• 1 You need to connect to a remote site as stated. The URLS in that link do just that. Public IP is same as client IP, no? Do you want your domain name? – Steven Spungin Commented Feb 6, 2022 at 10:37

const { exec } = require('child_process')

exec('curl ip-adresim.app', function(error, stdout, stderr){
    if(error)
        return;
    console.log('your ip is :'+ stdout);
})

you could run a mand and get the output like curl or ping

There is no native way to get the public IP, in fact, there is no way to get it from your server, not even from the Linux mand, you have to ask an external server, and this package does exactly so with different servers.

I understand you don't want to ask an external library or an external server, but you have no choice.

Im suggesting using an external library, because it takes care of asking multiple servers instead of just one in the case that one goes offline

You can try this package it works perfectly

Here's a native JS request method：

fetch("https://ipecho.io/json")
  .then((response) => response.json())
  .then((data) => console.log(data.ip));

The access method encapsulated as a function is：

async function myip() {
  const res = await fetch("https://ipecho.io/json");
  const data = res.json();
  return data.ip;
}

const ip = await myip();
console.log(ip);

using promises,

async function myip() {
  return new Promise((resolve,reject) => {
    fetch('https://ipecho.io/json')
    .then(res => res.json())
    .then(res => resolve(res.ip))
    .catch(err => reject(err));        
  })
}

then invoke,

const ip = await myip();
