[Feature request] Using IPinfo.io for IP information (IP Geolocation + ASN)

Open abdullahdevrel opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I would like to recommend ipinfo.io for the IP data.

  • Provides highly accurate IP geolocation backed by our probe network infrastructure.
  • Free tier access token supports 50,000 requests per month.
  • IPinfo supports HTTPS/SSL encryption on all endpoints.
  • Tokenless access grants 1,000 requests per day.
  • Includes ASN and hostname information. Supports bulk enrichment through a single API endpoint. We also have a comprehensive integration library.

Usage example:

curl https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8
{
    "ip": "8.8.8.8",
    "hostname": "dns.google",
    "anycast": true,
    "city": "Mountain View",
    "region": "California",
    "country": "US",
    "loc": "37.4056,-122.0775",
    "org": "AS15169 Google LLC",
    "postal": "94043",
    "timezone": "America/Los_Angeles"
}

nitefood/asn is mentioned in https://github.com/jreisinger/checkip/issues/41. The project is switching to IPinfo for their IP data as well: https://github.com/nitefood/asn/issues/67#issuecomment-2118168978


Consider including IPinfo in the project for accurate data and generous free access. Please let me know what you think. Thank you very much.
