Crate getip

Asynchronous library for retrieving IP address information

For retrieval of a single address, simply use get_ip and set appropriate parameters.

In case a finer-grained control over the source of addresses is required, individual Providers on which get_ip is based can be found in gip (for global) and hostip (for local).

Module libc_getips contains a low-level function to receive all addresses directly from the interfaces/adapters.

Modules

gip

Implementations of Provider that receive global IP addresses from online services. This is an asynchronous rewrite of dalance/gip.

hostip

Implementations of Provider that receive local IP addresses of the machine from libc APIs and command-line helper programs (if available).

libc_getips

Receive IP addresses of NICs with libc APIs.

Enums

Error

Error type of IP retrieval methods.

IpScope

Scope of the IP to be received.

IpType

Type of global address.

Traits

Provider

Any IP Provider.

Functions

get_ip

Receive a IP address of family ip_type that has a scope of ip_scope on an interface named nic.

Type Aliases

Result

A Result alias where the Err variant is getip::Error.
