifications to not need...

<p>This isn't very Pythonic, but it works reliably on Windows.</p> <pre><code>def getWinIP(version = 'IPv4'): import subprocess if version not in ['IPv4', 'IPv6']: print 'error - protocol version must be "IPv4" or "IPv6"' return None ipconfig = subprocess.check_output('ipconfig') my_ip ...

<p>To get the ip address you can use a <em>shell command</em> directly in <strong>python</strong>:</p> <pre><code>import socket, subprocess hostname = socket.gethostname() shell_cmd = "ifconfig | awk '/inet addr/{print substr($2,6)}'" proc = subprocess.Popen([shell_cmd], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True) (out, er...

<p>This will fetch your remote IP address</p> <pre><code>import urllib ip = urllib.urlopen('http://automation.whatismyip.com/n09230945.asp').read() </code></pre> <p>If you don't want to rely on someone else, then just upload something like this PHP script:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; ?&gt; ...

<p>whatismyip.org is better... it just tosses back the ip as plaintext with no extraneous crap.</p> <pre><code>import urllib ip = urllib.urlopen('http://whatismyip.org').read() </code></pre> <p>But yeah, it's impossible to do it easily without relying on something outside the network itself.</p>
