Introduction

SpyIP uses ip-api API to trace IP addresses. SpyIP is default synchronous and supports asynchronous operations. It is type annotated, PEP8 compliant, documented and unit tested.

Features

• Trace your own IP address

• Trace your own DNS

• Trace IP address by query

• Trace batch IP address

• Asynchronous supported

• Synchronous by default

• Type annotated

• Unit tested

• PEP8 compliant

• Documented

• Optimized

Installation

pip install spyip

Usage

Default synchronous use case for normal and easy to use.

from spyip import trace_me, trace_dns, trace_ip, trace_ip_batch # default synchronous functions


me = trace_me() # trace your own IP
print(me.json(indent=4)) # print as JSON with indent


dns = trace_dns() # trace your own DNS
print(dns.json()) # print as JSON


# trace by IP address (facebook.com)
ip = trace_ip(query="31.13.64.35")
print(ip.json()) # print as JSON

# set timeout
print(
    trace_ip(
        query="31.13.64.35",
        timeout=5,
    ).json()
)


# batch trace by IP address (facebook.com, google.com, github.com, microsoft.com, ...)
batch = trace_ip_batch(
    query_list=[
        '31.13.64.35', # facebook.com
        '142.250.193.206', # google.com
        '20.205.243.166', # github.com
        '20.236.44.162', # microsoft.com
    ],
)
print(batch) # print a list of IPResponse objects. (see below)

Advance asynchronous way to boost performance. Just a simple example to show how to use asyncio with SpyIP.

import asyncio

from spyip.backends.asynchronous import trace_me, trace_dns, trace_ip, trace_ip_batch # asynchronous functions


async def spy_trace_me():
    result = await trace_me()
    print(result)


async def spy_trace_dns():
    result = await trace_dns()
    print(result)


async def spy_trace_ip():
    result = await trace_ip(query="31.13.64.35")
    print(result)


async def spy_trace_ip_batch():
    result = await trace_ip_batch(
        query_list=[
            '31.13.64.35',  # facebook.com
            '142.250.193.206',  # google.com
            '20.205.243.166',  # github.com
            '20.236.44.162',  # microsoft.com
        ],
    )
    print(result)


async def main():
    '''Load all tasks'''
    await spy_trace_me()
    await spy_trace_dns()
    await spy_trace_ip()
    await spy_trace_ip_batch()

asyncio.run(main()) # run the main function

Localizations

Localized city, regionName and country can be translated to the following languages by passing lang argument to trace_me, trace_ip and trace_ip_batch functions. Default language is en (English). Here is the list of supported languages:

lang (ISO 639)	description
en	English (default)
de	Deutsch (German)
es	Español (Spanish)
pt-BR	Português - Brasil (Portuguese)
fr	Français (French)
ja	日本語 (Japanese)
zh-CN	中国 (Chinese)
ru	Русский (Russian)

Responses

Response objects are attrs for defining Response models. In SpyIP we have 2 response objects respectively:

1. IPResponse: for single IP address query

   @define
   class IPResponse:
       """
       Example response from API:
   
       {
           "status": "success",
           "continent": "Asia",
           "continentCode": "AS",
           "country": "India",
           "countryCode": "IN",
           "region": "DL",
           "regionName": "National Capital Territory of Delhi",
           "city": "New Delhi",
           "district": "",
           "zip": "110001",
           "lat": 28.6139,
           "lon": 77.209,
           "timezone": "Asia/Kolkata",
           "offset": 19800,
           "currency": "INR",
           "isp": "Google LLC",
           "org": "Google LLC",
           "as": "AS15169 Google LLC",
           "asname": "GOOGLE",
           "mobile": false,
           "proxy": false,
           "hosting": true,
           "query": "142.250.193.206",
       }
       """
   
       status: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Status of the request.'})
       continent: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Continent name.'})
       continentCode: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Continent code.'})
       country: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Country name.'})
       countryCode: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Country code.'})
       region: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Region code.'})
       regionName: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Region name.'})
       city: str = field(metadata={'description': 'City name.'})
       district: str = field(metadata={'description': 'District name.'})
       zip_: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Zip code.'}, alias='zip')
       lat: float = field(metadata={'description': 'Latitude.'})
       lon: float = field(metadata={'description': 'Longitude.'})
       timezone: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Timezone.'})
       offset: int = field(metadata={'description': 'Offset.'})
       currency: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Currency.'})
       isp: str = field(metadata={'description': 'ISP name.'})
       org: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Organization name.'})
       as_: str = field(metadata={'description': 'AS number and name.'}, alias='as_')
       asname: str = field(metadata={'description': 'AS name.'})
       mobile: bool = field(metadata={'description': 'Mobile status.'})
       proxy: bool = field(metadata={'description': 'Proxy status.'})
       hosting: bool = field(metadata={'description': 'Hosting status.'})
       query: str = field(metadata={'description': 'IP address.'})
   

2. DNSResponse: for DNS query

   @define
   class DNSResponse:
       """
       Example response from API:
       "dns": {
           "ip": "74.125.73.83",
           "geo": "United States - Google"
       }
       """
   
       ip: str = field(metadata={'description': 'IP address.'})
       geo: str = field(metadata={'description': 'Geo location.'})
   

In batch query, trace_ip_batch returns a list of IPResponse objects (List[IPResponse]). You can just iterate over the list and use as you need.

Exceptions

SpyIP has 3 custom exceptions:

• TooManyRequests - raised when you exceed the API rate limit.
• ConnectionTimeout - raised when connection times out.
• StatusError - raised when API returns an error status.

Tests

Test cases are located in tests directory. You can run tests with the following commands:

# run all tests in tests directory at once
python -m unittest discover -s tests

# run asynchronous tests
python tests/test_asynchronous.py

# run synchronous tests
python tests/test_synchronous.py

Average Time Comparisons:

Types	Tests	Time
Total tests	12	6.188s
Asynchronous	6	2.751s
Synchronous	6	2.968s

Note: This time comparison is based on network performance and hardware capabilities. I am using a very old low-configuration laptop and running on Python 3.11.7. This result may vary depending on your system resources.
