How to get system hostname in python

Question

My host is 10.13.17.18 but my host name is getting some other value

import socket
print(socket.gethostname())
print(socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname()))

Is there any solution in python to get hostname

You can try `platform` package and `hostname = platform.node()` — Bijay Regmi, Apr 13 '23 at 13:19
