Informations about the package publicip
PublicIP
A simple PHP library to get your public IP address reliably and fast.
This library uses dig
or HTTP requests to obtain the public IP address of the current machine by utilizing publicly
available whoami services.
It comes with an opinionated default configuration to use the fastest and most reliable fetchers and providers. However, it also includes a flexible API that allows you to use different fetchers and different providers.
🚀 Installation
📚 Usage
Easiest way to get the public IP address of the current machine is to use the PublicIP::get()
method.
These methods return the IP address as a string
or null
if the fetcher fails. No exceptions are thrown.
If you want to use a specific fetcher, or a specific provider, you can use the PublicIPv4::finder()->fetch()
method.
This method gives you more control, but you will need to manage exceptions on your own.
Advanced Usage
You can also use a Fetcher
directly to get the IP address.
Note that this returns null instead of throwing an exception if the fetcher fails.
📚 Use in command line
You can also use this library in the command line by using the publicip
command.
It's recommended to install the library globally to use it in the command line.
Then you can use the publicip
command to get the public IP address of the current machine.
🏃 Performance
If you are sure that your machine has dig
installed, you can speed up the process by setting the isSupported
property to true
.
It works both ways; if you are sure that your machine does not have dig
installed, you can set it to false
to
prevent unnecessary checks.
If you use the CurlFetcher
or FileGetContentsFetcher
, you can set the forceHTTP
property to true
to use HTTP instead of HTTPS.
Some whoami services do not support HTTPS anyway as they are meant to be used in scripts like this curl ifconfig.co
.

📋 TODO
Contributions are welcome!
- use Symfony ExecutableFinder to find dig
- use Symfony Process to run dig
- PSR-18 HTTP fetcher with a way to choose psr compatible client so other tools can monitor outgoing requests
