show ip per osd

[damdy-cash]

Hi all,

I try to find a way to show with the EG OSD Plugin the outside IP of my PC.
What I have found is that pice of code:

Code: Select all

import httplib
def myIP():
    verb = HTTPConnection('www.whatismyip.com')
    verb.request('GET', '/automation/n09230945.asp')
    antw = verb.getresponse()
    html = antw.read()

    return html

Seems to do at least the starting part of that, but I can't find the way to show the received IP via the OSD- plugin.

Any proposal how that could work?

Many thanks in advance and cheers Volker

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1166">
    <Macro Name="Show my IP" Expanded="True">
        <Action>
            EventGhost.PythonScript(u"import httplib\nverb = httplib.HTTPConnection('www.whatismyip.com')\nverb.request('GET', '/automation/n09230945.asp')\nantw = verb.getresponse()\neg.globals.myIP = antw.read()\n")
        </Action>
        <Action>
            EventGhost.ShowOSD(u'My IP is: {eg.globals.myIP}\n', u'0;-24;0;0;0;700;0;0;0;1;0;0;2;32;Arial', (255, 255, 255), (0, 0, 0), 4, (0, 0), 0, 3.0, False)
        </Action>
    </Macro>
</EventGhost>
