# Code Snippets

The Code Snippets page provides practical examples and commands for leveraging IPinfo's data, services, and libraries.

**Extract only IPv4 addresses using the [IPinfo CLI](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli) from any text**

`-o` stands for only and `-4` is for IPv4.

```bash
cat ./acesss_logs | ipinfo grepip -o -4
```

**Create an [IPinfo summary report](/tools/summarize-ips) from IP addresseses**

The command will return a link where your summary report will be available.

```bash
cat iplist.txt | curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "ipinfo.io/tools/summarize-ips?cli=1"
```

**Create an [IPinfo map](/tools/map) from IP addresseses**

The command will provide a link for your IPinfo map.

```bash
cat iplist.txt | curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "https://ipinfo.io/tools/map?cli=1"
```

**Get a list of IPv4 prefixes owned by an [ASN](/developers/asn) using JQ**

```bash
curl "ipinfo.io/AS7922/json?token=$TOKEN" | jq -r '.prefixes[].netblock'
```

# IPinfo Developer Resource

The quickest and easiest way to get started with IPinfo is to use one of our [official libraries](/developers/libraries), which are available for many popular programming languages and frameworks. If you'd like to write your own library or interact directly with our API, then the documentation below can help you.

## Authentication

Your API token is used to authenticate you with our API and can be provided either as an HTTP Basic Auth username, a bearer token, or alternatively as a token URL parameter.

```bash
# With Basic Auth
curl -u $TOKEN: ipinfo.io

# With Bearer token
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" ipinfo.io

# With token query parameter
curl ipinfo.io?token=$TOKEN
```

Authentication

## JSON Response

We try to automatically detect when someone wants to call our API versus view our website, and then we send back the appropriate JSON response rather than HTML. We do this based on the user agent for known popular programming languages, tools, and frameworks. However, there are a couple of other ways to force a JSON response when it doesn't happen automatically.

One is to append `/json` at the end of any request:

```bash
curl ipinfo.io/json
curl ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8/json
```

The other is to set the `Accept` header to `application/json`:

```bash
curl -H "Accept: application/json" ipinfo.io
curl -H "Accept: application/json" ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8
```

JSON Response

## IP Address Parameter

The API supports passing in a single IPv4 or IPv6 IP address. Alternatively, if you do not pass in any IP address, we'll return details for the calling address. This allows you to look up your own (or a visitor to your site) IP address details without knowing the IP address in advance.

```bash
# Get details for 8.8.8.8
curl ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8?token=$TOKEN

# Get details for 2001:4860:4860::8888
curl ipinfo.io/2001:4860:4860::8888?token=$TOKEN

# Get details for your own IP address, which'll be included in the response
curl ipinfo.io?token=$TOKEN
```

IP Address Parameter

## HTTPS/ SSL

Our API is available over a secure HTTPS connection for all users. Simply add `https://` to the request URLs to make the requests secure.

```bash
# Get details for your own IP address over HTTPS
curl https://ipinfo.io?token=$TOKEN
```

HTTPS/ SSL

## Rate Limits

IPinfo Lite offers unlimited access to our API.

Paid plans include monthly request limits with configurable alerts to help you stay in control. If you exceed your plan’s limit, you’ll receive a 429 HTTP status code—but with metered billing, you can automatically extend your usage without interruptions.

[Paid plans](/pricing) come with higher monthly limits, and configurable alerts.

Rate Limits

## Filtering Responses

You can filter the API response down to specific fields or objects by adding the field or object name to the URL. In the case of a field you'll get it returned in plaintext, and an object will get returned as JSON.

```bash
# Get json the org field as plaintext
curl ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8/org?token=$TOKEN
AS15169 Google Inc.

# Get just the city as plaintext
curl ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8/city?token=$TOKEN
Mountain View

# Get country ISO code as plaintext
curl ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8/country?token=$TOKEN
US
```

Filtering Responses

## JSONP/ CORS Requests

JSONP and CORS are supported, allowing you to use ipinfo.io entirely in client-side code. For JSONP you just need to specify the callback parameter, e.g. `http://ipinfo.io/?callback=callback&token=$TOKEN`.

**Request visitor data using Fetch API (Promise)**

```javascript
fetch("https://ipinfo.io/json?token=$TOKEN")
  .then((response) => response.json())
  .then((jsonResponse) => console.log(jsonResponse.ip, jsonResponse.country));
```

**Request visitor data using Fetch API (Async/Await)**

```javascript
const request = await fetch("https://ipinfo.io/json?token=$TOKEN");
const jsonResponse = await request.json();

console.log(jsonResponse.ip, jsonResponse.country);
```

**Request visitor data using JSONP**

```html
<script>
  function recordData(data) {
    console.log(data.ip, data.country);
  }
</script>
<script src="https://ipinfo.io/json?callback=recordData"></script>
```

JSONP/ CORS Requests

## IPv6 API endpoint

IPinfo's API ensures seamless support for both IPv4 and IPv6 connection. However, for technical reasons, we use distinct API endpoints:

- **IPv4 connection:** [ipinfo.io](https://ipinfo.io/)
- **IPv6 connection:** [v6.ipinfo.io](https://v6.ipinfo.io/)

If you're on an IPv6 address, use the **[v6.ipinfo.io](https://v6.ipinfo.io/)** API endpoint, which functions identically to the standard IPv4 API. All API parameters and arguments are supported as usual.

Example:

```bash
curl https://v6.ipinfo.io
```

Our website, however, is fully dual-stacked, supporting both IPv4 and IPv6 natively through the [ipinfo.io](https://ipinfo.io/) domain. Our IP data download product always includes both IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses in each individual database download. If you are looking up IPv6 addresses as an API parameter or input, you can do so simply as well. Usage of [v6.ipinfo.io](https://v6.ipinfo.io/) only applies to IPv6 traffic visiting our API service.

**Why Separate API Endpoints?**

By separating the API endpoints, we prevent unintended behavior when tools default to IPv6 (via AAAA records). This ensures you receive the expected address type for your query. Because if we have A and AAAA records for the domain (supporting both v4 and v6), the users would get their v6 address back when they go to ipinfo.io's API (internet services usually default to v6 if it’s available), which is not usually what they expect.

IPv6 API endpoint

## Updated API System

With the release of our [IPinfo Lite API service](https://ipinfo.io/lite), we are rolling out a new API system available at `https://api.ipinfo.io`. This API system is much more robust in handling billions of requests and addresses DNS level issues with IPv6 and IPv4 connections. We are actively developing the API system and [we welcome feedback and queries from our IPinfo user community](https://community.ipinfo.io/). It supports our existing authentication methods as well.

**IP Lookup query - IPinfo Lite API**

```bash
curl http://api.ipinfo.io/lite/104.28.246.147?token=$TOKEN
```

```json
{
  "ip": "104.28.246.147",
  "asn": "AS13335",
  "as_name": "Cloudflare, Inc.",
  "as_domain": "cloudflare.com",
  "country_code": "SG",
  "country": "Singapore",
  "continent_code": "AS",
  "continent": "Asia"
}
```

**IP Lookup query - IPinfo Lite API Visitor/User**

The `/me` endpoint provides the IP information of the visitor the URL.

```bash
curl https://api.ipinfo.io/lite/me?token=$TOKEN
```

```json
{
  "ip": "8.8.8.8",
  "asn": "AS15169",
  "as_name": "Google LLC",
  "as_domain": "google.com",
  "country_code": "US",
  "country": "United States",
  "continent_code": "NA",
  "continent": "North America"
}
```

**Simplified API system for IPv6 connections**

Our new API system is dual stacked, making it easier for users on IPv6 connections. You can access the API seamlessly without needing to switch endpoints.

```bash
curl -6 https://api.ipinfo.io/lite/me?token=$TOKEN
```

```json
{
  "ip": "2602:f8de::",
  "asn": "AS53356",
  "as_name": "Free Range Cloud Hosting Inc.",
  "as_domain": "freerangecloud.com",
  "country_code": "US",
  "country": "United States",
  "continent_code": "NA",
  "continent": "North America"
}
```

```bash
curl -4 https://api.ipinfo.io/lite/me?token=$TOKEN
```

```json
{
  "ip": "102.135.36.0",
  "asn": "AS208485",
  "as_name": "Nese Mala trading as Moon Dc",
  "as_domain": "moondc.com",
  "country_code": "TR",
  "country": "Turkey",
  "continent_code": "AS",
  "continent": "Asia"
}
```

**Explicity IPv4 and IPv6 endpoint - IPinfo Lite API**

For IPv4 connections, you can prepend the API endpoint with the subdomain `v4`.

```bash
curl https://v4.api.ipinfo.io/lite/me?token=$TOKEN
curl https://v4.api.ipinfo.io/lite/8.8.8.8?token=$TOKEN
```

For IPv6 connections, you can prepend the API endpoint with the subdomain `v6`.

```bash
curl https://v6.api.ipinfo.io/lite/me?token=$TOKEN
curl https://v6.api.ipinfo.io/lite/8.8.8.8?token=$TOKEN
```

curl https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8?token=$TOKEN
```

```json
{
  ...
  "company": {
    "name": "Google LLC",
    "domain": "google.com",
    "type": "business"
  }
}
```

> **Note**: The ability of IPInfo to tell the company depends on the size of the company and how it runs its network. 
>
> Suppose, WeWork NYC has rented its space to a startup. If someone from that startups visits your website, we might not be able to identify the company since it's small and uses its building's network. We will, however, be able to tell you that it's from WeWork.

Company Data

## Hosted Domains Data

**Available in**: IPinfo Business, and IPinfo Enterprise

[Hosted Domains Data](/products/reverse-ip-api) returns the `total` count of domains being hosted on the IP address and a list of domains.

```bash
curl "https://ipinfo.io/66.87.125.72?token=$TOKEN"
```

```json
{
  ...
  "domains": {
    "ip": "8.8.8.8",
    "total": 11606,
    "domains": [
      "41.cn",
      "onionflix.cc",
      "newmax.info",
      "ftempurl.com",
      "itempurl.com"
    ]
  }
}
```

The number of domains returned per API request depends on the user's pricing tier:

- IPinfo Business tier: Up to 5 domains are returned per API request.
- IPinfo Enterprise tier: Up to 1,000 domains are returned per API request.
- Hosted Domains database download: Up to 1,000 domains are available per IP address entry.

Both IPinfo Business and IPinfo Enterprise users have access to a total of 1,000 domain names. However, on the IPinfo Business tier, users must go through paginated records to access more domain names.

The documentation and API parameters for the Hosted Domains endpoint are available in the [Hosted Domains API documentation section](/developers/hosted-domains).

Hosted Domains Data

## Abuse Contact Data

**Available in**: IPinfo Business, and IPinfo Enterprise

[Abuse Contact Data](/products/ip-abuse-contact-api) is contact information (usually of the network administrator) which can be used to report IP addresses that are engaged in fraudulent/malicious activites.

    "2a00:2381:2ebf:100::/56",
    ...
  ]
}
```

Even though the foundational data of the IP ranges API is based on the [IP to Company Database](https://ipinfo.io/products/ip-company-database), the API accepts domain inputs that ultimately resolve to an organization's domain. The target domain that the input domain redirects to is mentioned in the `redirects_to` key.

```bash
curl https://ipinfo.io/ranges/times.com?token=$TOKEN
```

```json
{
  "domain": "times.com",
  "redirects_to": "nytimes.com",
  "num_ranges": 24,
  "ranges": [
    "80.4.179.80/28",
    "97.67.74.80/29",
    "2a00:2381:2ebf::/56",
    "194.73.217.40/29",
    "2a00:2381:2ebf:100::/56",
    ...
  ]
}
```

Responses

## Batching Requests

Our `/batch` API endpoint allows you to group up to 1000 IPinfo API requests into a single request. This can really speed up processing of bulk IP lookups, and it can also be useful if you want to lookup information across our different APIs.

The `/batch` endpoint takes a list of URLs and responds with a JSON object with the input URLs as keys and the responses as values. The list of URLs can be provided as a newline separated list of URLs or a JSON object. Here are examples of both approaches along with the corresponding content-type headers needed. First, with a JSON array:

```bash
curl -XPOST --data '["8.8.8.8/country", "8.8.4.4/country"]' "ipinfo.io/batch?token=$TOKEN"
```

```json
{
  "8.8.4.4/country": "US",
  "8.8.8.8/country": "US"
}
```

Second, as a newline separated list of URLs:

```bash
echo -e '8.8.8.8/country\n8.8.4.4/country' | \
curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "ipinfo.io/batch?token=$TOKEN"
```
Or, 
```bash
cat urlList | curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "ipinfo.io/batch?token=$TOKEN"
```

```json
{
  "8.8.4.4/country": "US",
  "8.8.8.8/country": "US"
}
```

There is also an optional `filter` parameter, which if set will result in any URLs for which there's no response being removed from the response. This can be useful for things like finding hostnames that exist for a range of IPs:

```bash
# Without filter
$ echo -e '8.8.8.8/hostname\n8.8.8.9/hostname' |  curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "ipinfo.io/batch?token=$TOKEN"
{
  "8.8.8.8/hostname": "dns.google",
  "8.8.8.9/hostname": ""
}

# With filter
$ echo -e '8.8.8.8/hostname\n8.8.8.9/hostname' |  curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "ipinfo.io/batch?token=$TOKEN&filter=1"
{
  "8.8.8.8/hostname": "dns.google",
}
```
Note that for the purposes of request volume tracking the call to `/batch` isn't counted, but all of the URLs within the call are. So the example above counts as 2 requests, and a single call to `/batch` with 100 URLs would count as 100 requests.

The batch endpoint works across all of our APIs. So you can use it with our ASN, IP ranges, and hosted domains endpoints too.

Batching Requests

## Command Line Interface (CLI)

To help with wrangling with our data on the command line, including doing batch requests trivially, you can try out our [IPinfo CLI](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli).

The CLI allows you to look up IP details in bulk or one-by-one, summarize the details of up to 1000 IPs at a time, open a map of IP locations for any set of IPs, filter IPv4 & IPv6 addresses from any input, print out IP lists for any CIDR or IP range, and much more.

See [installation instructions](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli#installation) for details on how to get setup.

Command Line Interface (CLI)

Advanced Usage

# IP Database Download Developer Resource

## Getting Started

You can download your subscribed IPinfo database in two different ways:

- Database download from your dashboard on the webpage
- Database download from using `cURL` on your terminal

**Option 1: Database download from the account dashboard**

You can visit the [Data Downloads](https://ipinfo.io/account/data-downloads) page to download your IPinfo database.

*Or,* you can go to:

1. your account [Dashboard](https://ipinfo.io/account/home)
2. select [Data Downloads](https://ipinfo.io/account/data-downloads)
3. and from there if you scroll down you will find your database that you can have subscribed to.

![Video showing steps to download a database file from the dashboard](https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/docs/getting-started-with-database/data-download-dashboard.gif)

**Option 2: Database download using `cURL`**

You can also download your IPinfo database using `cURL`. Please make sure you add the `-L` flag to your `cURL` command, which enables `cURL` to follow redirects.

```bash
curl -L https://ipinfo.io/data/location.csv.gz?token=$TOKEN -o location.csv.gz
```

![Image showing steps to download a database file with cURL](https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/docs/getting-started-with-database/data-download-terminal.gif)

We use `gzip` to compress our database. After downloading the database, you can extract the content or decompress the database using `gzip`, `gunzip`, or any compression software of your choice.

## Database Operations

**Getting specific country location**

You can filter out the IP addresses from any specific country by using the `grep` command from your terminal. One thing to remember is that you must start and end the country code with commas, for example: `,US,`, `,IN,`, `,CA,` etc.

```bash
(head -1 location.csv;grep ",US," location.csv) > location_us.csv
```

If you use the solution above, your outputted CSV file will contain the header row as well.

![Image showing how to get specific country by location](https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/docs/getting-started-with-database/getting-country-by-location.gif)

**Filtering the database with multiple countries/ASNs**

Like filtering the database based on a single country or ASN, creating a sub-database containing multiple specific countries or ASNs is also possible. Let’s demonstrate that using multiple country filters. Get started by creating a text file(`countries.txt`) that contains your target countries in the following fashion:

```bash
,CA,
,FR,
,US,
,DE,
,UK,
```

As we will be using grep, your country code information must include the starting and trailing commas. Then using the -f option (stands for fixed-strings) run the following command.

```bash
(head -1 location.csv;grep -f countries.txt location.csv) > filtered_location.csv
```

This will create a filtered_locations.csv contains IP information of only the countries included in the countries.txt filter list.

![Image showing filtering the CSV database based on multiple country inputs](https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/docs/getting-started-with-database/multiple-country-filter.gif)

**Convert IP addresses to IP ranges**

If you want to convert the IP address range columns (`start_ip`, `end_ip`) to their CIDR equivalent, you can use our [IPinfo CLI app](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli). The `range2cidr` command of the IPinfo CLI will convert the two columns to their individual CIDR equivalent. For example:

| Input (Start IP - End IP) | Output (CIDR) |
| --- | --- |
| 91.232.89.0 — 91.232.89.255 | 91.232.89.0/24 |

![Image showing how to convert IP addresses to IP ranges](https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/docs/getting-started-with-database/cidr2range.gif)

How to use the range2cidr command:

1. Install the [IPinfo CLI from GitHub](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli)
2. Unzip the downloaded IPinfo CSV database
3. Run then `range2cidr` command of the IPinfo CLI and save the output to a file
4. The outputted file would have the `start_ip` and `end_ip` columns converted to `cidr` column

```bash
ipinfo range2cidr location.csv > location_range.csv
```

**Exploring `MMDB` files using mmdbctl**

Our open source [mmdbtctl](https://github.com/ipinfo/mmdbctl) makes exploration and management of MMDB files exceptionally easy.

Feel free to explore the documentation here: https://github.com/ipinfo/mmdbctl

| Code Snippet | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `mmdbctl read -f json-pretty 8.8.8.8 location.mmdb` | Lookup specific IP address (8.8.8.8) and output information as JSON from location.mmdb file |
| `mmdbctl read 8.8.8.0/31 location.mmdb` | Checking CIDR (8.8.8.0/31) data |
| `mmdbctl read 8.8.8.0-8.8.8.1 location.mmdb` | Getting IP range (8.8.8.0-8.8.8.1) data |
| `mmdbctl import --in data.csv --out data.mmdb` | Converting a CSV file (data.csv) to an MMDB file (data.mmdb) |
| `mmdbctl export data.mmdb data.csv` | Outputting CSV data (data.csv) from MMDB file (data.mmdb) |

![Image showing how to explore files using mmdbctl command](https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/docs/getting-started-with-database/mmdbctl-demo.gif)


**Using MMDB reader libraries**

If you want to read the MMDB database file using a programming language, you can use an MMDB reader library. The MMDB reader libraries supported by IPinfo are:

- [C](https://github.com/maxmind/libmaxminddb)
- [C#](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-dotnet)
- [Java](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-java)
- [Perl](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-perl)
- [PHP](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-php)
- [Python](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-python)
- [Ruby](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-ruby)
- [Nodejs](https://github.com/runk/node-maxmind)

Using the MMDB reader library, you can open the database and lookup an IP address. Using the mmdbctl tool, you can create your own custom MMDB databases as well. If you need any assistance with using these libraries, feel free to reach out to us.

**Rate limit for data downloads**

We restrict the number of times a database can be downloaded to ten (10) times per day. This restriction applies to each unique IP address for an individual device. However, we are happy to accommodate requests to increase download limits. [Learn more about rate limits on data downloads.](https://community.ipinfo.io/t/announcement-we-are-adding-rate-limits-to-data-downloads/358)

**Checksums API endpoint**

Checksums are essential for ensuring data integrity and security. By comparing the calculated hash values with the provided checksums, users can verify that their downloaded files haven't been tampered with or corrupted during transit.

We offer checksums API endpoints for every data download, supporting all the file formats. Checksums API response includes three hash values: md5, sha1, and sha256. Aside from the API endpoint, you can view checksums from your [data downloads page](https://ipinfo.io/account/data-downloads) on your account dashboard.

```bash
curl https://ipinfo.io/data/free/country.csv.gz/checksums?token=$TOKEN
```

```json
{
  "checksums": {
    "md5": "75405cbe6ae89342dc4c58eede9f4bb2",
    "sha1": "8713da968c5bc0d89eba45ea349f75ac5569e21a",
    "sha256": "376f8148b250948bd236c00f4a00c95d2a22696ed3313141e9666af852f9bf1c"
  }
}

## Ecosystem Integrations

![IPinfo Data Consumption methods explained](https://cdn.ipinfo.io/static/images/docs/getting-started-with-database/data_consumption_compared.png)

Through our ecosystem integrations program you can access IPinfo's data download capabilities in a number of leading data, IT and security software platforms. Compared to the standard data download and data push mechanisms, our ecosystem integrations offer more enhanced user benefits including; 'on-platform' purchases, out of the box optimized user functions and often an easier path for integrating IPinfo's data across the broader enterprise technology landscape.

Some of the platforms we currently support are:

- Snowflake via [Snowflake Marketplace](https://ipinfo.io/snowflake)
- Google BigQuery via [Google Analytics Hub](https://console.cloud.google.com/bigquery/analytics-hub/exchanges;cameo=analyticshub;pageName=search;pageResource=?visibility=&queryText=ipinfo)
- [Graylog Cloud](https://go2docs.graylog.org/4-1/what_is_graylog/what_is_graylog_cloud.html)
- [Splunk](https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4070)

The data push mechanism, although it will deliver the data at your specified interval, it does not facilitate usage of the data across different marketplaces and does not include any out of the box optimized user functions.

If you are interested in exploring our ecosystem integrations, or have a requirement for an integration that we do not currently support, please contact alliances@ipinfo.io

# Code Snippets

The Code Snippets page provides practical examples and commands for leveraging IPinfo's data, services, and libraries.

**Extract only IPv4 addresses using the [IPinfo CLI](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli) from any text**

`-o` stands for only and `-4` is for IPv4.

```bash
cat ./acesss_logs | ipinfo grepip -o -4
```

**Create an [IPinfo summary report](/tools/summarize-ips) from IP addresseses**

The command will return a link where your summary report will be available.

```bash
cat iplist.txt | curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "ipinfo.io/tools/summarize-ips?cli=1"
```

**Create an [IPinfo map](/tools/map) from IP addresseses**

The command will provide a link for your IPinfo map.

```bash
cat iplist.txt | curl -XPOST --data-binary @- "https://ipinfo.io/tools/map?cli=1"
```

**Get a list of IPv4 prefixes owned by an [ASN](/developers/asn) using JQ**

```bash
curl "ipinfo.io/AS7922/json?token=$TOKEN" | jq -r '.prefixes[].netblock'
```

## For frameworks

We also maintain some official libraries for popular web frameworks. These offer framework specific middleware so that with just a few lines of code you can get IPinfo data for every visitor to your site. They also include functionality like user agent filtering, so you can reduce your request volumes by not looking up details for bots and spiders.

| Framework | Source code                                              | Package                                                                     |

For frameworks

## Command Line Interface (CLI)

If you prefer to use our APIs from the command line, we have you covered: try out our [IPinfo CLI](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli).

The CLI allows you to look up IP details in bulk or one-by-one, summarize the details of up to 1000 IPs at a time, open a map of IP locations for any set of IPs, filter IPv4 & IPv6 addresses from any input, print out IP lists for any CIDR or IP range, and much more.

See [installation instructions](https://github.com/ipinfo/cli#installation) for details on how to get setup.

## Third party libraries

There are a large number of unofficial IPinfo libraries written by third parties. While these are not maintained by us and haven't been tested by us they can be a great way to get started quickly with IPinfo if you're using a language or framework that we don't have an official library for. [Search GitHub for IPinfo libraries](https://github.com/search?q=ipinfo.io).
