2ip.me API Client.

Project description

Python 2ip Module

2ip allows you to make requests to the 2ip.me API to retrieve provider/geographic information for IP addresses. Requests are (optionally, on by default) cached to prevent unnecessary API lookups when possible.

Installation

Install the module from PyPI:

python3 -m pip install 2ip

Methods

The following methods are available.

TwoIP (Initialisation)

When initialising the 2ip module the following parameters may be specified:

  • Optional key: The API key to use for lookups. If no API key defined the API lookups will use the rate limited free API.

geo

The geographic lookup method accepts the following parameters:

  • Required ip: The IP address to lookup.
  • Optional format {json,xml}: The output format for the request. json will return a dict and xml will return a string.
  • Optional force {True,False}: Force an API lookup even if there is a cache entry.
  • Optional cache {True,False}: Allow the lookup result to be cached.

provider

The provider lookup method accepts the following parameters:

  • Required ip: The IP address to lookup.
  • Optional format {json,xml}: The output format for the request. json will return a dict and xml will return a string.
  • Optional force {True,False}: Force an API lookup even if there is a cache entry.
  • Optional cache {True,False}: Allow the lookup result to be cached.

Examples

Some example scripts are included in the examples directory.

Provider API

Retrieve provider information for the IP address 192.0.2.0 as a dict:

>>> from twoip import TwoIP
>>> twoip = TwoIP(key = None)
>>> twoip.provider(ip = '192.0.2.0')
{'ip': '192.0.2.0',
 'ip_range_end': '3221226239',
 'ip_range_start': '3221225984',
 'mask': '24',
 'name_ripe': 'Reserved AS',
 'name_rus': '',
 'route': '192.0.2.0'}

Retrieve provider information for the IP address 192.0.2.0 as a XML string:

>>> from twoip import TwoIP
>>> twoip = TwoIP(key = None)
>>> twoip.provider(ip = '192.0.2.0', format = 'xml')
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n<provider_api><ip>192.0.2.0</ip><name_ripe>Reserved AS</name_ripe><name_rus></name_rus><ip_range_start>3221225984</ip_range_start><ip_range_end>3221226239</ip_range_end><route>192.0.2.0</route><mask>24</mask></provider_api>'

Geographic API

Retrieve geographic information for the IP address 8.8.8.8 as a dict:

>>> from twoip import TwoIP
>>> twoip = TwoIP(key = None)
>>> twoip.geo(ip = '8.8.8.8')
{'city': 'Mountain view',
 'country': 'United states of america',
 'country_code': 'US',
 'country_rus': 'США',
 'country_ua': 'США',
 'ip': '8.8.8.8',
 'latitude': '37.405992',
 'longitude': '-122.078515',
 'region': 'California',
 'region_rus': 'Калифорния',
 'region_ua': 'Каліфорнія',
 'time_zone': '-08:00',
 'zip_code': '94043'}

Retrieve geographic information for the IP address 8.8.8.8 as a XML string:

>>> from twoip import TwoIP
>>> twoip = TwoIP(key = None)
>>> twoip.geo(ip = '8.8.8.8', format = 'xml')
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n<geo_api><ip>8.8.8.8</ip><country_code>US</country_code><country>United states of america</country><country_rus>США</country_rus><country_ua>США</country_ua><region>California</region><region_rus>Калифорния</region_rus><region_ua>Каліфорнія</region_ua><city>Mountain view</city><latitude>37.405992</latitude><longitude>-122.078515</longitude><zip_code>94043</zip_code><time_zone>-08:00</time_zone></geo_api>'

Roadmap/Todo

  • Support for email API
  • Support for MAC address API
  • Support for hosting API
  • Option to retrieve data as XML
  • Unit tests
  • Deduplicate handler to retrieve information from API
