HL Public IP script

[Mrinj]

Hi,

Until now I've used this script for the public IP change on HL:

Code:

ip_old = grp.getvalue('10/1/253')

require("socket.http")
myip = (socket.http.request("http://whatismyip.org/"))
ip = myip:match("[%font%-weight%: 600;\"%>](%d+%.%d+%.%d+%.%d+)")

if ip ~= ip_old then
 subject = 'HL has New Public IP'
 message = ip
 Email('my@email.com', subject, message)
end

grp.checkwrite('10/1/253', ip,dt.string)

Unfortunately whatismyip.org is closed and the script is not working.

Then I created this one:

Code:

ip_old = grp.getvalue('10/1/253')

require("socket.http")
ip = (socket.http.request("https://api.ipify.org"))

if ip ~= ip_old then
 subject = 'HL has New Public IP'
 message = ip
 Email('my@email.com', subject, message)
end

grp.checkwrite('10/1/253', ip, dt.string)

The csript is working in SciTE (or similar) in this version:

Code:

require("socket.http")
ip = (socket.http.request("https://api.ipify.org"))
print (ip)

but NOT in HL.

What do I do wrong?!?

Try this:

Code:

require('socket.http')
socket.http.TIMEOUT = 5
local data = socket.http.request('http://api.ipify.org')

if not data then
return
log('No response getting IP')
end

ip_old = storage.get('ip_old')
if ip_old == nil then
storage.set('ip_old', data)
end

if data ~= ip_old then
storage.set('ip_old', data)
log('IP changed, new IP is: ' .. data)
end

Working perfect.
Thank you FatMax!!!

You can remove the require(‘json’) because the script does not use it..

BR,

Removed.

It was there for other purposes of the script..

Code:

require('socket.http')
socket.http.TIMEOUT = 5
local data = socket.http.request('http://api.ipify.org')

if not data then
return
log('No response getting IP')
end

ipPublic_old = storage.get('ipPublic_old')
if ipPublic_old == nil then
storage.set('ipPublic_old', data)
end

if data ~= ipPublic_old then
storage.set('ipPublic_old', data)
log('IP changed, new IP is: ' .. data)
end

if data ~= ipPublic_old then
   subject = 'IP Pública'
  message = 'La nueva ip pública es: ' .. data
  mail('xxxxxxxxxxxx', subject, message)
  storage.set('ipPublic_old', data)
end

Hi, I'm using this script and lately it was working fine but now I get notifications every little time (1-2 hours) and the IP has not changed. I receive an email notifying that the IP has changed but it appears blank, and after 60 seconds a second notification arrives with the same IP that I had previously.

Maybe run it less often, they might implement some limits.

Did you solve the problem?
