== Getting github.com ip-address ==
github uses an unconventional setup for it's ip-addresses. Simply using a hostname resolves to just one of their
possible servers. If you are creating firewall rules, you'll need to create them for each address range. Here is
some code I've used to do this successfully in the past.
{{ expand
| python script to get github address ranges
|
<source lang="python">
import sys
import json
import os
if sys.version_info[0] < 3:
    from urllib2 import urlopen
else:
    from urllib.request import urlopen
def get_github_urls():
    """
    Returns:
        list: ``[ '1.2.3.4/24', ... ]``
    """
    url = 'https://api.github.com/meta'
    reply = urlopen(url)
    if sys.version_info[0] < 3:
        status = reply.code
    else:
        status = reply.status
    if status != 200:
        raise RuntimeError('Unexpected reply: {}'.format(repr(reply)))
    # decode
    rawdata = reply.read().decode('utf-8')
    data = json.loads(rawdata)
    return data['git']
</source>
}}
