Code Purpose

A simple script to look up and save machine ip address.

Installation and Usage

Useage

cgao$ python ip.py 

Output

A file 'myIP.txt' will be saved in current directory.

Suggestions

You can use crontab to make this script running in the backgroud at a preferred frequency (like 10 minutes).

You'd better change the saved filename with absolute path, otherwise it will be saved in the execution path, not the executed file's path.

For example, if you run the code like:

cgao$ pwd
/Users/cgao
cgao$ python ~/github/IP/ip.py
