How to tell if AWS Elastic Network Interface (ENI) has a public IP address using Python boto?

I am auditing security groups and right now my task is to find ENIs with no public IP addresses with inbound security group rules that reference public IP addresses.

I have code that iterates over ENIs and looks at the Security Groups attached to each one and I'm hoping to recycle that. Here's that code:

used_sgs = {}
enis = ec2_conn.get_all_network_interfaces()
for eni in enis:
    eni_sgs = eni.groups
    for sg in eni_sgs:
        sgn = sg.name
        if sgn not in used_sgs:
           used_sgs[sgn] = 0
        used_sgs[sgn]+=1

Is there an attribute I can sniff to see if an ENI has a public IP? Or do I have to take some other route (iterate over instances, or grab the ENI attachment, or something else)?

eni.publicIp

Not all enis have publicIp associated with them. So check if publicIp attribute exists and then get that value

for eni in enis:
  if hasattr(eni, 'publicIp') and eni.publicIp:
    print eni.id, eni.publicIp
