How can I get the local IP address in Node.js?

Question

I'm not referring to

127.0.0.1

But rather the one that other computers would use to access the machine e.g.

192.168.1.6

var os = require('os');  var interfaces = os.networkInterfaces(); var addresses = []; for (var k in interfaces) {     for (var k2 in interfaces[k]) {         var address = interfaces[k][k2];         if (address.family === 'IPv4' && !address.internal) {             addresses.push(address.address);         }     } }  console.log(addresses);
