I need an ip address of a local host in order to use it in an url string. I want to connect to other computer by using port forwarding. The connecting will be written in a bash script.

So, is there a way to generically parse an ip address of a localhost?

有帮助吗?

解决方案

Translated into an IP address, commonly a localhost is always designated as 127.0.0.1. So generally, you can consider the loop back address same for every machine.

To get address other than 127.0.0.1 you may use the following bash command: hostname -i.

One of many solutions:

localhost_ip_address=`ping -c 1 localhost | head -n 1 | cut -d'(' -f2 | cut -d')' -f1`
