I use this:
#conf.py
ifconfig = '/sbin/ifconfig'
iface = 'eth0'
telltale = 'inet addr:'
#addr.py
import commands
from conf import ifconfig, iface, telltale
def my_addr():
cmd = '%s %s' % (ifconfig, iface)
output = commands.getoutput(cmd)
inet = output.find(telltale)
if inet >= 0:
start = inet + len(telltale)
end = output.find(' ', start)
addr = output[start:end]
else:
addr = ''
