环境变量也可以提供有用的方法——Windows上的COMPUTERNAME，大多数现代Unix/Linux shell上的HOSTNAME。

我使用这些作为InetAddress.getLocalHost(). gethostname()的“补充”方法，因为正如一些人指出的那样，该函数不能在所有环境中工作。

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("hostname")是另一个可能的补充。在这个阶段，我还没有用过它。

import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.net.UnknownHostException;

// try InetAddress.LocalHost first;
//      NOTE -- InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName() will not work in certain environments.
try {
    String result = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();
    if (StringUtils.isNotEmpty( result))
        return result;
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
    // failed;  try alternate means.
}

// try environment properties.
//      
String host = System.getenv("COMPUTERNAME");
if (host != null)
    return host;
host = System.getenv("HOSTNAME");
if (host != null)
    return host;

// undetermined.
return null;

在Java中获取当前计算机主机名的最方便的方法如下:

import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.net.UnknownHostException;

public class getHostName {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws UnknownHostException {
        InetAddress iAddress = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
        String hostName = iAddress.getHostName();
        //To get  the Canonical host name
        String canonicalHostName = iAddress.getCanonicalHostName();

        System.out.println("HostName:" + hostName);
        System.out.println("Canonical Host Name:" + canonicalHostName);
    }
}

hostName == null;
Enumeration<NetworkInterface> interfaces = NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces();
{
    while (interfaces.hasMoreElements()) {
        NetworkInterface nic = interfaces.nextElement();
        Enumeration<InetAddress> addresses = nic.getInetAddresses();
        while (hostName == null && addresses.hasMoreElements()) {
            InetAddress address = addresses.nextElement();
            if (!address.isLoopbackAddress()) {
                hostName = address.getHostName();
            }
        }
    }
}

正如其他人所指出的，根据DNS解析获取主机名是不可靠的。

不幸的是，由于这个问题在2018年仍然相关，我想与大家分享我的网络独立解决方案，并在不同的系统上进行一些测试。

下面的代码尝试执行以下操作:

在Windows上 通过System.getenv()读取环境变量COMPUTERNAME。 执行hostname.exe并读取响应 在Linux上 通过System.getenv()读取HOSTNAME环境变量 执行主机名并读取响应 读取/etc/hostname(要做到这一点，我执行cat，因为代码段已经包含要执行和读取的代码。不过，简单地阅读文件会更好)。

代码:

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    String os = System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase();

    if (os.contains("win")) {
        System.out.println("Windows computer name through env:\"" + System.getenv("COMPUTERNAME") + "\"");
        System.out.println("Windows computer name through exec:\"" + execReadToString("hostname") + "\"");
    } else if (os.contains("nix") || os.contains("nux") || os.contains("mac os x")) {
        System.out.println("Unix-like computer name through env:\"" + System.getenv("HOSTNAME") + "\"");
        System.out.println("Unix-like computer name through exec:\"" + execReadToString("hostname") + "\"");
        System.out.println("Unix-like computer name through /etc/hostname:\"" + execReadToString("cat /etc/hostname") + "\"");
    }
}

public static String execReadToString(String execCommand) throws IOException {
    try (Scanner s = new Scanner(Runtime.getRuntime().exec(execCommand).getInputStream()).useDelimiter("\\A")) {
        return s.hasNext() ? s.next() : "";
    }
}

不同操作系统的结果:

macOS 10 .13.2

Unix-like computer name through env:"null"
Unix-like computer name through exec:"machinename
"
Unix-like computer name through /etc/hostname:""

OpenSuse 13.1

Unix-like computer name through env:"machinename"
Unix-like computer name through exec:"machinename
"
Unix-like computer name through /etc/hostname:""

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 这个有点奇怪，因为echo $HOSTNAME返回正确的主机名，但是System.getenv("HOSTNAME")没有:

Unix-like computer name through env:"null"
Unix-like computer name through exec:"machinename
"
Unix-like computer name through /etc/hostname:"machinename
"

编辑:根据legolas108, System.getenv("HOSTNAME")在Ubuntu 14.04上工作，如果你在执行Java代码之前运行export HOSTNAME。

Windows 7

Windows computer name through env:"MACHINENAME"
Windows computer name through exec:"machinename
"

Windows 10

Windows computer name through env:"MACHINENAME"
Windows computer name through exec:"machinename
"

机器名称已被替换，但我保留了大写和结构。注意在执行主机名时额外的换行符，在某些情况下可能必须考虑到它。

环境变量也可以提供有用的方法——Windows上的COMPUTERNAME，大多数现代Unix/Linux shell上的HOSTNAME。

if (host != null)
    return host;
host = System.getenv("HOSTNAME");
if (host != null)
    return host;

// undetermined.
return null;

严格地说，在Unix上，你没有选择，只能调用hostname(1)或- gethostname(2)。这是你电脑的名字。任何试图通过IP地址确定主机名的尝试，就像这样

InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName()

在某些情况下一定会失败:

The IP address might not resolve into any name. Bad DNS setup, bad system setup or bad provider setup may be the reason for this. A name in DNS can have many aliases called CNAMEs. These can only be resolved in one direction properly: name to address. The reverse direction is ambiguous. Which one is the "official" name? A host can have many different IP addresses - and each address can have many different names. Two common cases are: One ethernet port has several "logical" IP addresses or the computer has several ethernet ports. It is configurable whether they share an IP or have different IPs. This is called "multihomed". One Name in DNS can resolve to several IP Addresses. And not all of those addresses must be located on the same computer! (Usecase: A simple form of load-balancing) Let's not even start talking about dynamic IP addresses.

另外，不要将ip地址的名称与主机的名称(hostname)混淆。打个比方可能会更清楚:

There is a large city (server) called "London". Inside the city walls much business happens. The city has several gates (IP addresses). Each gate has a name ("North Gate", "River Gate", "Southampton Gate"...) but the name of the gate is not the name of the city. Also you cannot deduce the name of the city by using the name of a gate - "North Gate" would catch half of the bigger cities and not just one city. However - a stranger (IP packet) walks along the river and asks a local: "I have a strange address: 'Rivergate, second left, third house'. Can you help me?" The local says: "Of course, you are on the right road, simply go ahead and you will arrive at your destination within half an hour."

我认为这很好地说明了这一点。

好消息是:真实的主机名通常是不必要的。在大多数情况下，这台主机上任何解析为IP地址的名称都可以。(陌生人可能会从北门(Northgate)进入城市，但乐于助人的当地人会翻译“左边第二个”部分。)

在其余的情况下，您必须使用该配置设置的最终来源-这是C函数gethostname(2)。该函数也由程序主机名调用。
