in reply to How do I get the local internet IP address?
This is probably the least portable version because it uses Linux-specific data structures, but for the fun of it and for completeness, I'll post it:
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; require 'sys/ioctl.ph'; use Socket; my %interfaces; my $max_addrs = 30; socket(my $socket, AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0) or die "socket: $!"; { my $ifreqpack = 'a16a16'; my $buf = pack($ifreqpack, '', '') x $max_addrs; my $ifconf = pack('iP', length($buf), $buf); # This does the actual work ioctl($socket, SIOCGIFCONF(), $ifconf) or die "ioctl: $!"; my $len = unpack('iP', $ifconf); substr($buf, $len) = ''; %interfaces = unpack("($ifreqpack)*", $buf); unless (keys(%interfaces) < $max_addrs) { # Buffer was too small $max_addrs += 10; redo; } } for my $addr (values %interfaces) { $addr = inet_ntoa((sockaddr_in($addr))[1]); } use Data::Dumper; print Dumper \%interfaces;
The output is:
$VAR1 = { 'eth0:1' => '10.153.26.128', 'eth0' => 'x.y.z.128', 'eth0:3' => '10.153.84.128', 'eth0:4' => '10.153.88.2', 'eth0:2' => 'x.y.z.62', 'lo' => '127.0.0.1' };
(I've stripped the public addresses.)
I've successfully tested it on Debian etch and sarge.
