With Django docs here, You can use: 

domain = request.get_host()
# domain = 'localhost:8000'

import re
import subprocess


def get_ip_machine():
    process = subprocess.Popen(['ifconfig'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

    ip_regex = re.compile('(((1?[0-9]{1,2})|(2[0-4]\d)|(25[0-5]))\.){3}((1?[0-9]{1,2})|(2[0-4]\d)|(25[0-5]))')

    return ip_regex.search(process.stdout.read(), re.MULTILINE).group()

request.build_absolute_uri('/')

or you could try

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

If you want to know exactly the IP address that the development server is started with, you can use sys.argv for this. The Django development server uses the same trick internally to restart the development server with the same arguments

Start development server:

manage.py runserver 127.0.0.1:8000

Get address in code:

if settings.DEBUG:
    import sys
    print sys.argv[-1]

This prints 127.0.0.1:8000
