Ipify-Android

Ipify allows you to get current public IP address when connected to internet in real-time

Add Dependency

Use Gradle:

Step 1: Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
    repositories {
      ...
      maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

Note: In New Android studio updates, now allProjects block has been removed from root build.gradle file. So you must add this repository to your root settings.gradle as below:

dependencyResolutionManagement {
  repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
  repositories {
      ...
      maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
  }
}

Step 2: Add the dependency in your module’s (e.g. app or any other) build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'com.github.chintan369:Ipify:<latest-version>'
}

How do I use Ipify-Android?

Step 1

Initialize Ipify in your application class of Android app’s onCreate() method

public class MyApplication : Application() {
    ...
    
    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        
        Ipfy.init(this) // this is a context of application
        //or you can also pass IpfyClass type to get either IPv4 address only or universal address IPv4/v6 as
        Ipfy.init(this,IpfyClass.IPv4) //to get only IPv4 address
        //and
        Ipfy.init(this,IpfyClass.UniversalIP) //to get Universal address in IPv4/v6
    }
    ...
}

Step 2

Observe IP address at anywhere in your application. This function will provide you an observer to observe the IP address while changing the network connection from mobile data to Wi-Fi or any other Wi-Fi.

    Ipfy.getInstance().getPublicIpObserver().observe(this, { ipData ->
          ipData.currentIpAddress // this is a value which is your current public IP address, null if no/lost internet connection
          ipData.lastStoredIpAddress // this is a previous IP address while network lost/reconnected and current IP address assigned to null/new one
    })

This is how you can get a public IP address without doing any more code! ?
