FAQ

How is this different from `public-ip`?

This package only targets the Ipify service, while public-ip targets multiple services, is faster, and more resilient. Unless you run your own Ipify instance, you probably want public-ip instead.

ipify-cli - CLI for this module
internal-ip - Get your internal IPv4 or IPv6 address
