get server ip from response of httpx get

As the title says, if I do resp=httpx.get(url) how do I get the IP from which the url was resolved?

There's This question about how to do it with requests but the same methods don't appear to exist in the httpx objects.

Solution

Empirically, you can do it with an exquisitely ugly incantation like as follows.

Do note that this involves digging into no less than 6 underscore-private attribute of the response stream, so it could stop working at any time when you upgrade httpx. (This worked for me with httpx 0.23.0.)

import httpx

with httpx.Client() as hc:
    r = hc.get("https://httpbin.org/get")
    peername = r.stream._stream._httpcore_stream._stream._connection._network_stream._sock.getpeername()
    print(r.json())
    print(peername)

This prints out

{'args': {}, 'headers': {'Accept': '*/*', 'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate', 'Host': 'httpbin.org', 'User-Agent': 'python-httpx/0.23.0', 'X-Amzn-Trace-Id': 'Root=...'}, 'origin': '....', 'url': 'https://httpbin.org/get'}
('44.207.168.240', 443)
