# Ipify [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/code-lever/ipify-gem.png)](https://travis-ci.org/code-lever/ipify-gem) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/code-lever/ipify-gem.png)](https://codeclimate.com/github/code-lever/ipify-gem) [![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/ipify.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/rb/ipify)

An unofficial [ipify](http://ipify.org) Ruby gem.  Get your external IP address.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby

gem 'ipify'

```

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install ipify

## Usage

Pretty simple, you can either ignore exceptions or deal with them:

```

require 'ipify'

# deal w/errors!

begin

  ip = Ipify.ip!

  # => '1.2.3.4'

rescue Ipify::ConnectionError

  # failed to connect to the service

rescue Ipify::ServiceError

  # ipify.org is having issues!

rescue

  # something else...

end

# ignore errors!

ip = Ipify.ip

# => '1.2.3.4'

```

## Development
