IpAddressAndNetworkInfoPascal is an Open Source project that aims to produce return a IP Address, external ou local, just been and simple unit for ObjectPascal (Lazarus, Delphi, etc).

It was just tested in Windows. Not tested in linux.

How to use

Just add the unit ip_address.pas to project.

• Project -> Add to Project and then locate and choose the file.

How to use | Example

Just call the method TNetworkAddressHelper.getExternalIpAddress() or TNetworkAddressHelper.getLocalIpAddresses(out info: TLocalNetworksInfos) to get the network info.

Open example at example folder, or the given example above:

program getIpAddress;

uses
  Classes, SysUtils, ip_address, Variants;

var
  netInfos: TLocalNetworksInfos;
  i: integer;

begin
  writeln('=== External IP Address ===');
  try
    writeln(TNetworkAddressHelper.getExternalIpAddress());
  except
    on e: Exception do
      writeln('ERROR: ' + e.Message);
  end;
  writeln('');
  writeln('=== Local Network Infos ===');
  writeln('');

  if (TNetworkAddressHelper.getLocalIpAddresses(netInfos)) then
    for i:=low(netInfos) to high(netInfos) do
        writeln(netInfos[i].IPAddress + ' | Adapter: ' +netInfos[i].Description); 
  
  readln;
end.
