gip

Get your public IP from the command line.

From the same collection as show-my-ip, a Firefox extension that does just that.

Usage

Type the following in a command line:

gip

And as a result, your public IP is returned.

Installation

You can either use a precompiled binary from the release section, or you can build it yourself by doing the following, assuming you have a working Go environment:

go get -u github.com/TwinProduction/gip

Custom API URL

By default, this uses my website's API - https://twinnation.org/api/v1/ip

Want to use a different API for getting the IP?

No problem, all you have to do is set the GIP_API_URL environment variable to the API of your choice.

Here are some APIs you can use:

• http://ip-api.com/line?fields=query
• https://ip.seeip.org
