Obtain IP address of Logic Machine

[baggins]

Hi,

In some of my scripts it would be useful to know the IP address of the Logic Machine on which they run.
Now I use something I found somewhere:

Code:

require('socket')
local s = socket.udp()
s:setpeername("192.168.1.1",80)
local ip, _ = s:getsockname()
log(ip)

I don't know how it works, but it works (and does not require a connection to the IP address in the script. As a matter of fact that IP address is irrelevant).
Is there a more elegant solution?
Thanks

Code:

require('ifinfo')
ip = ifinfo().eth0.inetaddr

Code:

require('ifinfo')
ip = ifinfo().eth0.inetaddr

Thanks, very neat!

Now where can one find documentation on this kind of stuff?

This is an internal library used by system config, so it's not documented. Our documentation is available at http://openrb.com/docs/
