Add logging option
Some ISP's change subscriber's IP frequently but some reasons maybe users would like to know how often and how long they get/had that IP. Could you add an option to log for example the last 10 IP and their lease time please?
Unfortunately I don't really have much time to develop this application, and I'd rather stick to the old principle "write programs that do one thing and do it well" -- which, in the case of indicator-ip is to display the current IP address.
Having said that, I think you can accomplish what you want already: Just start indicator-ip with the -vvv switch to have it log debug messages, then redirect the output to a file:
indicator-ip -vvv > /tmp/indicator-ip.log
It will output "Fetching new external IP from ..." whenever the network status changes. If you then feed this file to grep you have your desired output -- almost, because I would need to tweak the application to log the new IP as well. Currently it only logs the source of the IP.
