    This Python code provides recipes to programmatically obtain information about a system including the IP address, hostname, local time and date, and timezone offset. It uses the ifconfig, socket, and time modules to retrieve the IP address, hostname, and timestamp data respectively. The code prints out the IP address, hostname from the system and /etc/hostname file, current local time, date, and timezone offset in hours.

    Get IP Address
    from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
    cmd = "ifconfig eth0 | grep 'inet addr:' | cut -d: -f2 | awk '{ print $1}'"

    p = Popen(cmd, shell=True,stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)

    ip_address, err = p.communicate()

    # use string command to remove new line character

    ip_address = ip_address[:-1]

    print "IP address: %s" % ip_address

    Get HostName from system


    import socket
    host_name = socket.gethostname()
    print "Host name: %s" % host_name

    Get HostName from file


    fout = open('/etc/hostname', 'r')
    HostName = fout.read() #print entire file
    fout.close()
    x = len(HostName)
    print HostName[0:x-1] # Removes end of file characters

    Get Local Time and Date


    import time
    # Get TimeZone Offset
    offset = time.timezone if (time.localtime().tm_isdst == 0) else time.altzone
    offset = offset / 60 / 60 * -1
    print "TimeZone Offset: " + str(offset)

    # 24 hour time format


    print ("Local Time: " + time.strftime("%H:%M:%S"))

    # dd/mm/yyyy format
    print ("Date: " + time.strftime("%d/%m/%Y"))

    Get TimeZone Offset


    offset = time.timezone if (time.localtime().tm_isdst == 0) else time.altzone
    offset = offset / 60 / 60 * -1
    # print "TimeZone Offset: " + str(offset)
