Quickstart

Dependencies

This library requires IP2Location BIN database to function. You may download the BIN database at:

IP2Location LITE BIN Data (Free): https://lite.ip2location.com/

IP2Location Commercial BIN Data (Comprehensive): https://www.ip2location.com/

An outdated BIN database was provided in the databases folder for your testing. You are recommended to visit the above links to download the latest BIN database.

Requirements

1. Python 3.5 and above.

Installation

To install this module,

pip install IP2Location

Sample Code

Query geolocation information from BIN database

You can query the geolocation information from the IP2Location BIN database as below:

import os
import IP2Location

"""
    Cache the database into memory to accelerate lookup speed.
    WARNING: Please make sure your system have sufficient RAM to use this feature.
"""
# database = IP2Location.IP2Location(os.path.join("data", "IPV6-COUNTRY.BIN"), "SHARED_MEMORY")

# Default file I/O lookup
database = IP2Location.IP2Location(os.path.join("data", "IPV6-COUNTRY.BIN"))

rec = database.get_all("19.5.10.1")

print("Country Code          : " + rec.country_short)
print("Country Name          : " + rec.country_long)
print("Region Name           : " + rec.region)
print("City Name             : " + rec.city)
print("ISP Name              : " + rec.isp)
print("Latitude              : " + rec.latitude)
print("Longitude             : " + rec.longitude)
print("Domain Name           : " + rec.domain)
print("ZIP Code              : " + rec.zipcode)
print("Time Zone             : " + rec.timezone)
print("Net Speed             : " + rec.netspeed)
print("Area Code             : " + rec.idd_code)
print("IDD Code              : " + rec.area_code)
print("Weather Station Code  : " + rec.weather_code)
print("Weather Station Name  : " + rec.weather_name)
print("MCC                   : " + rec.mcc)
print("MNC                   : " + rec.mnc)
print("Mobile Carrier        : " + rec.mobile_brand)
print("Elevation             : " + rec.elevation)
print("Usage Type            : " + rec.usage_type)
print("Address Type          : " + rec.address_type)
print("Category              : " + rec.category)
print("District              : " + rec.district)
print("ASN                   : " + rec.asn)
print("AS                    : " + rec.as_name)
print("\nYou may download the DB26 sample BIN at http://www.ip2location.com/downloads/sample6.bin.db26.zip for full data display.")

Processing IP address using IP Tools class

You can manipulate IP address, IP number and CIDR as below:

import IP2Location
ipTools = IP2Location.IP2LocationIPTools()
print(str(ipTools.is_ipv4("8.8.8.8")))
print(str(ipTools.is_ipv6("2001:4860:4860::8888")))
print(ipTools.ipv4_to_decimal("8.8.8.8"))
print(ipTools.decimal_to_ipv4(134744072))
print(ipTools.ipv6_to_decimal("2001:4860:4860::8888"))
print(ipTools.decimal_to_ipv6(42541956123769884636017138956568135816))
print(ipTools.ipv4_to_cidr("8.0.0.0", "8.255.255.255"))
print(ipTools.cidr_to_ipv4("8.0.0.0/8"))
print(ipTools.ipv6_to_cidr("2002:0000:0000:1234:abcd:ffff:c0a8:0000", "2002:0000:0000:1234:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff"))
print(ipTools.cidr_to_ipv6("2002::1234:abcd:ffff:c0a8:101/64"))
print(ipTools.compressed_ipv6("2002:0000:0000:1234:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF"))
print(ipTools.expand_ipv6("2002::1234:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF"))

List down country information

You can query country information for a country from IP2Location Country Information CSV file as below:

import os
import IP2Location

# List country information
country = IP2Location.Country(os.path.join("data", "IP2LOCATION-COUNTRY-INFORMATION-BASIC.CSV"))
print(country.get_country_info("US"))

List down region information

You can get the region code by country code and region name from IP2Location ISO 3166-2 Subdivision Code CSV file as below:

import os
import IP2Location

# Get region code by country code and region
region = IP2Location.Region(os.path.join("data", "IP2LOCATION-ISO3166-2.CSV")
print(region.get_region_code("US", "California"))
