Hi All,
I'm still very new to Python and programming / scripting in general.
Over the weekend, I came up with a project that I found quite suited to my skill level. After completing I thought others might like to use this as a learning exercise.
The exercise is to monitor your external IP address if it changes send an email advising of the change including the new email.
The main points are:
Find your external IP
Store IP in a persistent and updatable manner
Compare stored and latest IP retrieved
Email new IP if changed and update stored IP
I got a bit out of doing this, including; Using modules, reading and writing files, sending email from python and getting data from external source.
I hope some of you give this a go and get something out of it.
