Python exposes a socket library that allows us to perform networking tasks such as getting the IP Address as well as getting the Hostname of our system.
import socket
try:
host_name = socket.gethostname()
host_ip = socket.gethostbyname(host_name)
print(f"Hostname: {host_name}")
print(f"IP : {host_ip}")
except:
print("Could not get the IP Address or Hostname")
The above code imports the socket library and then runs a safe block of code.
We need to first get the hostname and then use that to get the IP Address.
