Get network address everytime I run mix phx.server

Sometimes I need to share network address of my machine with my colleague which have access to same network(same wifi). and its really useful if he can connect to my machine and perform queries/requests from their machine eg when I run a vue project, it prints:

Compiled successfully in 16911ms                                                                                                                                                          4:55:26 PM


  App running at:
  - Local:   http://localhost:8080/ 
  - Network: http://192.16*.***.**:8080/

and I can share this network address with my colleagues and they can access web app on my machine. I am wondering if I can get this network address in phoenix app. Thanks

This is how I got it working(credit goes to):

{ip_string, 0} = System.cmd "hostname", ["-I"]
network_address = List.first String.split(ip_string)

This is the default currently. It’s changed on master on github to localhost only however.

Given the phoenix generators were just changed to bind to localhost only (and therefore only to a single interface) I doubt this can make it into phoenix itself. You could however alias phx.server and run a custom mix task after phoenix started doing your own logging.
