get just ip, with ip's json output and jq

ip -4 -json addr | jq --raw-output '.[] | select(.flags | contains(["LOOPBACK"]) | not) | .addr_info | .[0].local'

notes/errata

• i wrote this in like 5 minutes and didn't read the ip docs so there could be some glaring edge cases i'm not handling here

• if you want ipv6, swap -4 for -6

  ip -6 -json addr

  if you want both kinds of address, put neither flag.

  ip -json addr

• the main query gives you just the first address.

  if you want all addresses one-per-line without any JSON stuff, swap [0] for [] in the query, like this:

  .[] | select(.flags | contains(["LOOPBACK"]) | not) | .addr_info | .[].local

  if you want all addresses as JSON, do the above-mentioned change and also wrap the entire query in brackets, like this:

  [.[] | select(.flags | contains(["LOOPBACK"]) | not) | .addr_info | .[].local]
