Query the computer's public IP address

Source: R/my-ip.R

It can use a DNS query to opendns.com, if method == "dns", or an HTTPS query to icanhazip.com, see https://github.com/major/icanhaz. The DNS query is much faster, the HTTPS query is secure.

my_ip(method = c("dns", "https"))

Arguments

method

Whether to use a DNS or HTTPS query.

Value

Computer's public IP address as a string.

Examples

my_ip()
#> [1] "3.145.237.107"
my_ip(method = "https")
#> [1] "3.145.237.107"
