Can I get ip address inside my docker container?

Question

How to get container ip address inside this container?

\'docker inspect $hostname ...\' not suitable, because I don\'t share /var/run/docker.sock host file to contai

Answer 1

I can find the IP address with

hostname -i

Of course, that may not be completely accurate if there is more than one interface.

Edit

Note: According to the hostname man page, hostname -i uses DNS to resolve the ip address, where hostname -I displays all the addresses except loopback, does not depend on DNS, and is recommended.

In all my Docker containers, -i and -I return the same results (but this is not the case on my desktop).
